Hi pingskills

Thanks for your quick reply on my previous question. Do you recommend any blades that are not too expensive, and are good for controlled attacking. Ideally something with good speed and a long dwell time, to make extra spin rather than blazing speed to use with a fast rubber.

The one thing you forgot to answer on my previous question. You said Tenergy was faster, but does that mean it is spinnier as well. I know generally thats true but is it spinnier than Mark V and XS. As you can probably tell I love using spin :)

Hi Tevia,

From your previous question, it is not necessarily true that if a rubber is faster that it is spinnier.  Sometimes the faster rubber means less spin because the ball doesn't stay on the rubber as long.  Tenergy has good speed and spin though.

You need anything with an all round rating perhaps a touch faster than that.  Something like the Stiga All Round Classic or the Yasaka William Henzell Blade.

These rating blades tend to be a little cheaper than the faster blades as well as an added bonus.
