Hello everyone,
After a long break, I wanna start playing table tennis again but my current blade (XIOM Stradivarius) feels too stiff for me. My old blade was Yinhe N11 and I used to have more dwell time with that blade while looping, which allowed me to add more spin on the ball. I don't wanna go back to the same blade (N11) since when I tried to peel off my rubbers out of it, the blade was damaged even though I did it with lots of care. So I want to have a good quality blade that will last years for me and it must also be very flexible, allowing me to feel the ball and add heavy spin. With Stradivarius, I feel like the ball just directly leaves the racket as soon as I make contact.
To conclude, I have four wishes from my future blade:
Just in case anyone wonders, I have DHS Hurricane 2 Neo on FH and XIOM Omega VII Euro on BH.
Appreciate any advices from you guys,
Thank you in advance 😊

To conclude, I have four wishes from my future blade:
- Must be flexible and allow me to add my spin before shooting off the ball.
- Must give me good feedback of the ball so that I can feel the spin on the ball.
- Must be made out of decent materials such that it will last at least 5 years if taken care well and played 8 hours a week.
- Must have a large head. I noticed Stradivarius blade's head was smaller compared to N11, which felt like a less sweet spot area.
