(my idea flexible blade with hard rubber ) for good topspin

An all-wood blade is definitely a good idea. I'd go for an ALL+ to OFF- blade since you seem new to the game. The Fextra is often recommended.

How long have you been playing?

I've only owned the first 2. Used the G9 for a few months with Haifu Whale. DHS has this at OFF+, but honestly, considering the flex, thinness, and vibration frequencies, it is an All+ to OFF- at best.

Should be the slowest on your list. Decent feel and controllable for a beginner.

Have fun analyzing everything to the Nth degree, you only have fun with that in your early days.

Middle of the road stuff will suit you fine for now, no need to go into Deep Ape mode over anything.

Unless you are receiving professional coaching, your equipment will help you only so much, but middle of the road stuff will give you a better chance to feel the ball and let you know if you mis-struck the ball.

You wont get that from many carbon blades as a ball struck well away from center feels good like you struck it center of mass.

You did well to exclude carbon blades for now, although a few do provide feel.
