New version of plastic balls becoming available
A new generation of plastic balls made with ABS plastic seem to be a noticeable improvement over the initial plastic balls (poly). For a more official review check out:

Need to give it a few more weeks of play to be sure. If you’d like to try it out, post a comment below and I’ll bring one into the club.

Fact or Fiction: The Life & Times of a Ping Pong Hustler
