I train 3/4 times a week.
This doesn't necessarily mean you're an advanced player but I suppose different ppl have different definitions for this.
The bluestorms seem a little too dynamic for me, and I didn't feel the catapult effect as much with the dignics 05.
Dignics 05 has harder sponge so you don't get the same bounce from the rubber as with a blue storm or Tenergy.
I've tested an inner blade, which allows me to be less restrained in doing what I want. But sometimes it doesn't activate.
Inner blades are also not as stiff as typical ALC composition blades and offer a more forgiving impact. I use an innerforce ALC myself.
It 'activates' if you get enough racket speed with proper technique and timing. An advance player can usually extract this from the blade consistently.
Does the dignics05 still require a lot of commitment to activate?
Yes. The harder you hit the more you get from it, and really advanced players can get A LOT from it!
I felt better short-handed with it but less distant from the table.
Short game is easier because of the harder sponge, ball is easier to control as it doesn't jump off the rubber so easily.
But distance from table requires that you hit the ball with good technique and racket speed because there's no 'cheap' speed given from the sponge. You have to generate your own speed but for us amateurs there is basically no ceiling on its upper limits. You'd have to be Hugo Calderano to find that.
I feel a sensible setup might be an inner ALC (or something similar) with some Rakza 7s or Rozenas on it.
