👩 Why many women play better with ERGOPONG

The ergonomic handle geometry ensures flat hand contact and reduces localized pressure on the thumb and wrist. This leads to less fatigue, more ease, and better placement.

🔬 How the ERGO handle works biomechanically

The natural curve of the handle automatically guides the hand into a stable position. This results in fluid motion, better energy transfer, and less strain – especially in blocking and placement.

🎓 Is the handle “too different” for my technique?

We hear this question often – especially from defensive players. Our answer:
It’s not too different – it’s better by design.

The handle encourages a clean, natural grip, prevents common misalignments, and supports technical training perfectly. Even experienced players adjust quickly – and benefit long term from less grip shifting, better control, and a calmer game.
