Set up for max Spin potential

[sebi]

After getting Spinsight
I was wondering just for fun what the ultimate set up for max Spin on top spins would be.
Is the blade even important? Is thin contact everything and it only depends on the rubber?
Sure technique is everything, but what if we have a perfect player and the goal is max spin?

Max spin on...what kind of shot? Humans aren't really able to saturate a new rubber, you'll not really run out of spin if the topsheet is still grippy enough, so I think you need to think about efficiency of the shot you're interested in.

Blade definitely matters. The exact blade you have, not the type of blade. I've used allwood blades with less spin than outer carbon ones and the opposite. I think generally the more flexible, softer blade will make absolutely maximum spin harder to make (very strong loops and such) but make it easier to make an acceptable amount of spin. I bought a DHS B2 a while ago that even expert players couldn't get any spin out of on medium impact because of how fast and inflexible it becomes. If you powered through it and flexed it enough, it would get massively spinny. So it doesn't need to be linear. I think that one is defective though; insanely fast blade.

probably the hugo hal or W968 composition blade paired with dignics 09c

The blade matters in that it allows the ball to stay just long enough in contact with the rubber. The grip is all up to the rubber…

flexy blade ( five ply like BTY Primorac ) and two sheets of Donic Baracuda, the rubber with vicious spin.

Probably something like this :

I reckon, Zhang Jike’s legs...

So for kind of ball lets say top spin against block.
Not sure about the blade.
I noticed everytime you hit trough the sponge and hear wood spin is less, doens't matter how hard you hit.

And when you listen to pros play in warm up and when they stand good to the ball they don't hit trough the sponge they contact thin and hard only rubber and sponge.
