A large racket blade shifts the center of gravity far towards the head and is therefore particularly suitable for topspins. The smaller the blade size, the further the center of gravity moves towards the middle of the table tennis blade. Depending on which handle you combine with a large racket blade, you will get a table tennis blade that is balanced to grip-heavy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\">In our <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.soulspin.de\/en\/pages\/table-tennis-configurator\">table tennis racket configurator<\/a>, you can choose from the <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/soulspin.de\/en\/table-tennis-material-advice\/blade-sizes\/\">4 blade sizes<\/a> S, M, L and the extra large defensive blade and thus perfectly adapt the blade size to your wishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/soulspin.de\/en\/table-tennis-material-advice\/blade-sizes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MORE ABOUT THE BLADE SIZES<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" id=\"material\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">2. the choice of handle material<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\">Another decisive factor in controlling balance is the<strong> choice of grip material<\/strong>.
