Yeni toplar defans oyuncuları için daha avantajlı değil aksine daha az spinli olduğu için dezavantajlı. Bunun en büyük kanıtıda Jo Se Hyuk'un ifadeleri.
*What impact did ITTF decisions (like the 38mm ball) have on top level table tennis, and what influence do you think the new PVC balls will have (in particular for defenders and defensive style)?
The decision can benefit some players while hindering others. The players are somewhat weary because they have to make adjustments (in response to the frequent changes in the rules). Also, the PVC ball doesn't spin very well. Again, it's likely that the new ball will be a hinderance for long pip users.
