hello , i am currently using sanwei t5000 carbon and sanwei ultra spin , but it lacks the speed and spin i need , and i am planning on switching to yhine v14 pro and sanwei gear hyper rubbers blue and balck , medium hard sponge on aliexpress https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007973812901.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.202b38daTfJwyB&mp=1&pdp_npi=5@dis!NGN!NGN 52815.16!NGN 28979.92!!NGN 28979.92!!!@2103864c17564044244684910e7f3d!12000043101079531!ct!NG!2816675718!!1!0how would this setup feel
If a carbon blade and ultra spin rubbers aren't providing the speed and spin you want then unfortunately it's purely a technique issue. Switching to equipment that's faster and more spinny will only leave you with even less control over the ball than you have currently.

Assuming you are a beginner who wants to advance then I'd recommend a good all wood blade (Butterfly Korbel, Primorac or Grubba) paired with Rozena or Rakza 7 rubbers as an example will give you all the speed and spin you'll need for a long time to come.
Get a small bit of coaching too and you'll jump levels in much much quicker time than spending any more money on equipment.

I haven't tried the Sanwei rubber you referenced so I can't directly comment on it but it does seem like a reasonable choice that would likely pair well with an all wood blade for a developing player.
Cheers

It will be a quite different feeling. The V14 Pro is quite a bit faster than the T5000. The Gear Hyper rubbers are more similar to European rubbers, but much more linear. I feel that it all depends on how experienced you are in table tennis. How many years have you played?

Ok. Then you might know what you are looking for, but this setup will be quite fast compared to your present. A lot of the speed and spin lies in your wrist as well, but with the Gear Hyper I would choose a bit softer and slower blade with an inner carbon layer. Check out the Yinhe - M202, Sanwei - Nova Carbon or LOKI - Arthur W81 Inner perhaps...

if you haven't played with the blade or rubber before , you might not understand what i am saying , the blade has carbon but it is not fast , and the rubbers are slow also (for me tho) , it lacks that punch , and the setup give too much vibration , yet , the control is top notch , but i don't really that , i crave for more spped and spin , on an european/japanese style rubber , with reasonable vibration , and catapult effect , not something that will be crazy fast tho , that's why i chose the rubber cause i read it is forgiving and the spin and speed is quite higher than the rubber i currently use and also has medium catapult effect and the power of the rubber get activated according to the force which i need , and as for the blade , alc give a good feeling and sweet spot while making the blade reasonably fast

I feel that it would work better with the Gear Hyper rubbers. These blades aren't too slow. They just add some more feeling to the setup. The V14 Pro is quite hard and fast, but it's all your decision.

Use Butterfly shakehand blade , play with right hand only and pair it with Tenergy / Dignics / Zyre only.

Ok 👍
It's probably just not a very good racket then hance the slow pace and lack of spin.
What level do you play at?
You don't want to buy something too fast.
If you are serious about improving your game and your technique then stay away from Carbon would be my advice.
If you are just playing for fun and technique etc isn't really your goal then go carbon and whatever. You can still have fun as a flat hitter and carbon works for that.

The nova blade sounds a bit non standard. I would go for something tried and true like Sanwei 75 inner or Yinhe Pro 01.
those are too fast and less feeling , i'd go with what the other guy said , the nova carbon and hyper gear med hard , i have read the review of that particular setup and it seems pretty promising just the way i like it
