I need a table tennis racket recommendation

Table tennis questions


I've been on the web for a couple of hours trying to find out what a good racket would be for several boys who are really into Ping Pong.

They are all graduating from high school this month and I want to buy 5 nice rackets for graduation gifts.

I read about the racket and the rubber and the glue, and frankly, I'm just not going to go to the trouble.

All these guys have fun playing ping pong in the back yard nearly every day, but I don't think they are on any kind of mission to do more than just play with each other.

I bought some $13 Stiga Attack paddles for them to use now, but my son said they won't last and I see the rubber is already peeling away. (It would be nice if they didn't leave them in the sun).

I thought some nice rackets would be a nice graduation gift, but I had no idea how involved a racquet purchase would be.

I would really appreciate a recommendation. I was hoping to spend around $30 a piece.

Thanks so much for your assistance.

Tracy
