SolidSlime Adapters now work with STIGA CWT Weights

We’re excited to announce a new variation in the SolidSlime VR table tennis adapter lineup—one designed specifically for players who want even more control over their setup.

This new version features an embedded magnet in the handle, allowing you to use official STIGA Custom Weight Technology (CWT) weights for a more personalized and realistic feel.

Note: The new CWT-Compatible variation is available as an optional variation in our store for the Quest 3/3S Adapter and Pico 4 Ultra Adapter. Our regular adapters without magnetic support are still available and fully supported.

Why a Magnetic Insert?

For many competitive players, replicating the real-world feel of a paddle is essential. While our standard adapters already deliver a top-tier immersive experience, some users requested the ability to adjust the balance and weight using their own STIGA CWT weights.

This magnetic variation makes that possible.

Key Features of the Magnetic Version

  • Embedded magnet : Securely holds official STIGA CWT weights in place.
  • Customizable balance and feel: Adjust paddle weight to match your playing style.
  • Tool-free install: Snap your weights in or out—no extra parts or hardware needed.
  • Same SolidSlime performance: Built to our exacting design and playability standards.

Which Variation Is Right for You?

  • Standard SolidSlime Adapter
    Great for players who want a consistent, ready-to-play paddle feel out of the box.
  • Magnetic CWT-Compatible Adapter (New)
    Ideal for advanced players who already use STIGA CWT weights or want to experiment with fine-tuned paddle balance.

Available Now

The new CWT-Compatible variation is available as an optional variation in our store for the Quest 3/3S Adapter and Pico 4 Ultra Adapter.

Pico 4 Ultra Table Tennis Adapter is Now Available

I’m glad to announce that the the SolidSlime Pico 4 Ultra Table Tennis Adapter is now available!

It utilizes the perfected “bottle cap” design element that’s also used in the Quest 3 adapter v3, to make installing and uninstalling the controller require trivial effort.

Advantages of This Adapter:

  • 🏓Very good tracking quality for both forehand and backhand, especially tuned for Pico 4 Ultra controller and verified by top players.
    • All LED on the controller are visible by the camera during conventional shakehand TT strokes.
  • ✅Shakehand (for penhold, please check other products)
  • 👍Realistically weighted. (205g~235g depending on AAA or AA battery. Can also be customized per request)
  • ⚖️Comfortable balance.
  • 💪Controller does not wobble during swing.
  • 🔢 Various handle shapes(Flared, Straight, Anatomic). (What are these and why should I care?)
  • 🧷The design allows stock wrist straps to be used for minimizing safety risk.
  • ⏩10 second assembly by hand. No screws! 
  • 🪵Wood grain patterns on the handle to ensure slip-free grip.
  • 👍🏻Optional rubber and cutout templates can be provided, to improve the touch feeling.

About Pico 4 Ultra VR headset:

Pico 4 Ultra VR headset is the latest product in the Pico family.
Similar to Quest 3, it uses Qualcomm snapdragon XR2 Gen2 chipset and pancake lenses.
It has 12GB of RAM versus 8GB for the Quest 3; two 2,160 x 2,160 pixels per eye LCD screens versus 2,064 x 2,208 pixels per eye for the Quest 3 (though the Meta’s Quest 3’s screens can hit a refresh rate up to 120Hz rather than 90Hz).
Pico 4 Ultra also has better passthrough cameras than Quest 3.
Full datasheet comparison can be seen here.

The Pico 4 Ultra controller is quite heavy. Including the adapter, the whole racket can be from 205g to 235g, depending on the batteries being used. For most users, I highly recommend getting the AAA->AA battery adapters.

In terms of playing table tennis, a big advantage of Pico 4 Ultra is its controller tracking quality. The Pico 4 Ultra controller has 12 LEDs on itself. Unlike Quest 3 which places all but one of the LEDs on a flat surface, which means the trackable angle is extremely limited, the LEDs on Pico4 Ultra controller are placed around it. This means even when the racket is flipped 180 degrees, the controller still can be tracked well enough to do fast drives and loops. This was impossible to do with Quest 3 controller and adapter.

From my personal experience with Eleven Table Tennis on both Pico4 Ultra and Quest 3, backhand loops on Pico 4 Ultra feels faster/more reactive than that of Quest 3. Forehand loops are quite similar.

All in all, it’s a solid VR headset for people who are looking for alternatives to Quest 3.
