Hi Guys - I need some help.
Due to injury, I struggle to use proper forehand technique and can't rotate properly. I still counter hit very fast and attack fast on my backhand, but when I have to generate power on my forehand from scratch, it's a real struggle. Often instead I will do a slow spinny shot!
I want to develop my forehand flick, but the low dwell time is making it hard for me.
So given that I like fast counterhitting, blocking and doing slow spinny shots when the ball comes slow, I am wondering what rubber to choose for my forehand that also allows me to more easily do spinny flicks.
I use an inner carbon blade or a 7 ply blade to keep enough power for my backhand and my previous forehand rubbers are Rasanter R50 and FastArc G-1.
Should I be going to a softer rubber? Will I lose my counter looping/blocking ability or serve spin?
I have considered Rasanter R 42, Rakza 7 Soft or Fastarc C1, but I don't know if they will help with the flick and lack of forehand looping power or not.
Feeling confused
