Switch engine ping-pong is a quadratic growth pattern that was found by Michael Simkin on October 29, 2014.[1] In terms of its 23 cells it is the smallest currently known quadratic growth pattern, superseding the previous record holder, 24-cell quadratic growth, also found by Simkin a week earlier.

It is the first such pattern found that uses only 2 switch engines.
