How to choose your ping-pong racket?

Which racket for which use?

Choosing a ping pong racket is crucial for every table tennis player. It is important to choose a racket that best suits your use and playing style.

Indoor or outdoor? Your choice will first be guided by this criterion. Whether you play for leisure and want to be able to play anywhere and in any weather, or you are an advanced player looking for a racket for intensive or competitive use mainly indoors, Cornilleau has developed rackets to suit all your needs.

As you can see, finding the racket that best meets your expectations and matches your use is essential.

Outdoor ping pong rackets: built to last

Resistant to impacts and weather conditions (shocks, UV, water), outdoor rackets are perfectly designed for playing outside. However, they are also recommended for indoor use in many cases. Outdoor ping pong rackets surprise with their quality and durability. In terms of speed, precision, and spin, they have nothing to envy compared to indoor rackets. Their heavy-duty durability also allows you to store them outdoors all year round.

A racket, yes, but not just any racket! As the first eco-designed outdoor racket on the market, this innovative and sustainable product is the result of a 100% "made in France" manufacturing process and the recycling of Armor-Lux textile fibers. The Softbat’s design offers great resistance to shocks and humidity. Its dynamic polymer covering ensures good playing speed, and its round handle with a specific hand-placement zone will suit players of all ages.

Wooden ping pong rackets for indoor play

Wooden rackets are the traditional rackets used for ping pong. Cornilleau indoor rackets are all equipped with an ITTF (International Table Tennis Federation) approved rubber; they are clearly suitable for both occasional and more experienced players.

The Covering:

1- The Rubber

The quality of Cornilleau rubbers is rated by stars, from a moderately grippy and elastic covering to a highly grippy and elastic one. All our wooden (indoor) rackets feature ITTF approved rubbers.

2- The Sponge

The thicker the sponge, the faster your racket will be. It should therefore be adapted to your level of play.

The Wood:

3- The Blade

The blade is the central element of your racket; the thicker the wood of the blade, the faster your racket will be.

4- The Handle

There are three main types of handles: straight, anatomic, and flared (concave). Cornilleau rackets feature a flared handle which offers an optimal grip.
