Fastest vs. Slowest Racket

Today I have an interesting comparison for you. I'm testing one of the fastest and one of the slowest rackets on the market. I will compare the rotation, speed, bounce, contact length and trajectory. Maybe it will help you decide whether to choose a slower or faster racket. Have fun!

Which of the two rackets would you go with?

[@pingpongmat7996]

Definitely slower. Controll is my key to winning. I'm defensive player but with anti spin to block.

[@thomasschwierz971]

The slower one - more feeling, more dwell and more flexibility in my shots. I just don't like too fast, stiff blades

[@ketikreqspasipoepoet]

Give me racket😢

[@jakewills4713]

Fast, played with slow rubber before, too easy for opponents to defend. Stick rubbers, eg 09c and Hurricane3 can provide tons close table control.

[@shuminliu]

I would get another Timo Boll TriCarbon, even I already own one :)

[@lukedavies-stokes9701]

Timo is just a likable guy, he could be saying pretty much anything and I'd still listen

[@timoboll8381]

Good to know 😜

[@themadangle4856]

If the bat is in timo boll's hand then it is the fastest

[@timoboll8381]

Maybe if Ma Long takes the slow one and I the fastest, we have the same speed ☺️

Timo, the production quality is getting better and better. Thanks for bringing up these different thoughts, when choosing and comparing these different blades. My personal favourite at this moment is TB ALC, with a certain tacky rubber 😉.

[@VictorMoraga]

Great improvement in production quality in the video Timo. Congratulations. Keep doing !

Excellent video Timo, really appreciate the English content. I also watch your german speaking content just to learn from your gracious and virtuous skills. I use the Jan Ove Waldner ultra senso carbon and I love that blade and Jan Ove I think that blade is in the medium point of what you said about slowest and fastest racket :)

[@paullord3549]

Great video Timo. I recently changed from a very slow, tacky rubber to H3 National on my forehand which has made the world of difference to my game. Getting the correct rubbers and blade is so important and these comparison videos are so useful for both the beginners and also the more advanced players too.

[@uchihasasuke7436]

From slow tacky rubber to... H3 National which is a slow tacky rubber???

[@paullord3549]

@@uchihasasuke7436 I used to use Kokutaku 886, now that is a slow rubber. H3 National with 2 layers of glue and then boosted is a fantastic rubber, definitely not slow.

Pure perfection, so easy to understand even for someone who let's say doesn't know much about table tennis.

Hope it ll be more content like this for us beginners. 🙏💪

Thanks for explaining it. Really useful ! I did the opposite of course in the past. To resilient rubbers and too fast. Now I'll go back to start again in proper way !
