Hi guys, looking for a bit of advice if possible.
I haven''t played TT properly in a couple of years but I've been asked to play as part of my new job so i've picked it back up again. I played at the weekend with the bat I had from when I previously played, it's a Joola Eagle Fast blade with Energy Xtra both sides. I picked it back up a lot quicker than I thought I would actually.
However, the big problem I felt was the rubbers just feel far too soft for me now. They didn't give me the response or the feeling I was after, and so I was finding a lot of the balls I hit were pinging straight off the table, and even my short game was pretty dyer because I was just putting the ball straight into the net. It just felt like I couldn't feel the ball at all.
I've been looking at the new Tibhar MX series, more specifically the MX-S. I just thought it'd be best to ask for a bit of advice first before jumping into anything. I'm obviously an offensive player, I like staying close to the table where possible and putting the opposition under pressure, so that's the sort of setup i'm after. I think being as I haven't played properly in a good while it'd be best to get a new set-up from the get go and completely start again.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
