Hi everyone. My name is Torkel and i am 48 years old. I started to play table tennis in 1991 and played for 6 months. After 32 years brake i started again in february 2023. And i just love the game. I play in the 4 division. I would say i am at a beginner level, but starting to win more and more matches.
One thing i love about table tennis is the big selection in equipment and i have spend to many hours watching youtube and searching revspin to learn more. But that is also my fault. I change equipment to often. I really hope someone can give me a tip about what equipment to choose. My current blades are:
Yasaka Sweden classic / Yasaka razka 7 soft.
Stiga carbonada 45 / Razka Z (before razka X).
TSP black balsa 5 / Razka X (before Razka Z).
Ma long seven Large handle / Andro Rasanter R42
The two first blades is with a straight handle, and i found out i prefer flared (i use butterfly grip tape). The yasaka dont give me the right feeling/to slow. I love the Stiga Carbonada blade. Just perfect except the handle. Both with Razka Z and X. The TSP black balsa i strugle to find the right feeling with. The Ma long Seven is also very nice, but the rubber is to fast for me. To big catapult effect.
So i hope someone can give a advice on a rubber to use. My search says Yasaka Rigan or Xiom Vega Europe.
I think i would like to use the Ma Long Seven blade or to buy Tibhar Zodiac Libra SAC.
Sorry for the long first post. I appriciate all advice. Please let me know if i should post the equipment question in another place.
Best regards
Torkel
