Expert Table Tennis Palio Master 3.0 Racket & Case - ITTF Approved (Wood , Multicolor)

Just been little more than a week since I started using this bat. I can see a very noticeable difference between this and my earlier Bat, GKI Dragon. Actually GKI Dragon is an excellent all rounder for beginners and I had become very comfortable having played with it for couple of years. First thing is that the bat speed is way faster. In order words, I needed to use my hand power to generate speed with GKI, but with Expert Palio Master, even a gentle push generates ample speed. So now I need to readjust my style and power for smashes. Next on the spin, since I am just an intermediate player and prefer attacking style, I need to explore more on the spin part as yet. I say this because I cannot notice much difference compared to GKI Dragon. Again it may imply that I need to change/readjust a little to this bat to explore the spin part. Lastly on the control, GKI Dragon is an allrounder and provides very good control. I have observed that Expert Palio Master is a notch higher when it comes to control. I am saying this because I am primarily a forehand player, and hence my backend control is not that good. But I suddenly observed that I am able to control my backhand shots more better compared to GKI Dragon

Light weight spin is normal , comes under fast category

The rubber is sufficiently tackey but it absorbs dust quickly. I recommend to wipe with water and soft foam after each play session and let the rubber dry normally. I upgraded this over GKI Dragon and it improves my game significantly. I can now play shots with more spin and power, especially the forehand loop. However, this racket is not suitable for defensive players who likes to chop all the time.😜

One week and the rubber is already peeling off

If you are a beginner who is picking up fast on the game, or an intermediate player who wants to try a racket that if neither too heavy not too light, nor too expensive (though price could be a bit lower still), this is a good one. Good spin and sufficient weight to power shots. Has decent level of control too. The bat came with transparent peel-off protector sheet on rubber and had good tackiness.

Required more spin, speed is ok, Weight is also beat more. Quality of wood is good

It's an overall great racket for beginners-intermediate level players. The package arrived in broken condition, but the inner contents were intact.

Plays like a very basic bat. I think a butterfly one would be better at this price range. Definitely not for you if you play at above beginner level

Great bats at a great price

great bat. Powerful and great control

This is a fantastic racket, for intermediate and even new players if you start with. You need just to give it a week of playing and when your hand got use to it, you rock it. If you are coming from other rackets, specially 5 ⭐️, you may find it a little bit heavier. Control: 80/100 Speed: 85/100 Topspin: 90/100 🤩

I was playing table tennis occasionally in the past with whatever racket I would find. For the last month, I started to learn the techniques and bought this racket. So far I am really satisfied. It's not a fast racket but it has great control. I can clearly see the difference, how good my spins became too. I was failing badly with fast rackets so I guess this one is good for beginner-intermediate players.

The racket is really good for intermediate players. This has elevated my game a lot. I specially like the control i get due to this racket. Overall a good buy after trying couple of others
