Tristar or nattaku, these are the cheapest option .

it doesnt matter what brand la. Ping Pong tables are all similar anyway

40+ ball is definately slower and influence by spin greatly compare to 38mm, 40mm. For LP the spin are always reactive, you are already at the mercy of opponent spin controlled. its a new game since 38/40mm days.

do you know where to get cheap 40+ training ball ? I saw some cheap ones on shopee but dare not buy from them, scare fake balls. I have seen some fake table tennis ball, so bad that it cant even bounce.

go to forum 19 today from 5pm-9pm. There is 1 very good player there who is an agent for TT accessories. No fake ones.

oh good, can help check for me 100 pcs training ball how much ? thanks

But I believe SP is coming back because the ball has changed into abs and 40+, research says that even though 40+ affects velocity by 10% but spin affected by 20 to 30%. Chinese player also reported that the ball is becoming smoother and slippery after playing some time.

My experience with 40+ balls was only about 14hrs+ of play. using 1 star for training and 3 stars for matches. the bounce of 1 star is definately horrible. many occasions i thot it hit some dust on table. and my old T05 practically cant drive if too dusty... i had another bat with a new sheet of nittaku G1 slight tacky harder top sheet, the spin is back on with an unfamiliar arc. It definately slow down the game a lot for control sake.

you can try presports.com if you dont want to travel. their price is reasonable, occasionally got promo. I usually visit tht site for price reference. and search in lazada.
I dont know whats your budget like but generally 3 stars seamless 40+ prices are pretty much the same.

oh thanks I will check the presports.

What type of ball people normally use for training ? last time when I was active playing was the 38mm ball. Maybe I should get the 40+ to practice. The 3 star is a bit expensive for 100pcs, so I am thinking of 1 star balls. Not sure which brand is good. I dont want to end up buying 100pcs of balls that is out of shape/weight and cant bounce properly to ruin my training. I want to make comeback, next year I can even play in the veteran category haha..

there are many retirees in Forum 19 who can still whip many younger players.

Training wise generally use 1 star or 2 stars, any reputable brands will do. No one really cares about the ball quality of training balls unless u are pro.

scare if behaviour is too far from the regular 3 star ball, may have very bad effect on training.

wah dont scare me.

Is forum 19 at pj? I happened to pass by today and intomhought it's a food court. Anyone here planning to play at Forum 19 tomorrow? evening? It has been a year or 2 I didn't play tt. Wish to start back.

Thank you.
