Abstract	This study investigates the impact of carbon fiber rackets on key performance parameters in table tennis, including ball speed, spin rate, control, and rally duration. Twenty elite table tennis players participated in a cross-over design experiment using both carbon and wooden rackets. Performance data were recorded using a spin analyzer, speed radar, and video tracking. Results showed that carbon rackets significantly increased ball speed and spin rate but slightly reduced control and rally length. The study concludes that carbon rackets are more suitable for advanced players favoring aggressive playstyles.
