I am a novice and I want to make my own paddle

Michael Sutter Asked 14 years ago

I have been told that novice should use or start with a allround blade with all around rubbers.  now I have decided on either the Joola Trix medium blade, or the Donic burn All+.  my problems are which rubbers should I use?  I was thinking forearm Joola Mambo H 2.0mm(High speed), and back hand with Joola Brave 2.0mm(high spin).  Am I getting too big too soon and over-shooting my blade with extreme rubbers?  or do you have some good recommendations for some good all around rubber?

Hi Michael,

I will hand this over to our readers. 

You are correct though, that you shouldn't go for anything too fast to start with.  If you think the rubbers are too fast, they probably are.
