Product Summary
BLADE SUMMARY
It is truly amazing how well balanced this blade is. It can do everything... and everything quite well! Our testing team found real no weaknesses in any aspect of its game. Alpha Dog offers a lot of control and feeling, especially when players are blocking or looping near table. The speed is perfect for near-table offensive players. If you are a player wanting a well rounded game, Alpha Dog might be the perfect blade for you to step your game up!
It is almost impossible to beat the versatility of this All-Around (ALL) blade.
RUBBER SUMMARY
Spin Mystic is made for players that want tremendous spin without surrendering speed or control. Players that love to play with backhand and forehand pushes will find that there is no place on the table this rubber and sponge combo cannot direct their ball. Spin Mystic brilliantly uses your opponent’s spin against them when blocking. Because of its porous sponge and rubber composition, Spin Mystic excels at Looping while still providing exceptional ball placement. Players will see remarkable spin and accuracy, not only in their rallies, but also in their service game.
This rubber is for players that love spin and want loads of it!

very nice paddle for my son developing as a player. He likes the color and design and I like its consistency as he works on his footwork.

We also love the color and design of the paddle and are happy to hear that it’s consistent for his footwork practice. Thanks for choosing our product and happy playing!
I used the discount they had going to get my second Alpha Dog as a backup with a case and balls. Literally the best paddle in the world!
Thank you for your purchase and for taking the time to leave a review! We’re thrilled to hear that you love our Alpha Dog paddle bundle and that you now have a backup for your games. We agree, it truly is one of the best paddles in the world. Happy playing!
Thanks!
That is great to hear! Thank you for the review and please come on back soon!
Loved the 1st Alpha Dog paddle I bought, so bought a 2nd for backup. Needed a storage unit so bought the bundle. Did not want to try replacing the rubbers in the future.
That is fantastic to hear! Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate it!
I’ve been a recreational ping pong player for over 30 years. Up until now, I’ve always played with “house paddles”. You know the kind, slick rubber and no padding. The Alpha Dog is my first premium paddle, and I can’t overstate how much of an improvement it is. It took me a few days to adjust, but it really provides an amazing amount of control…. and the spin, my God, is bonkers. Anyways, it’s not all rainbows. My son doesn’t want to play me anymore because he thinks I’ve enabled “cheat codes”. It looks like I’ve got to pick up another paddle to keep my guy from quitting on me. If you’re on the fence, just get it. You won’t be sorry.
Hey Jeff! Thank you so much for sharing your story! We are so happy to hear that this paddle was an asset to your table tennis game! We hope your son equally loves his new paddle ;). Thanks again for your kind words and come on back soon!
