Hi everyone here,
I am seeking a backhand rubber. Here my story goes:
1. I was using Sriver El 1.9mm for few months on backhand. It was OK in terms of speed and spin.
2. Then I switched to Rozena 1.7mm. I have been on Rozena for about 3-4 months since then. I have been receiving regular coaching for about 1 month already (4-6h/week). My forehand rubber is Rakza 7 1.8mm; and I really like it.
Problem: In coaching sessions, on my backhand, I practice on how to loop backspin balls and do banana flicks. However, I am finding my paddle head-heavy because I am using Butterfly Kenta, which has a small handle. With head-heavy paddle, it is a bit hard to have a fast racket speed to consistently loop backspin balls and do banana flicks.
Question: Rozena is as heavy as Tenergy 05. Therefore, I am doubting if I should try Tenergy 05-fx (1.7mm) or Tenergy 64 (1.7mm), so that I reduce my paddle's weight while maintaining/increasing spin and/or speed. For additional info, my backhand punching is deadly; but I struggle sometimes especially when opponents do spinny backhand serves. Do you have any comments? Thank you!
Oh by the way, please don't suggest other rubbers as I am only interested in Rozena 1.7 or T05-fx 1.7 or T64 1.7 for my backhand.
