I just bought Donic Blue Fire M1 Forehand and Hurricane III Neo for my Backhand but i'm not sure which blade will suit my style ( Looping, close range game ) so which one you think it's the best of this ones :

Ma Lin Extra Offensive
Samsonov Alpha
PG9/PG7
Classic Offensive S

Yasaka extra offensive is pretty hard...and you got 2 hard rubbers there,so would be a bad conjunction ,imo.
Samsonov Alpha is ok,but i prefer the touch of samsonov premium contact.
Pg9 never tried,but pg7 i just can say its a must,Hurricane righthand,tin arc on left, you would not regret it.
Xiom i never tried too...

...but anyways,all of the blades u said,are pretty diferent (YEO is hard and a strong Off blade,Alpha is an All+/off-,pretty flexy,Pg7 between Off/off+ and Xiom is an off- !),you should say your level ,how is your technique,Offensive,def,allround off,allround def...and them we could recommend you something.

good luck

I only play with some friends now but i played on CF Estrela da Amadora which was one of the best clubs in Portugal.

I have a similar style of Matsuidara but i do more Looping than he does and I usually do a lot of Backhand Sidespin instead normal TopSin .

My backhand is mainly for block and some flicks but no more than that .

I would disagree, although you don't maximize the rubber by putting h3 on the bh, it is still a decent rubber for short game.

I also use fairly hard rubbers on my YEO and I don't see how its a bad combination. IMO it provides a good all around control build.

I've used samsonov alpha on speed glue days, too slow for modern table tennis.
I used YEO last year, with rubbers similar to Hurricane neo, and its very very good but I used it for serves and 3rd ball attack.
A friend of mine bought this summer a pg7 and i tried it for some time, it doesnt have a nice feeling, not that fast.

I like the YEo better.

Well if so then the hurricane 3 is not your rubber haha Im sorry if you wasted money but the hurricane is not a backhand rubber at all. does anyone knows what samsonov uses on his backhand? that may suit your backhand blocking style
