The most common strategy in air hockey is to establish a repetitive pattern and wait for the opponent to pull him or herself out of position. A direct shot to the goal is usually successful. Other playing strategies include angling the puck to hit the corners of the goal or changing the pace to misdirect the opponent.
A basic defense is to keep the mallet 6 to 8 inches (about 15-20 cm) in front of the goal to block straight shots, then pull the mallet back to each corner to defend angled shots.

A little bit of difficulty setting it up (the directions aren’t 100% clear) but once we figured it out we played for hours and have used it every day since.

Carrom 7′ Signature Air Hockey Table

We enjoy the table

Pros: Durable Construction, Easy To Operate, Provides Hours Of Fun
Cons: Minor shipping damage
Best Uses: Home
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friendWe wanted a gift that adults could play with our  four-year old and two-year old triplets. This really fits that    criteria…Overall, ok with product. There was minor damage to two of four legs when unpacked. Didn’t have any structural impact, and you can’t see it under the table. I do think very minor changes in packaging would solve this. Taping the box (in addition to the straps) would probably hold the hold package together better. Freight companies can be a little rough on large items like this.Also, the optional scorekeeping tells you to remove the six screws on the puck return on each end, after you just finished adding four to each end in the assembly instructions. You might modify the table instructions to say “install optional scorekeeper at this point” to avoid that.Speed of puck doesn’t seem as fast as the (old…) hockey table at the local Pizza restaurant. But with the young kids, we kind of like that.

Setup was a breeze, but the pucks and paddles were missing from the box. A single phone call to customer service had a replacement sent 2 day air. We got everything in time for Christmas and are extremely satisfied.
