It is the "feeling" factor for sure that has the final word when all other params are in tune. The problem is that when we talk about the ABS's, it seems there is no going back to the all+ blades, not even off- considering the pros. Truls Moregard which I'm having an extreme pleasure watching him play, has basically an all+ game and uses, I belive Carbonado 290! which Stiga describes as the off+ (european scale) type blade ... craaaa..zy ; )
I think even with defensive players, it's all about having the ability to retain the energy of the ball that the opponent gives. That's why they go that way. But honestly, I'm just guessing. It would be awesome if Dan could ask this question from few pros to get their opinion on this as well.
