Carbon blade for long pips

pdxpong said:

This may be a silly question but I've never played with pips before and would like to try chopping with long pips. I have many blades but they are all carbon offensive blades. I would prefer not to buy a new blade for the long pips as it's just experimental. Is chopping with long pips doable with a carbon blade? It seems like most choppers use slower all wood blades.

Also, of the current blades that I have which do you think would be the best to use for chopping with long pips?

-Timo Boll ALC
-Viscaria
-Xiom AZX
-Tibhar Kinetic Speed
-Stiga Dynasty Carbon
-DHS HL5
-Viscaria Super ALC
-Zhang Jike SZLC

Thanks for your input

your best bet might be dynasty carbon? I've seen a 2k player somewhat emulate a xu xin style with, chopping and etc... However most of these blades are considered fast with relatively shorter dwell time as compared to something that is all wood.

The idea of an all wood blade is that it has more dwell and more effective on spin reversal, while carbon is the opposite- less dwell, more speed.

DHS 08X is the only blade I can name out of the top of my head that IS a defensive carbon.
