Hello there,  I was wondering if anyone could point me in the correct the direction of a good blade/rubber combination.  I've put a lot of research into it and from what I can tell most of the numbers and factory descriptions are arbitrary so what i really need is some advise from someone who has handled the product.
     What I'm using now:  right now I'm using a Donic Waldner Dotec Carbon,  with Friendship 729fx on the back hand and Vstage on the fore-hand.
     The Problem:  I'm sure someone will comment of the goofy inovation of the handle of my curent blade but,  A coach who used the bat himself let me take it for a test run and although i was less experienced at the time, i really liked the feel.  however the problem seems to be my forehand,  i used to be a standard off+ player, who tried to end the point quickly with a powerful shot within the first 3 hits.  but now after some more coaching and experience have drifted away from that and have become more focused on loops instead of smashes. 
     It seems the V stage's power makes the arch of the ball much lower along with the hard feel of the blade.   I want something that will give me good touch close to the net but also something that i can use 10 feet back looping and counter looping with a higher arch.
