Your paddle ?

[Nosti49]

Hi all,

my favorite wood was the last generation of the Banda 2000 with the straight handle. I used to be an allround player before

Unfortunately it is no longer sold since several years.

Now I play with Donic Power Play wood and this is much more offensive.
Forehand: Sriver EL maximum (approx. 2,5 mm's ) 1 time fresh-glued
Backhand: Sriver EL 1,9 mm (before 2,1 mm) without fresh-glue

So really good against defense players

Ciao

Norbert, with which Donic Powerplay blade do you play? There are different models, and the Senso V1 is the fastest.
If you're looking for more control, maybe you could try an Andro blade, they are very light and have more control than many of other brands.

Hi Francis,

I do not have it just with me, but I guess it's the Persson Power Play (the one with the blue line in the handle - my wife has the same as Allround - with red line in the handle).

I don't know the Senso V1.

Is it really faster than the Persson (as I said: I guess it is this type) Power Play ?

And: If I would have more control with the Andro (didn't try it yet, but I will in the summer after "season's end"), how much speed will I loose vs. the Persson ?

Ciao

wood: yasaka dynamix : not easy to find but it is off+ and it's the wood that has the most layers. It is build in 17 layers and I think there is no wood in the world that has more. It's very fast but just a little slower than some corbon woods but it has more control.
rubbers: yasaka mark V GPS: a little slower than the normal mark V but it is very soft and has much more control.
Stiga neos sound: very fast but it has a good control due to my opinion, it is a soft rubber and when you speed glue it it produces a nice "sound". It is very good to use in your forehand
