Uberpong: Table Tennis Just Got Cool

"The future of table tennis begins now" is Uberpong's tagline and looking at the graphic designs on their awesome ping pong paddles, they mean it! Table tennis (or ping-pong) has had a tough time of breaking into the mainstream. Despite being the second most played sport in the world, the image of players wearing headbands, an all white sports kit and using red and black paddles is not exactly one that gets the heart racing.
Uberpong aims to change all that by combining great art and design with ping-pong paddles. Graphic designers, illustrators and artists from around the world have contributed their work and this will be printed professionally onto the rubber. "The Uberpong ping pong paddle designs are an extension of your personality. We want you to play with style," says founder David Lowe.

Uberpong is a Kickstarter project by Origin of Cool and they need your help to hit their funding target. If they miss it, they get nothing! To get behind them, visit:

About World Sport Bloopers

World Sport Bloopers was created following the frustration of using video sites. Many offered videos that were filed under 'funny' or 'humor' but were not specific to sport. It required a lot of searching to find what we wanted. Even when you found the video, it was often edited poorly or inserted in a news segment so it had less impact.

World Sport Bloopers is inspired by UK shows like Fantasy Football (hosted by comedians David Baddiel and Frank Skinner), the eccentric Frenchman Remi Gaillard and US shows like Jackass. We aim to bring you the best bloopers, fails and WTF moments. We hope you enjoy the site!!
