or you can buy the offensive S and just get the dawei 2008 and whatever is left spend it on coaching
Xiom Offensive S is a great Blade. It is too fast for him. The 896 is not much slower. But it is so much less expansive (even though Offensive S is not expensive) that the 896 is still more worth it.
But I love the Offensive S. I do think it would be too fast for him. Add the rubbers you suggested and it would be a bad idea at any thickness. Those rubbers are simply to grippy and too spin sensitive and, even with 1.8 sponge, the sponge has too much catapult.
Look how often the ball is bouncing off his old worn rubbers without him having control.
The 896 with the Dawei rubbers which are way easier to control will be exponentially better for his development.
