This does make perfect sense but someone like was it Maharu Yoshimura, I think his name is. Has a very strong serve and drives other pros crazy but seems to be "average" in other aspects in terms of the world level.
I'm not an RPB player but any 5ply allwood blade in the OFF- or ALL+ speed range should work.
If you were planning to use a chinese tacky rubber on the forehand you can use a hurricane 3 instead on your forehand then rozena on your backhand.
Got a used Stiga Banda Carbon SF from a well known coach in my area for under $80. Really good blade, according to my other friend who tried it and had a W968 before said it's very close to the W968.
In my experience, nothing. Just do it the right way. You put the lighter fluid on a piece of cloth then rub the glue on the sponge.... If ever you'll pour lighter fluid on the sponge/glue try to put as little as possible.
I use lighter fluid to remove glue when I have trouble with it, the lighter fluid sort of melts the glue layer and residue and makes it a lot easier to remove.
