Featured Article:
Outdoor table tennis tables, or ping pong tables, come in a variety of configurations and constructions. The table surface is normally made from either metal (usually aluminium), wood with a thick protective outer layer, or some sort of laminate construction. Legs are usually made of coated metal (aluminium or steel) or well-treated and protected wood. Since these tables are designed to be left outside, they need to be water proof and be protected against types of exposure, like UV radiation from the sun.
These types of tables are normally only used for recreational use, the performance of these tables is usually secondary, as long as the table does produce a decent bounce of the ball. Because of all these extra design features inbuilt to protect the table from the elements, these tables are usually a lot more expensive than a similar indoor models... but of course they offer the advantage that these tables can also be both indoors AND outdoors...and they are made to last!
Table-Tops:
Aluminium topped tables are generally accepted as the best, as the aluminium does not rust and is hard and durable and unaffected by UV. Since the table-tops need a thicker layer to produce a good bounce, they usually consist of a wooden inner layer (often MDF), with outer aluminium layers to protect it. Some of the laminate table-tops can be very good too, and are becoming more and more common.
As with indoor table tennis tables, the thickness of the top is still a very important consideration. Not only does it produce a better bounce of the ball due to it's more solid construction, but it also reduces the chances of warping of the table. Warping obviously affects the performance of the table, but it can also produces crack in the outer protective layer, exposing the inner layers to more moisture, and the effect will grow a lot worse much faster. Of course if the inner layer is not made of wood, this won't be an issue.
Frames:
Alumimium frames are usually the best option, as they tend to be much lighter than steel or solid wood, with little downside in strength. If you're going to be moving the table around a lot, make sure it has a good undercarriage with solid and weather-proof wheels as well. Having the option of being able to fold up half the table to practice against is offered by some brands as well, although in reality this configuration is hardly used, and very restrictive in the practice it offers.
Performance:
Performance is usually measured by how good a bounce the ball produces. Since you're already outside and the slightest bit of wind can easily move the ball, this requirement is usually secondary, but generally the more solid and thicker the top of the table, the better the performance. Another issue to consider is the surface finish...some table have a real shine on the surface, and since there is a lot more light outside than inside, a matt finish to reduce the glare is highly desirable.
Maintenance:
These tables require virtually no maintenance as they are solid and tough. It is always a good idea to put some sort of cover over the table when it's not being used, to give it that extra little protection, and to keep it clean, but it's not essential. A bit of a clean with a soft and wet cloth is usually a good idea before you start play, and any tiny bits of dirt on the surface severely affect the bounce of a table tennis ball.
Accessories:
Usually the tables come with a net as well, although in some cases this net is not weather-proof, so it needs to be taken down after you finish using it. Some table come with balls and bats, and these are obviously easy to take inside when you're finished playing, so the weather-proofing are not such a big an issue.
Other uses:
Since the table is designed to be solid and tough, there is no reason it cannot be used as a normal table as well. It's highly recommended to at least cover the table with table-cloth to protect the paint from spillages and such.
Where to buy?
Tables are generally bought via your local club or dealer, or via an online shop, who will generally ship it directly to your door. If you are considering purchasing the table from anywhere, make sure you get a quote for the complete package including shipping, as these can be high additional costs. It is also worthwhile to see if they can include a net (if not included already), as you can usually get this at a better price when you both both at once.

Gross Weight? Tare Weight? Wait! Which Weight?
Gross Weight
A basic tenet of shipping is that freight is rated on its gross weight. Gross weight is simply the weight of the product and its packaging. For example, the glass vase, packing peanuts, carton, sealing tape and label combine to make the gross weight.
Even when you attach your freight to skids or pallets for ease of handling, pallet weight (which can be considerable as anyone who has tossed them around a dock will testify) must be included in the gross weight.
Net Weight
The weight of the product itself without packaging. (The vase by itself.) Net weight is rarely a factor in shipping unless a carton is overpacked and splits open. (Check the seal on the bottom of a standard shipping carton for the maximum weight the carton will hold safely.)
Tare Weight
Tare weight is the weight of an empty vehicle or container. Normally not something that a shipper is concerned with but it's a term everyone should know.
Volumetric Weight - Air freight
International airfreight shipments are usually rated per pound or per kilogram. However, what the airlines are really selling is space aboard the aircraft. Therefore, they have a volumetric equivalent for shippers of lightweight articles. Consider how much space 100 kgs of ping pong balls would consume vs. 100 kgs of anvils. International air shipments are figured on both the actual gross weight and volumetric weight and rated at the higher of the two. To determine volumetric weight for air:
Multiply length x width x height in inches and divide by 366. The result is the volumetric in kilograms.
Example: 20" x 20" x40" = 16,000 cu. inches
Divided by 366 = 43.7 (round up to 44 kilograms)
If the gross weight of the shipment is 35 kilograms, it would be rated on the volumetric 44 kilograms. If the actual gross weight is 50 kilograms, it would be rated at 50 kgs.
Weight/Measure ' Sea Freight
Many sea freight shipments are rated on a Full Containerload (FCL) basis. However, Less-than-Containerload (LCL) and the occasional FCL shipment are rated on a metric "Weight/Measure" in most trades. This formula is based on 1 cubic meter (35.3147 cubic feet) versus 1,000 kilograms (2,204.6 pounds), whichever yields the greater revenue to the carrier. Let me save you some time. Unless your shipment is extremely dense, it's going to go on Measure. I've shipped tractor parts that went on Measure. Weight basis shipments are rare.
Trucking Density Rates
Motor carriers also sell space on their trailer, even though the rates are on a weight basis. Domestic LTL (less-than-truckload) rates are usually charged per one hundred pounds ("cwt"). However, think of those ping pong balls again. Many trucking rates factor in density. Plastic items and commodities of a similar nature have tiered rates that are based upon the density of the product. The tariff may read something along the lines of:
Plastic Items NOIBN (not otherwise indexed by number) Density under 10 pounds per cubic foot
Rate $10.00/ cwt.
Plastic Items NOIBN Density 10 to 20 pounds per cubic foot, Rate $8.50/ cwt
The difference between motor carrier density rates versus air or sea volumetric rates is that the motor carrier density rates apply only to select commodities. They're universal in air and sea shipments.
GROSS MEASUREMENT
For air and sea freight, the LxWxH measurements are stretched to the farthest point. For example, an automobile length would stretch bumper tip to bumper tip. Therefore it's advisable, whenever possible, to "square off" the package. Say you're shipping a stove with a chimney attachment. Remove the chimney before shipping and lay it flat alongside or inside the stove. If you are shipping an automobile, remove the radio antenna.

Any tips for ping-pong? Need unique playing styles. Thanks.?
Our church has a few ping-pong tables. I have an old Wilson graphite ping-pong paddle. 3 other guys there have custom made paddles that were shipped from China. I used to own those guys but now they're kicking my butt. Can anyone give tips on how to create a baffling spin on the ball? Service techniques would be nice as well. Please give me your source if you have one. Thanks.
Watch the movie, "Balls of Fury."
