Ask The Experts

Blade: Timo Boll All-Round
Forehand: Tenergy 05-FX 1.9mm
Backhand: Tenergy 05-FX 1.9mm

Question: Hi,

I am currently looking to purchase a good table tennis blade for myself which goes well with the Tenergy 05-FX. I was wondering if you could let me know if my combination is good or if I need to change my blade. I am more of an all-rounder player.

Answer: Hi Rajeeb,

Your blade is a good one. It is a little slow. If you want a touch more speed the Timo Boll ALC or the Innerforce Layer ZLF would be a step up.

Enjoy,
