I hit with a Joo blade a few years ago. I can't fully remember what it felt like. But it had decent feeling and great control and it felt fine with inverted rubber: the person whose blade it was, was trying it for the extra control. It was not slow. It was a fine speed.
So that would be worth a try. But any of the InnerForce blades might be fun to try. They are great blades.
Too many blades to choose from though. I also love the TB ZLF but it will feel different and harder, crisper than all the others.
The reason I stopped using my TB ZLF is that, even though it feels close to wood, I wanted that big wood feel. And I don't personally like how most of Butterfly's current all wood blades feel.
Their old Klampar-H and Jonyer-H were awesome blades. It is really too bad they don't make those any more. I am glad I still have my Klampar-H. But, I kind of love what I am using now. For me, my Virtuoso Plus is magically perfect. Does it make me play better? No. But it makes me happy to have such good feeling in my hand when I play. And there is no blade I play any better with. So, for me, I have my magic weapon.
