Custom TT Racket for an intermediate level player

Ajinkya Adhav Asked 11 years ago

Hi Coach,

I am an intermediate level player from India playing on and off for the last 10 years. I am starting to play regularly now. I wish to upgrade to a custom racket.
I am a left handed player with an offensive backhand for opening up serves, smashing and top-spins. I use the forehand primarily to top spin and smash (and maybe blocking and defensive chops).

I have previously used only premade rackets (Butterfly champ and wakaba series). I have shortlisted a few options

Blade:

1. Butterfly Jonyer Hii

2. Stiga allround

3. Waldner allplay

4. Andro CS 5

Rubbers

1. Mark V (both FH and BH)

2. Andro rocket 

3. Tibhar Rapid Soft 

Can you please guide me which combination would be good for my style of play?
Also, can you tell me which combination you would go for given my style of play?

Thanks,

Ajinkya

Hi Ajinkya,

I would recommend the Stiga Allround and Mark V.  We also have the PingSkills Touch with Mark V.
