Hi all,
I've changed in December to a quality allwood blade, AVX BT777, and changed to chinese rubber on BH, an attempt to trying to improve my BH technique, before I try SP on BH, as in match play I hit more than loop on BH and the bouncy nature of tensors/Tenergies makes me go far from the table lobbing. So, I love the feel of this blade, enough flex and still solid, I can make good receives and super spinny loops. About BH rubber, it is so pleasant to practice with, I can handle easier chinese rubber on BH, easier receives, can loop underspin and can loop more consistently(while praticing). But I've noticed that(in match play):
- I need to hit much harder both in BH and FH;
- It's harder to put pressure to opponent, maybe because I was used to faster blades;
- They easily counterattack or block my loops, as they got spinnier and easier to make full swing loop, but they got slower, and the effort is bigger;
- My BH in matchplay isn't that good, because I play too FH oriented and I have to play more active with my BH with this rubber, because neither hit or lob are the strengths of this rubber.
That was my last attempt to change to SP on BH. It was the most pleasant rubber to pratice with, but it seems in match play, without the right amount of praticing hours needed, it will be difficult to change the way I play, as I'm only loosing points, because hit isn't strong and can't lob. So as I've posted on another thread, I'll focus on my strong points. I'm not hoping a quick fix, I'll have to endure some losses until I can play better with SP.
Unfortunately, as this equipment forced me to do much more effort on my strokes, it caused pain in my shoulder and in my arm, that forced me to stop as I stopped playing for now until it gets worse. I'll go to doctor to see how much time I need to stop from TT until I fully recover from my arm and shoulder.
So, I'm not asking for a new blade or so. The reason I've changed to allwood was mainly because my poor BH, because I could do strong hit's and lobs, but the loop was weak and the receives also(couldn't handle the spin sensivity). But with SP thats not a reason to stick with allwood, as my FH technique is solid and I can adapt easily to any blade, plus I'm thin and fit right now. And I'm afraid that the pain comes back if I mantain the BT777, as I need to make big effort, so I was asking if in this case it would be better to return to composite.
Best Regards,
Eduardo
