Hi .. player needs help with choice of blade

[tropical]

Hi all,

Just joined the club here and need help to choose which blade will fit my rubbers/style. I am playing with Hurricane 3 on forehand and long pips Butterfly Feint Long II on the backhand. I have been using all+ Butterfly TimoBoll blade but think an upgrade of blade like carbon for better control. Which blade you recommend for my style?

You shouldn't try a carbon blade unless its is inner carbon 7 ply. Your best bet is an all- ro all+ if you prefer to attack with it, but anything that is medium in hardness and has some vibration to it will be good for your choice of rubbers. This of course also depends on your personal preferences as well as you need something comfortable for both your LP and your H3. If you are chopping with the H3 you'll need something that's still got some give to it to give you the added dwell, but you'll need just enough hardness to make sure your chops or chop blocks also give you a lot of reversal depending on your style.

What's your playing style Sir?
Generally carbon adds speed and rigidity not overall control (which lies most in technique).
