Sorry, my fault. I looked the US site of the Tt11, price has changed when I changed the country. But 67 euro is really good If you can afford to buy.

How heavy is your current blade? Are comfortable with blades that weigh around 90g ? I might have something for you

Blade is 90g, whole setup almost 200g.

Ok, so that would not change much.
Got one of these lying around if you are interested https://yasakatabletennis.com/product/atletico-power/

It is an innerforce HL5/W968 from a well known brand so most likely way higher quakity than the chinese clones/knock offs you'd find on aliexpress. I'd be willing to part from it for 60€ but i'd still recommend that you try your allwood 5ply first

200 grams sounds like a mistake
Fastarc G1 weighs about 48 grams without glue, C1 is even lighter. The weight of your racket should be within 186 maximum 190 grams (due to glue).
If you have reglued rubbers very often and the glue is not removed from the rubber, then I assume a possible 6 grams plus. If so, then remove the old glue from your rubber.

I just glued 1 time, it is 190g. I said almost ~200g

Thank u for the offering, it seem quality blade but i think this blade playing most likely outer carbon because of thick core and thin outer layers, rated stiff and hard by users

 

[AlperZhendong]

I ordered Sanwei Surge Prism (limba, ayous, yellow alc) I don't expect premium quality but ok, I will update this topic after few sessions with new blade.

One of the best combos for C1 and G1 is the Clipper Wood if you cant make them work on a faster blade.

First message updated.

UPDATE 22.07.2026

Even though the total weights of the two blades are almost identical (91 grams for the Sanwei vs. 92 grams for the Yinhe), the Sanwei feels much more head-heavy. My initial impression compared to the V14 Pro is that it feels significantly softer and bouncier, making it less controllable in the short game, in my opinion. In particular, the C-1 felt very mushy. I would also say that the overall build quality of the V14 Pro i
To be honest, I expected the throw angle to increase dramatically when switching blades, but there wasn't a huge difference. However, the dwell time increased noticeably, making my spins and serves a bit more effective. Compared to the V14 Pro, it is a much slower blade and provides better control from mid-distance. You can really feel the carbon on blocks and hard hits. While my ball feeling has improved, I don't think these rubbers are compatible with this blade. I believe harder rubbers would be a better match.

For the forehand, I'm considering a 3-layer boosted Hurricane 3 Neo (H3N), and for the backhand, either the Donic BlueGrip J2 or J3. What are your thoughts?

it happened what was to be expected. The difference is not big enough and the downgrade is not big enough to feel comfortable yet. THere should be a point in time where you should realize that an all wood would fit you better. What you are now trying with harder rubbers is exactly the opposite of what you should do. No, harder rubbers are not better suited for the blade for a player who can't properly use the G-1 on it.

I guess we will see your next post in a year when you complain not having progressed while trying every chinese rubber and every booster available.
