Beginner's Blade

Sergio Catalão Asked 10 years ago

Hello,

First of all I would like to say how much I appreciate your website, your vídeos have been my "coaches" and it's fantastic to learn from them.

I am an amateur weekly player, and until now I have been using a pre-made bat.

I've been thinking in buying a custom bat, a stiga allround classic blade and mark v rubbers, as I've been told it was a great beginner's setup, focused on control.

It happens that I've the chance to make a great deal for the Stiga Allround Wood NCT blade, that's only been used for a few months.

Do you think this is good blade for me to keep me developing my strokes, as the stiga allround classic supposedly would?

I would also buy new mark V rubbers. Should I get 1.8 or 2mm?

Thank you for you time.

Best Regards.

Hi Sérgio,

That blade would be good too.  The rubber is the more important thing and if you are using Mark V it will be good for you to develop your game.

Go for the 2m rubber, it will last you longer in your development.

Thanks for your support of the site.  Your kind words are appreciated.
