Hi everyone!
I've recently turned 20 and my father offered to buy me a new blade, as I've been playing with my current one for 5 years now and maybe it's a good time to make a small upgrade in quality.
My current setup:
Blade - Donic Persson Power Allround
FH: Nittaku Fastarc G-1
BH: Raksa 7
I'm not a person who likes to change the equipment very often, especially the blade, that's why I want to make an informed decision. I must say I am quite unfamiliar with the blade market and I am not sure if it is the right moment to switch from a 5ply all wood blade to a 7ply all wood or even a carbon blade.
As for my style I would say I'm an attacking player who likes to work with spin on both sides, rather than speed, that's why I quite like the flexibility and control of my current blade. I am looking for something that will not completely alter my playing style, but will be an improvement for me in terms of quality and maybe I would appreciate tiny bit more speed as well, but nothing more than off- I think.
As for my level I've been playing table tennis recreationally for ~10 years, but only have been training in a club (3 times a week) for the last 1,5 years and currently playing my 2nd season in the lowest polish division (5th league).
As for my budget it is below 150$.
I would highly appreciate your suggestions, personally I was thinking about the Nittaku Acoustic or Timo Boll Spirit.
