What Makes A Professional Foosball Table

Quality overall construction arguably makes the top of the list. This includes the materials used in construction, components involved, and assembly skills. A professional table should be made of hardwood followed by metal rods with steel bearings, and leg levelers.

The ball control is absolutely essential to yielding the best foosball experience. Therefore the rods have to be just the right weight and the handles should be comfortable in the hands.

As for the players, you will see that all the tables we are going to review here have one thing in common: counter-balanced players. This means that the players on one side are heavier than those on the other. That is because counter-balanced players make it easier to perform certain types of trick shots possible, like the snake shot.

Tornado T-3000
