Are non-ITTF actual long pips allowed in unsanctioned tournaments?
Maybe or maybe not
Check with tournament director before registering
You pay money to register and then drive 100s of miles only to find out your long pips are not allowed
Your entry fees may not be refunded either
In all fairness most unsanctioned tournaments do say the use USATT or ITTF rules and regulations for racket control
But some tournament directors may allow you to use actual non-ITTF-long pips
