Question:

Looking at switching to CP from shake hand. Looking at blades and rubber combinations for the most spin I can get with some speed but heavier on the spin. Thanks. – Derek

Answer:

Hi Derek,

Thank you for your question.

A good combination is the Viscaria blade with Tenergy 05 (2.1mm) on both sides. You can see the complete racket here.

Best wishes,

Coach Rachid
