I’m Looking for help picking out a blade and some rubber advice. About 10 years ago I got really serious and decided to buy a blade and rubbers. I was advised to start with the butterfly xstar.I chose this as my blade and I have really enjoyed the pips out my whole life so I went with a raystorm one side flarestorm other.
I have enjoyed the flarestorm more than the raystorm. The reason being it felt like a stiffer/hard rubber. I felt like the ball sunk more into the ray storm rubber. I'm thinking about sticking with flarestorm but I am open to thoughts. I also prefer thinner rubbers. I don’t remember for sure but I think they were both1.9mm.
As for the blade, I’m hoping for a blade with high control. I liked the Butterfly Star and the control/consistancy it gave. I am looking for something similar to that but with more of a stiff feeling when hitting the ball and also hoping it would give me more vibration feedback.
I would really love any help.
