Aspect Ratio is not a measured value
It is a calculated value
Aspect Ratio is a simple ratio of pip length divided by pip diameter
So you have to measure the pip length and pip diameter first and then calculate the aspect ratio

I do not want to accuse someone of trolling.
But this seems like some sort sick cruel joke
Because all an opponent is allowed to do is only visually examine the raket
For ITTF LARC approval and how th epips look without touching them
