Topspin with new bat

Hi, Following PingSkills advice, I replaced my high speed ALC blade with an all wood blade to be able to learn the right stokes, that worked for me like a charm after 3 months doing training and competitions , I'm now ranked third on my 200+ players club on the monthly progress report (points gain etc..). I do a full forehand stroke to loop the ball near the table for back spin balls and at mid-distance for no-spin balls. I felt ready for my old ALC blade and then decided to give it a try. while it is a loop monster for back spin balls, my problem comes from no-spin balls. It seems like the looping stroke won't work anymore with long and no-spin balls and I need to make it more direct top spin stroke instead. I was totally unable to control my ALC blade but now it is no different from the all wood blade except for this stroke on the no-spin balls. One minor observation I should be honest to mention: the ALC comes in a flared handle while my all wood I purposefully bought it in anatomic. I felt right away I was more comfortable with the anatomic handle, not sure if this may have that negative effect on my stroke. My question is, to not ruin my progress, should I go back to my all wood blade or I should give the ALC more time to be able to adjust for that one stroke.

N.B. My game is very very offensive and high risk style of play.

Hi Musaab,

I would now persevere with the ALC blade.  Relax your hand and perhaps slow the stroke down slightly to get the feel of it.
