Hi all,
New to the forum. I've been playing table tennis for a good while and am average enough for a basement player. I've been using the Stiga Pro Carbon with the standard S5 rubbers for the past 6 months or so. The rubbers have started to lose their tackiness, and I'm ready to upgrade. My questions are: can i continue to use this blade and just upgrade the rubbers? Is there a downside to that? Is there another reasonably priced comparable blade? Because the Pro Carbon is the best paddle i've ever used by a wide margin, i have no idea what direction to go in an upgrade. I play a fairly attacking topspin game and use a variety of backspin/topspin serves---so I enjoy the speed of the Pro Carbon, but want something that can help me generate plenty of spin too. Also, of course, i can't break the bank here. I'd like to keep my total expenditure under $100.
Any thoughts?
Hunter
