My father was always a real practical man. One of the things that he told me that always stayed in my mind is that you should always do the right job with the right equipment. In my own projects, I always strive to live by this maxim. I've applied it to everything in my job, as well as most of my hobbies. But I never applied it to table tennis equipment. You see, I have been a table tennis enthusiast for a good many years. It all started when I transferred to college. The dorm that I lived in had some ratty old table tennis equipment in the basement. The table tennis paddles were almost literally falling apart. The boards were uneven, the nets sagged, and the table wobbled every time the ball hit it. Nonetheless, we had a lot fantastic games. The dorm decided to buy new table tennis equipment just before I moved out. I got to take the old stuff with me, and soon I had it installed in my basement. I loved playing on that rickety old table, but it appeared like I could only get to a certain level. I never thought that the ping-pong equipment was responsible for that. I thought it was the way I was playing. You see, I have never been the best athlete. How was I able to guess that what was holding me back was the tennis table equipment? In fact, I realized that when I got to play at an area table tennis competition. My brother, who is really serious about the game, invited me along. The table tennis equipment there was top notch. People had table tennis paddles made with technology that I had never even heard of. The interesting thing was, when I played on their table tennis equipment, I understood why I had never learn some of the advanced techniques. Learning advanced ball control is impossible on a table that is slanted and warped. Eventhough I had a good game for my own set of table tennis equipment, when I was doing it on a regulation table, my game was off. I don't have to mention that I was eliminated early on. The first thing I did was buy new table tennis equipment. You can bet I will do better next time!
