Hi all,
I'm hoping to get some advice on my next table tennis blade and rubbers.
I'm currently using a palio tct (ti + carbon) blade with cj8000 biotech rubbers on both sides. I really like my current set up but realise that as an intermediate player I should perhaps have a less stiff blade. I watched a YouTube video which mentioned that an all wood blade would be a good choice for begginers / intermediate player as it provides a good level of vibration which seems to be an important characteristic for developing better technique.
As a begginer it seems I made the classic mistake of jumping up to an overly offensive blade.
I thought I might try buying the blade and rubbers seperate and putting them together myself. I'm aiming for a budget friendly build.
I'm thinking:
Blade: Butterfly Primorac OFF-
Rubbers: CJ8000 biotech 2.2mm
Another option for the blade might be the Butterfly Korbel OFF?
I've stuck with the same rubbers as I currently have as I like them, they seem to provide a good level of spin, they are also pretty cheap on aliexpress!
I should mention I play shakehand grip and would consider myself to have an all-round leaning towards offensive play stye - I think...
Any advice / suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Robbie
