Who would think that there would be so many choices when it comes to table tennis supplies? I would figure that you would go grab a paddle, a few balls, and you were set. I have found out that there are many different types of paddles alone! They are the main part of the players offence, and their best defense. Some of them add a topspin, while other paddles can actually make the ball travel much faster. I am really impressed. Seems you can learn something new every day. I am glad I figured this out, because I was about to go buy some supplies.
