New blade help for beginner / intermediate player

[imgoodatgolfthough]

If you're from grubba and you intend to get an "upgrade", IMO primorac probably won't be too different compared to grubba in terms of speed. Something like Korbel SK7 or Clipper are probably better as an "upgrade"

ive heard that the clipper wood is very good.im a modern defender who likes a lot of control.

Appelgren All Play with medium soft rubbers will be a good combo to start with.

Definition of "beginner" is kinda wide in this thread. I would suggest all to all+ to this "beginner". Do the upgrade in the rubbers and when you can't do that anymore, change the blade. As a coach/trainer I must say that the biggest problem for "new" players = to fast equipment. Which results in a sloppy and uncertain technique.

My view of table tennis (NO IT DON'T MEAN THAT IT'S "THE CORRECT ONE" BECAUSE PEOPLE HAS DIFFERENT VIEWS) is to focus control and technique in both footwork, physical training and strokes with a solid allround bat. When you hit the point where the real disadvantage = not able to kill the ball, then start upgrade the equipment. E.g. a kid who starts out with a "slow" bat and by time learns to hit the table more and more has an more efficient practice then a kid with a bat that's to fast and misses let's say 30-70%. Simple math = more balls on the table = more balls played during a practice = a better progresse by time. Just by becoming older (closer to puberty) or better in a physical aspect helps you kill the ball with the same old bat. Stepping up in equipment can be a way to try to shortcut to success so do it first when you hit a point where it's really needed.

1) why are you trying to match the same brand for blade and rubbers?

2) whatever else you do, don't use Calibra LT. [emoji2]

I really would not worry about keeping same brand for blade and rubber. All it does it limit your choices. And there is no intelligent reason to do that.
