What table tennis rubbers & blade do you use?

How is EL Pro 50 Hard compared to EL Pro 48?

It´s a bit harder, faster and strokes played in half distance have more power. The arc is a bit lower and you need a faster movement of your arm and wrist to get the full power of the rubber. But all in all it is the power update, that I needed for my strokes over the table an my first ball attacking.

Hmmmm, your discription seem very much like XT 48 plays compared to EL 48, so for now not sure at all that I will migrate to EL 50 from XT 48... XT 48 is a bit cheper than EL 50/53, that is another factor (not major, but still...)...

(when I started out as a Shakehand)

Stiga Offensive Wood NCT Legend Flared
DHS Hurricane 3 NEO 2.15mm FH
Butterfly Rozena 2.1mm BH



(Switch to Penhold <3)

Yasaka Sweden Extra C.Pen
DHS Hurricane 3 NEO 2.15mm FH
Yasaka Mark V 1.8mm (later switched to 2.0mm) RPB

Gave the YEO a try, not form me so I'm going back to the Stiga Offensive Wood NCT but in C.Pen this time and going to test Xiom Vega Pro 1.8mm for the RPB.

BH Doublefish Hunting Shadows 8338

Blade: Victas ZX-Gear In (inner carbon blade with Limba top ply -- 86g weight)
FH: GEWO Nexxus EL Pro 48 max (black)
BH: Stiga DNA Pro M max(red)

Really nice blade with wings pre-sanded and blade pre-sealed. Feels like an all-wood blade. Power kicks in when swinging fast.
