Pro Specials Pro Specials include a specific combination of a professional blade and two rubbers pre-assembled at Paddle Palace. See pages 2-4 for details. Blade Selection Guide Blade style Shakehand and Penhold are the two basic blade types. If you hold the paddle like you are shaking hands, then you should choose a Shakehand blade. Over 90% of the blades we sell are Shakehand style. If you hold your paddle like you would hold a pen or chopsticks, then you should choose a Penhold blade. There are two styles of penhold blades: Chii nese and Japanese. The Chinese style normally has a rounded head,, similar to a shakehand blade head but often somewhat smaller. The Chinese-style handle is smaller and shorter than a shakehand handle. The Japanese-style penhold blade has a handle with a protrusion on one or both sides around which the player wraps the index finger. The Japanese-style st blade head is often more squarish in shape than the Chinese-style penhold, but it can vary from roundish to squarish, so check the image. (See the Penhold Blade section on pages 40 to 45). Handle style Handle style is a personal decision. The shape and size of the handle that feels best in your hand is what you should use. For shakehand players, flared handles are the most popular, followed by anatomic and straight. The code for flared is FL, straight is ST, anatomic is AN, and conic is HANDLE SHAPES: Shakehand Flared = FL LEFT, RIGHT ERGONOMIC ANATOMIC CONIC FLARED STRAIGHT Comparison Chart Key HANDLE SHAPES: Penhold ERGONOMIC JAPANESE JAPANESE CHINESE Anatomic = AN Straight = ST J-1, J-2 = Penhold Japanese-style C = Penhold Chinese Style CO. STIGA offers two sizes of flared handles, Flared-Large (aka Legend) and Flared-Small (aka Master). The codes for these are FL (lg) and FL (sm). The DONIC Dotec blades have a unique cork handle that is designed for either a left-hander or right-hander. The code is LEFT and RIGHT. NITTAKU offers a few blades with a unique ergonomic handle, ERGO, which is comfortable for using with both a shakehand or penhold grip. Penhold blades are available in either Chinese-style or Japanese-style. Chinese-style is the most popular. All Chinese-style penhold blades (C) are suitable for putting either one or two rubbers on the blade. Some Japanese-style penhold blades are designed for applying just one rubber (J-1), and some are suitable for applying either one or two rubbers (J-2). Speed The CLASS speed ratings of the blades range from the fastest rating of OFF+ to the slowest rating of DEF-. (OFF means offensive, ALL means allaround, and DEF means defensive). In general, offensive-style players prefer blades ranging from OFF+ to ALL+. Allround players prefer blades ranging from OFF- to ALL-. Defensive players prefer ALL to DEF- blades. Besides the CLASS ratings, Paddle Palace has a universal number rating system for speed and control so that blades from all the various brands can be compared on the same scale. In basic terms, the faster the speed rating, the farther the ball bounces off of the blade, given an equal amount of force. Keep in mind that generally the faster the blade, the more skill it takes to control it. Also, the rubber applied to the blade makes a huge difference in the speed and control of the paddle. A player’s skill level, playing style, rubber used, and interaction of those factors, impact the amount of speed and control that a player experiences. Therefore, the speed and control ratings are only a general tool for choosing a blade, as they are not an inherent quality of the blade. Weight Most blades weigh between 70 and 100 grams before rubber is applied. An average weight is around 86 grams. Some players feel that a heavier blade provides more power but other players would disagree. Some players feel that a lighter blade is quicker, but again, there are varying opinions on this. Remember that power and quickness are not just functions of the blade, but mainly the skills of the player. Like handle style, the ideal blade weight is the weight that feels best. Note: individual blade weight may vary slightly. Plies COMBO SPECIALS Combo Specials are custom-made racquets which include the shakehand blade plus two rubber sheets of your choice* from any of these brands: NITTAKU TIBHAR JUIC DONIC DR NEUBAUER YASAKA Good through 3/31/2012 STIGA HALLMARK * Extra charge for each rubber priced over $40 Up to $40 = no extra charge ($40 - $45) = $10 ($45 - $50) = $15 ($50 - $55) = $20 ($55 - $60) = $25 ($60 - $65) = $30 FREE SHIPPING >> Orders over $60 (see p. 96) The number of plies (wood layers) of a blade normally ranges from one to seven. Five-ply blades are the most common. Over 70% of players use an all-wood blade. There are many blades on the market that add thin plies of materials such as carbon, glass fibre, titanium or kevlar to an otherwise all-wood blade. These non-wood plies may add speed or a different feel to a blade. Some players feel that mixed-ply blades offer a larger sweet spot, and/or possibly result in added control. With or without non-wood plies, every blade has a unique feel, and only by experimenting will you discover what works best for your game. For each we indicate the number and composition of the plies. These are: W=Wood, C=Carbon, G=Glass Fibre, X=Texalium, T=Titanium, U=Aluminum, K=Kevlar, S=Synthetic, A=Arylate, R=Aramid See PaddlePalace.com for latest SPECIALS 10 BLADES+COMBOS O OFFICIAL EQUIPMENT SPONSOR OF THE CHINESE S NATIONAL TEAM N OFFICIAL BALL OF U.S. OPEN & U.S. NATIONALS and CANADIAN TABLE TENNIS ASSOCIATION CLASS RATINGS K E Y SPEED CONTROL NITTAKU BLADES COMPARISON CHART page 35 PRO Look for this sign for blades that are available as PRO SPECIALS.

The Chinese style normally has a rounded head, similar to a shakehand blade head but often somewhat smaller. The Chinese-style handle is smaller and shorter than a shakehand handle. The Japanese-style penhold has a handle with a protrusion on one or both sides around which the player wraps the index finger. The Japanese-style blade head is often more squarish in shape than the Chinese-style penhold, but it can vary from roundish to squarish, so check the image. Penhold-style blades are used by fewer than 10% of players in T North America, although the popularity in Asia is 20% to 40%, with the younger players favoring the shakehand style. All Chinese-style penhold blades (C) are suitable for putting either one or two rubbers on the blade. Some Japanese-style penhold blades are designed for applying just one rubber (J-1), and some are suitable for applying either one or two rubbers (J-2).

The rubber is custom-assembled to a blade after the player makes their blade and rubber choices. Paddle Palace will assemble rubber to the blade as a free service upon request. One rubber sheet covers one side of a blade, so shakehand blades require two rubbers. ITTF regulations require red rubber on one side and black on the other. Rubber Types There are four main types of rubber sheets: Smooth, Short Pips, Long Pips, and Anti-Topspin. Smooth: Most players in the modern game of table tennis use smooth rubber, also called “inverted” rubber. The surface of the rubber is smooth with a layer of sponge underneath. Smooth rubber provides the most spin and is used by over 85% of tournament players. Hitters, loopers, all-around players and defensive players all use smooth inverted rubber. Short Pips: Short pips rubber, also called “pimpled” rubber, has a bumpy surface and usually has a layer of sponge underneath. It is used by players who do not execute a great deal of spin in their game. Some close-to-the-table hitters, all-around players, and defensive players use short pips. Short pips often provide more control for players who have difficulty playing against spin. “Hard rubber” is the term for short pips rubber with no sponge, and it is used primarily for the old-fashioned “Classic” or “Hardbat” play. Long Pips: Long pips rubber has extra-long pips that reverse the spin of the opponent. The unpredictability of the spin from long pips can give the long pips player an advantage over the opponent who has not learned to read the spin. It is difficult to play offensively with long pips, so most players who use long pips only use it on one side. Anti-Topspin: Anti-Topspin rubber has a smooth surface but does not generate much spin and it is slow in speed. Anti rubber neutralizes the spin of the opponent. Most players who use anti block with it on one side and use a different rubber on the other. Choosing Rubber Speed and Spin: With so many rubber sheets to choose from, how do you choose? The Paddle Palace Rubber Ratings are a good place to start. Look at the speed and spin ratings of the rubber and match one to your playing style. Offensive players who use topspin, drive, loop, and smash usually prefer rubber with a high speed rating, while defensive players who primarily use underspin, chop, push, and block usually prefer slower rubber. Loopers and choppers prefer rubber with a high spin rating. Keep in mind that the faster or spinnier a rubber is, the harder it is to control. Rubber that is spinny also is more affected by the opponents’ spin. Sponge Thicknes: Sponge Thickness affects the speed of the rubber. Thicker sponge provides more speed and somewhat more spin. Thinner sponge provides more control. Thicker sponge adds weight to the paddle, and also gives a more cushioned feeling. Thinner sponge is lighter and gives a woodier feeling. Offensive players prefer 1.8 to 2.5mm. Allround players PADDLE PALACE CATALOG 294 prefer 1.5 to 2.0mm. Defensive players prefer OX (no sponge) to 1.6mm. Loopers prefer thicker sponge. Choppers prefer thinner sponge. Developing players or players who need more control should choose a sponge thickness that is on the thinner end of the range that fits their playing style. Rubber Ratings The rubbers are assigned ratings for Speed, Spin, & ControL on a scale of 10 to 99. The higher the rating, the higher that attribute. These ratings use a universal scale which differs from the manufacturers’ ratings so that the rubbers from all the brands can be compared. Ratings are intended only as a tool for helping to select rubber. Naturally, speed, spin, and control are all factors that are greatly affected by an individual player’s skill, strokes, playing style, and blade. In each issue of our Paddle Palace catalog, we include a comparison chart of all the rubbers so you can see them at a glance. If you go to PaddlePalace.com, you can click on “Chart View” for a comparison chart that is interactive. For example, you can choose to view by specific categories or brands, and you click on columns to numerically order the ratings for each attribute. We also have interactive comparison charts for blades, tables, and paddles. NEW RATINGS! The Paddle Palace Rubber Ratings have been updated as of November, 2011. Why? Rubber technology is growing. Many new rubbers are faster and spinnier than previous rubbers. As new rubbers were added to the charts, the ratings became out of proportion, especially at the high end. The new updated ratings show more precisely the differential between rubbers, so that smaller differences are more apparent. Overall, the new ratings show lower numbers across the board for most rubbers. However, the individual rubbers have not changed their characteristics—only the ratings have changed. Ratings must always be used as a comparison tool, not as a measure of intrinsic value. The new ratings are a more useful tool than ever. Paddle Palace is known for having the most useful and comprehensive comparison ratings in the industry. How are the rubber ratings calculated? Paddle Palace relies on our extensive experience and knowledge from years of playing with and testing rubber. We take into consideration the manufacturers’ ratings, pro player input, customer input, and our own objective and subjective tests. Our goal is to have the most balanced and accurate comparison ratings possible. SPECIALS good thru 3/31/2012 unless otherwise noted.

We add, for example, that with the shakehand grip you can keep your grip for the forehand and the backhand a bit open or a bit closed. But beyond these things, there is another aspect of the grip that is very important but does not get enough attention. This is the amount of pressure each player applies to his or her handle when holding the paddle. When a coach works with a student – even a very experienced one – the player’s grip pressure is something that should be considered in that player’s developmental process, as grip pressure changes a player’s strokes and technique completely. I believe many mistakes happen because of grip pressure. For example, if a player holds the paddle so tight that all the muscles in their forearm are tense, then the ball is going to be played very hard with a lack of control. When a player is said to have great touch, what does that mean? Great touch means that a player holds the paddle in such a way that the paddle is the same as their hand, or you can say the paddle is an extension of his/her hand. As the coach at ICC, with a lot of different students, it is important for me to understand what they are feeling when they hit the ball. I ask them, are you squeezing the paddle enough? Do you squeeze the paddle at all? Why is the ball not going where you want it to go? This question and answer process regarding grip pressure is starting to get some results. Players are gaining more understanding of what is going on with their grip pressure and how it affects their shots. The goal is to understand it well enough to make adjustments, when required, on their own. Please visit our Paddle Palace “News” page and comment on Mr. Costantini’s position on the importance of grip. Go to PaddlePalace.com and click on “News” at the top of the page. Then click on his article and add your thoughts to the comments section at the bottom of the posting. Massimo will respond to your questions. PADDLE PALACE CATALOG 294 PHOTO: PRADIPTA DUTTA We’d like to hear from YOU! PHOTO: LONG NGUYEN W Tapia Rodrigo (Ecuador), top, and Martin Cederlof (Sweden), left, were among the many international players attending ICC’s pre-tournament camp and competing in the JUIC International Junior & Cadet Championships. As accomplished international juniors, they demonstrated a good deal of “touch” by employing proper grip pressure. For example, if a player is having trouble keeping the ball short because they squeeze too hard, I tell them it’s not a matter of how to hit the ball, but it is a matter of how to hold your paddle. If you hold the paddle with too much pressure, the ball will automatically bounce too hard off the paddle surface. Similarly, when they drive or block or execute a loop, they should know what is going on with their grip pressure and the role it plays in producing a successful shot. Table tennis is a sport based on experience. And experience is personal – what a player feels when playing is his/her own experience. But there are ways a coach can help. Touching the player’s forearm gives the coach an idea of how much pressure the player is using to grip the paddle. If the forearm is tense, the arm muscles hard, the wrist stiff and the hand tight, then it will be very difficult for that player to have good touch. However, even when a player hits with too much pressure he/she can still develop a kind of feeling because, as I’ve said, this is a sport of experience and a player’s experience, despite bad habits, will help them adjust. However, developing the appropriate amount of grip pressure will result in a more effective game. [ Continued on page 74 ] SPECIALS good thru 3/31/2012 unless otherwise noted.

The measurement includes only the sponge (not the topsheet). Often the manufacturer indicates “MAX” for the thickest sponge available for a rubber. MAX thickness can vary from brand to brand, but it usually means the sponge thickness is approximately 2.3 to 2.5mm. Often MAX means the sponge and topsheet together measure 4.0mm, since this is the maximum thickness allowed under ITTF regulations. All rubber sheets at Paddle Palace are produced with ITTF legal sponge thickness.

JUIC International Junior Championships The JUIC International Junior & Cadet Championships were held at ICC’s Milpitas, CA Table Tennis Club, November 5-6. Over 112 juniors and cadets including 15 international players entered this unique event. Countries represented included Sweden, Ecuador, Mexico, Trinidad, China and Canada. Thanks to JUIC for their significant contributions that made this event possible and to the ITTF for their most welcome help in bringing so many talented juniors to the US to participate in the event. The tournament committee is already planning for 2012 and 2013 events, working towards the goal of making the JUIC International Junior & Cadet Championship event a must stop for US and international juniors as they travel on their way to becoming our future world table tennis champions. Coach’s Corner / Massimo Costantini Grip Pressure [ Continued from page 64 ] PADDLE PALACE CATALOG 294 PHOTO: LONG NGUYEN I encourage my students to relax their grip enough so they can feel the paddle and then squeeze when they hit the ball. The right grip is to keep the paddle relaxed, to keep firm, but not to squeeze enough to produce tension in the wrist or forearm. Start with a relaxed grip and squeeze just as you strike the ball, not before or after. Some players will learn more quickly than others the correct grip pressure and when to squeeze. But by becoming aware of grip pressure and its effect on hitting the ball, each player will be able to work on developing their own grip technique. Some players tell me their block is out of control, and I can see that their grip is too loose or too hard. I explain to them that when you hit a ball off of a wall it returns quite fast. When you hit a ball into a barrier all of its power is absorbed. The same thing happens with your grip. Depending on the grip pressure, the hand and paddle can absorb the ball’s force or generate power. Grip pressure also dictates a response to the spin you are receiving. Developing the player’s ability to adjust their grip is a blend of technique and experience. The more they understand how the grip affects a shot, the Maggie Tian [right], one of ICC’s talented coaches, works with Lily Zhang during a match at the JUIC International Junior & Cadet Championships. more they will feel and experience and the better they will be able to adjust. When I coach my students, I try to teach in three ways. The first way is to explain the lesson I’m teaching verbally and then to watch the results. The second is to show or demonstrate to the student what I want them to do. Sometimes this is not enough so the third way I teach is the kinesthetic way. I hold their arm and we play together. Students are all different and learn in different ways so I will use any and all of these methods and watch for positive results. SPECIALS good thru 3/31/2012 unless otherwise noted. PaddlePalace.com 800-547-5891 75 ABOUT PURCHASING YOUR TABLE Table Top Look for tables with thicker tops. Thicker tops give a more consistent bounce and are less likely to warp after years of use. The Paddle Palace recommends table tops of 3/4 inches or more. Net Set Some tables have net posts permanently attached to the frame. These make setup and takedown a little quicker but may not be as adjustable or sturdy as separate net posts. Table price includes net set. Frame Look for tables that have larger, sturdier legs and support frames. Sturdier frames contribute to a more consistent ball bounce and also help prevent top warpage. If you set up and store your table regularly, a larger frame increases durability. Shipping Charge: Wheels Price includes shipping! Some locations incur extra shipping charges. In that case, Paddle Palace will contact you before processing the order. Tables are shipped directly from the manufacturer by freight line. Delivery generally takes 2-3 weeks from the date of order. The delivery person will need assistance in unloading your table and will leave table at the curbside. Some tables require some assembly.

With Random Oscillation, the robot hits to the inner angles as well as the widest angles. With Random Oscillation, where the ball lands depends on the frequency and speed settings you have chosen. Programmable Oscillation is the most versatile. It achieves everything Controlled and Random Oscillation does, plus you can program sequences of your choice for where the ball lands! FREE SHIPPING >> Orders over $60 (see p. 96) Serve & Volley Sequences The Robot can be set to serve and volley in the same sequence. So, for example, you can set a sequence to begin with a serve, then shoot volleys to specific landing spots with spins of your choice for a realistic training pattern. Topspin/Underspin Sequences The robot can shoot topspin shots and underspin shots (and other spins) in consecutive shots in the same sequence. Throw Wheels – One, Two, or Four? Robots with one throw wheel can shoot topspin, underspin, and sidespin. With two throw wheels, the two independently controlled motors makes it possible for the spin setting to be independent from the speed setting. This results in a great range of spin options; from light to heavy topspin, light to heavy underspin, and light to heavy sidespin. And you can set it for no spin shots. Four throw wheels provides the greatest versatility of all, including serve and volley in the same training sequence.
