If you don't get coaching just get any rubber you like. It really doesn't make a huge difference. We sometimes over think these things.

Keep the rubbers, find a good coach to show you the principles of hitting the ball and spend the money for the new rubber on the coach. It goes much further.

Decided to get out of the sport (coaching and playing for at least a month and then reassess). Work is getting busier and health is not as good so I need to find a new balance.

Read raineverever's posts. You still seem to miss the point.

You discussed the forehand flick but do you agree he needs more serve variations?

I agree that Boll and Dima would be better but he isn't on the German national team. His current Bundesliga team has Gauzy. Dyjas and Muromatsu. He is already competing against Boll, Karlsson, Fegerl, Filus etc. On a regular basis. I think the whole collaboration idea sounds great on paper but...
