Fast Blades: suggestions and feedbacks

[manuvernillo]

Dear friends,

I am playing since one year and half with a Joola Nobilis PBO-c, with a Joola Rhyzer 50 on fh and Rhyzer 48 on bh.
It is a fast blade with good control and nice touch, not hard since, I guess, the outer layers in Hinoki let you feel the ball when you touch it.
As said, I liked playing with it, I think I improved with my game but I start to look for something else, since many spin shots still have a quite high arc, even if I working on my technique trying to get more flat ones.

I am considering to move to a slightly faster and harder blade, but still with a good control. Don't want something OFF++, but faster and harder than my Nobilis.

The blades I am considering are:
TIBHAR
CCA Unlimited (or VS Unlimited)
DONIC
Crest Off
VICTAS
Koki Niwa
DHS
Hurricane Long V

Any suggestion? Critic? Feedback on the blades?

Thanks a lot
Emanuele

Exactly. Be prepared to lose that when switching your blade ...

I found the Koki Niwa to be a good "feeling" blade as well, the CCA/VS not as much.

I read that the the sweet spot of the Koki Niwa is not that so large, than it is not a forgiving blade... Did you experience anything like that?

Thanks
