Casual players of ping pong don't really care about how the ball is made or the characteristics of it. They just want it to bounce and be able to be hit back and forth across the net. Pro players on the other hand take their table tennis balls very seriously and prefer certain balls because they play well with their individual styles.
International rules dictate that the game of regulation table tennis be played with a ball that is 2.7 grams and 40mm in diameter. This is typically the most used ball and must bounce to a 23cm height when dropped from a height of 30cm with a coefficient of restitution of 0.088. As you can see, pro players and the body that regulates them takes the game of table tennis to a new lever of serious. It's an olympic sport and they don't leave nothing for chance.
