Best Long Pimples to Practice Against

[GoldenFlame]

Hey!
I am looking to put a long pimple practice bat together for me to give to either my coach/practice partner, so I can to try and improve my game against long pimples as i don't get enough practice against them.

So to any Long Pimples players do you have any recommendations as to what most long pimples players would use with fairly high spin reversal so I can practice against and get more use to how it changes coming off a long pimpled bat. I mostly come up Against more modern defender style of players

Looking for both Pimple Rubber and Blade Suggestions, Or if it will work well for Long pimples, and isn't too slow, I do already have a TSP Supper Defence Blade that someone gave me a while ago.

If there are any Butterfly Blades or rubbers that most modern defender long pips players would use that that would be preferable as i can get discounts on butterfly equipment, But if there is something better or more commonly used from a different brand then happy to go for that.

I'm not sure what makes sense here, but here's the pips I see getting a lot of use:
Tibhar Grass D.TecS
Butterfly Feint Long (2 or 3 idk)
Victas Curl P1v

Dawei 388D

 

[Gozo Aruna]

110% frustration guaranteed!

The blade is OK! You want to get use of "away of table chops" and not for blocks near the table, right?
Then ΒΤΥ Feint Long 2 and 3, Victas P1V and P4V, Stiga Horizontal 20, Yasaka Phantom 0012, Dawei 388D, Friendship/729 837
In bold the most commonly used. Sponge 0.7 up to 1.4mm (depending on player preferences and the pip construction).

Butterfly korbel and diode v is common for defense. Curl p1v is an all time classic. Would stay away from the feint long, they're dated.

If you want something cheaper, sanwei defence alfa or palio chopper 1. And for pips, yinhe neptune or dawei 388d-1.

If it’s only for practice: Grass or Ilius B in OX on one side and Feint Long 3, Ilius S or P4v in max sponge on the other.

This gives you practice across the widest spectrum from most frictionless to highest grip. Perfect for system training.

Feint Long 2 and P1v in ~1mm will fall somewhere in the middle if you want to make up a racket with inverted on one side.

Your coach will need to have good ball feeling to be able to control Grass doing more than jabbing type shots.

you're not practicing AGAINST some rubber

you're practicing WITH your partner

 

[Lazer]

You are practicing with YOUR own rubber, against Your partner and their rubber 😉

Actually both are correct against or with you partner. But when it comes to rubbers used…
