Equipment recomendations

[pierre]

I am intermediate penhold player using an simple all round 5 ply dhs blade, loki rxton 5 on forehand and reactor tornado v5 on backhand. Its a very basic racket i think so i bought an 729 blue alc, dhs h8 80 for the forehand and a palio ak47 blue for the backhand. I like to play ofensive with alot of spin but prefere european stile rubbers on backhand for rpb. Is it a good setup? I will see some improvement in spin and speed? What you guys think and tell about your equipment too

And i boght the 37 degree version of h8 80, i think the 38 would be better but what ever

Yo
I've never used any of those dude, sorry, can't advise you what to expect.
Changing everything at the same time is a lot and will certainly take a bit of time to get used to so give it a while, enjoy your TT and see what differences you notice.
Equipment is different for everyone so the only way to find out for sure is to do it!

If you decide that either rubber is too hard, soft, slow, fast, poor for blocking, lacking for service or anything else etc etc then you can ask folks here advise on where to go next but for now just give the new racket a chance.

You'll also be able to change between it and your own racket, comparing directly which will help you decide for sure what you like and what you miss.

Thanks for the advices, i will try the new raquet and come back to say my opinion.

You will never feel the enough until you hold a butterfly. Only then you are reborn as a true TT player....

Ye i think, but butterfly is so fkn expensive, but i will travel to japan and probably will buy a blade and i think equipment isnt thaaaaat much important, i think equipment is just about 20% or less of the game the rest is practice

Stiga DNA platinum is a very good bh choice for the price.
