Where'd you get the dragon shadow from? can't find it online.

wow, Dragon Shadow Spin sounds very promising, Fell in-love with the Vega Asia when I was in Highschool, with the smaller ball back then i had ridiculous BH loops (at least it felt like it)

I actually wanted to visit and play in Otis once, since I had something to do in Manila that day, but I didn't know what to ride and didn't want to do Angkas lol. (I was at SM Manila)

The Dragon Shadow Spin and Control have the same topsheet but different sponge.
The Spin version comes in 39-40 deg with a DHS#22 like blue sponge and the Control version comes in 35 deg with a black porous sponge ala Xiom. Interestingly the Spin is tackier and the Control is less tacky. Really good rubber at the 1500 PHP price range.

From SM Manila, it's only 1 ride away. Take a bus, you can ask the guard where to take it. Take a bus going to Pandacan and that passes right in front of Robinson's Otis, fare is only 13 pesos if I remember right.

Based on some folks I talked to before, innerforce blade is also good for developing players. Of course u have to pair it with a good rubber which not too fast since it still has carbon in it. They say it has a wood feeling but when u do full swings and activate the carbon inside then you'll have enough speed as well to win points. I already got used to my viscaria and what I figured out was to pair it with rubbers that are not too fast. (rakza 7,mantra M,fastarc G1). It works for me so I hope y'all get the setup u need/want.

I have a inner alc blade, F3 pro, but I haven't used it. I do have some spare rubbers.. mostly chinese rubbers.
Coach, told me to stay with allwood as I have bad habits and after not playing for sometime lol

You can check DHS301. It has a lot of good feedback and the price is reasonable.

Feel is good on 301. But personally, the handle was too slim
