What Makes An Outdoor Ping Pong Table Special?

Ping pong tables can be great if you wish to have a durable table for year round use

. An outdoor ping pong table can withstand weather changes and they allow you to leave them outside. This can be very convenient. You want to buy the right type of table to make sure that yours doesn't warp or get damaged from outdoor elements.

Generally, the best outdoor tables are aluminum tables. These will give extraordinary protection against warping and water damage. You can keep these tables, when they are waterproofed, in any type of environment. There is also a waterproof coating that can be placed on wooden ping pong tables that make them suitable for play outside in any weather too. The higher the cost of materials used in the construction of the table, the more you will have to pay when you buy one. Synthetic and metal tables are generally more expensive than wooden tables.

One of the most difficult parts about getting a table specifically designed for outdoor use is finding one that has a bounce that is as good as the bounce you would find on a standard indoor table. This will probably only be important if you take your ping pong seriously, but there can be a noticeable difference in the bounce between the different types of tables available.

No matter what kind of table you get, a good idea to help protect your table when outdoors is by using a cover. By putting a tarp or a cover over your table, you will protect it from the heat of the sun while also stopping rain from pooling up on the surface. This can be very helpful in keeping your table in its original condition.

If you choose a metal table for its durability, then you should expect the bounce to be slightly slower than indoor tables. The spin can also be somewhat less on these types of tables.

Another factor that you will want to take into consideration is the weatherproofing of the legs on the table. Some designs come with special weatherproofed exteriors for the legs. This can be great in keeping your ping pong table in great shape for many years to come.

Another option you have if you only want to use your table outdoors occasionally, is to buy an indoor table and move it outdoors when you want to play outside during good weather. Then you will have an indoor table while playing outside.
