Ping Pong Paddles With Wood Handle

Players have used ping pong paddles with wood handles since the beginning of the sport. That said, the modern wood-handled ping pong paddle has come a long way. These days, many professional ping pong players still prefer the weight and feel of the classic wood handle. Often times lighter or more shock-absorbent materials are embedded in the handle for a springier shot. Traditionalists also continue to opt for wood-handled paddles. If you like the old look and feel, then you need not worry about sacrificing performance for style. A number of the top brands continue to offer models with wood handles from Prince to Kettler to Olympia Sports table tennis paddles.
