As far as I know, those New Impulse blades are way stiffer than the typical 5 ply, and seem to be harder as well. Choose something like the Sweden Extra (ask for a lighter weight if possible) and try that.

If you wanna stay with the current blade and rubbers, you can just buy the rubbers. Your racket uses palio hadou 40+.

Not really, Im unsure if the qualities of BD will match well with my backhand stroke, hence the question, but I guess im gonna have to give it a go one way or another..

Yeah, I suppose so. So you think the grip is comparable? Because Ive recently put together a bat for a friend with palio ak47 rubber, and noticed that the grip on the surface is somewhat lacking, thus limiting spin capabilities.

Could you be more specific? How bouncy is it in comparison to tensors like R7? Has the switch been difficult? How's the grip?

Pretty much the topic. I'd like to know what your experience is with switching from tensors to something like the Big Dipper or Jupiter 3, since the costs of ESN rubbers are going higher and higher, so im starting to look for a well priced alternative. For context, im using the Rakza 7 on the BH...

How would it compare to ESN rubbers? Is it more chinese-like or closer to bouncy hybrids?

Maybe it just needed breaking in? Or it was the commercial version. The grabbing feeling you describe is quite typical for the provincial and national versions.

What do you mean by "suck oil"?

Fastest as in the most cataputy, or as in the highest top speed? And are you even reading my comment? It literally doesnt matter which one you choose. It doesnt make that much sense to compare them because they are in quite a smilar realm of performance.

Im typing off the top of my head, might be wrong in some places. 1.M2>C1>S2 2. C1>M2>S2 3. M2>S2>C1 4.C1>~M2>S2 5.M2=C1>S2 6.S2>C1>M2 7. Dont have any info on that That being said, I suppose you are a begginer, so honestly just flip a coin and decide because none of those rubbers are gonna give...

@yogi_bear Do you think this rubber could be used as an alternative to dignics 05?

Honestly I think its a great idea, but it would have been a lot more helpful to insert it into a video somehow, as the translations provided by them arent always accurate, and dont make sense half of the time.

There is a backhand version of the Battle 2 in 37 degree hardness, which as far as I know is great in red, but I havent played with it yet. I know this just from talking to someone who has.

I mean, if I were to pay the ammount innerforce ALC costs, (at least in my country), id rather pay about 50$ more and get a custom blade from OSP, or just their Virtuoso AC, which is probably meant to mimic the innerforce.

@Lazer If you are looking for hurricane 3 39 but faster, you could try 729 Battle II Provincial Orange. It is more or less the same (a bit harder topsheet, and a bit lower throw), but a lot easier to play with. I can go into more detail if you are interested.

I haven't played with the C1 too much, but basically it's a Fastarc G1fx (it's something along the lines of tenergy 05fx for tenergy 05). A bit softer, more forgiving etc. So if the G1 is an upgrade to R7 (a bit harder and more linear), the C1 is something in-between the two, although it seems...

How much stronger is your FH compared to the BH? If they are about equal, just go with the double rakza Z and call it a day. Youll get a lot of control, albeit a bit less speed, but given your goals I suppose its not a problem.

A bit late to the party, but I suppose OSP blades can tweak the design of their Virtuoso AC a bit to match that of the W968. They are quite similar afaik (if you take the large headsize), although its quite a pricy blade.

If you are looking at yasaka rubbers, maybe consider Rakza XX?
