DESIGN YOUR OWN RACKET HANDLE

On the one hand, it’s all about the look of your individual table tennis blade – you can design the handle according to your own wishes. Even two different handle colours on forehand and backhand are no problem. We build your table tennis blade exactly the way you want it.

A second important point is the weight or balance of the finished table tennis blade.

Each material has its own weight – if you really want to control your blade down to the last detail, you should consider this when choosing the handle colour. Here we explain in detail how you can control the balance of your table tennis blade .

WOOD IS A NATURAL PRODUCT

No two trees are the same – each has its own structure.
That’s why it’s always a little surprise to see which grain comes out after polishing. We cut the raw wood in such a way that the most beautiful part of the grain becomes visible. Thus each handle becomes a small unique specimen.

weight

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DIFFERENT COLOURS AND SHAPES HAVE DIFFERENT EFFECTS ON THE WEIGHT OF THE BLADE.

The weight is displayed live in the configurator. IMPORTANT: These are approximate values. Depending on the grain and structure of the wood, the weight can vary slightly – we can therefore give you no guarantee that we will achieve exactly this weight at the end. However, we do our best to get as close as possible to you.

Basalt – A special composite fibre

Materials & production

Using Basalt-Fibre in table tennis blades

table tennis blades with basalt fibre 

a hitec mesh made from stone

We are constantly on the lookout for new materials and technologies, and we came across an exciting synthetic fibre made of Basalt. This fibre actually consists of melted Basalt stone and convinced us immediately after the first tests.

BASALT FIBre MAKES TABLE TENNIS BLADES EXTREMELY FLEXIBLE

Table tennis blades with Basalt fibre are particularly suitable for players who are looking for a fast but not too stiff blade.
The special feature of Basalt blades is their enormous flexibility.
Compared to a Carbon blade they are similarly fast, but much less stiff. The table tennis blade remains very flexible due to the embedded Basalt fibres, so that you have a soft touch similar to a solid wood. In addition, the Basalt fibre ensures that the blade hardly vibrates and you get a very clear feedback.

When it comes to speed, table tennis blades with Basalt fabric are a little slower than Carbon blades. For those who don’t need an extremely high tempo, but prefer good control and a soft feel, a Basalt blade is the right choice. It also has a high spin potential, a high ball bounce and a beautiful flight curve.

BASALT – the raw material

Basalt is a black, alkaline lava rock and is abundant all over the world. It is formed everywhere where magma exits from the ground and cools to basalt lava, e.g. in regions like the volcanic Eifel. Since we live here in direct neighbourhood to the volcanic Eifel, we are of course all the more pleased that we found such a great material directly in front of our front door ?

Infinitely long and fine fibres can be extracted from the molten rock, which are then processed into a basalt fabric. This technology has only recently become available and is not yet widespread.

BASALT and the enviroment

Basalt fibre is a pure natural product, made of melted Basalt stone without further additives. The fabric is 100% recyclable.
