Need advice (what blade and rubber)

SZELUHNY · Sep 23, 2014

Hi everyone.

What blade will be good for this:
BH: block or punchblock, push etc. I loop very, very rarely. I don't know what rubber to choose, so I need advice here too. I was thinking about Tibhar Vari Spin. Speed isn't very important here.
FH: Donic Baracuda.

I'm all-round player, with offensive forehand (loops almost everything), I play close to the table (or mid-table eventually).

I don't have high budget, so it can't be Tenergy or any other expensive rubbers. The same applies the blade. Thanks for any help

Try galaxy 896 blade with some andro rubbers(rasant powersponge best)

chinese rubbers like DHS hurricane series are cheap, so they will suit your budget, and they will be decent rubbers for your backhand. Your baracuda for your forehand should be ok

so many to choose from... i recommend a control rubber-a fellow members choice comes to mind
the xp 2008 super power by dawei-cheap and plays realy well-ask Der_Echte for more info on it.

As far as rubbers go, here is my process:

Megaspin does a good job of catagorizing rubbers (allround, high spin, high speed, etc). If you google "yinhe rubbers", "729 rubbers", "joola rubbers" or the like, the first link in the result will take you to megaspin's page. Select and look at user reviews of offensive/high speed rubbers and begin comparing to get a general idea (reviewers will have often times made comparisions for you). Also, tabletennisdb gives tackiness ratings as well if you are interested. Make an educated guess, buy one to try for yourself!

If you havent, as a starting rubber often touted for rpb (not to my liking because i find it better suited for flat hits vs looping, so maybe your type)? RITC 729 focus 3 snipe. I think it would help you establish a baseline.

SZ is in Poland, but maybe can get stuff from an EU vendor OK enough. ZTTZD, give her some suggestions on where to buy the stuff you recommend, unless SZ wants to wait for it to get to there from eacheng.net

What about Stiga HyperTech 45/35 CR? Its a blade that has an attacking forehand and a controllable backhand.

Good recommendation

I think the right backhand rubber will be Tibhar Evolution El-P. Never used that rubber to be onest but Ive used the MX-P version and it was not too sensitive to spin at all.

You have already chose your forehand rubber. I think baracuda is a bit soft for a forehand rubber but thats just my opinion.

I was playing with Baracuda already, and I very like it

And what do you think guys about Stiga Optimum Sync OFF and Donic Waldner Diablo Senso? I can buy these for price lower than normal.
