Table Tennis Tips

A real low and short no-spin serve can give you some easy points in matches, as they are difficult to flip hard, and they require good timing to push hard. Mix it up with a heavy backspin in the same spot. Remember to get it short, the ball should bounce short on your side close to the net...

Sponge hardness table

These hardness measurements were done with a specialised foam durometer. Although the durometer measurement are accurate, the sample required for absolute measurements need to be at least 10mm thick, and obviously without a topsheet attached. By testing a series of known hardness samples, and seeing how the readings were affected with only a 2.2mm sample and a topsheet attached, I have adjusted the values accordingly. So the absolute values may not be quite right, but values should be quite accurate relative to each other.

Note: In a few cases I've measured more than one sheet of the same type, so I've included all readings which is useful to see the variations among the sheets.
