Help with Artengo Carbon Blade
Equipment
Regan D'mello Asked 9 years ago
Hey Alois,
I need help in choosing a faster blade as I have advanced in my game. I then saw this blade Artengo FW980 Carbon Table Tennis Blade (http://www.artengo.co.uk/fw980-table-tennis-blade-brown-id_8319555).
Is it a good carbon blade??? Is it good enough! And I want to learn to play with short pips on my backhand and use a faster rubber on my forehand. Any suggestions please!

Tone is in Your Fingers
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

Artengo isn't a very renowned brad, but they generally make decent products. Couldn't find any review of this particular blade on my usual websites. Watch out though, it is marked "Off++", which is supposedly "very very fast". Walnut is hard, carbon is stiff, so I would be a bit doubtful of the claimed "ball feel and control".
At that price you could get yourself some of the best sellers from Tibhar, Joola, Stiga, Donic...

Tried the Adidas P-3 on the backhand, very impressed. This rubber is fast, super spinny, with excellent control. It's like T64 at half the price. Thought short pips on the backhand is going out of style for younger players. P-3 is the go!
