The trick about custom rubbers & blades isn't about quality, for rubbers is about top sheet type & sponge hardness, for blade is about weight and flex, each pro give the best combo for his game.
If you can't flick pros return centered short push to avoid receive a flick, if can't do they made a strong and long push-chop at the corner where isn't the other player to avoid fast loop attack.
Classical defense chopping far from the table and chop & chop-block close to the table aren't full compatible requiring different blades & long pips rubbers....
