Have you ever played with pre-made table tennis / ping pong paddles that you get from Walmart? Or at least have you played against players who use the same? I hate playing against such pre-made paddles which just absorb all the energy you put in a stroke and throw you a knuckle ball.
Some of these blades are made of basswood. The basswood is yellowish white in color. The basswood has a very dead feeling. Because of this nature, it is rarely used in professional paddles. It’s behavior is similar to anti rubber which can slow down the speed of the ball a great lot.
