Hi all, after your thoughts on which rubbers to put on my barricade blade. I'm thinking of 729 tackspeed 2000 for the backhand and der materialspezialist breakout short pimples for the forehand. My style of play is pushing until l can work an opening and then try to make a hit, it's a work in progress and I'm trying to avoid an endless pushing rally where I choke on hitting or hit half heartedly. I'm hoping the short pimples will help me hit through underspin. I currently use a butterfly timo boll control all- with tibhar varispin both sides. I know the barricade might be too slow but I can always put the rubbers onto a slightly quicker blade, any other suggestions or experiences welcome, thanks

Don't know if you will see this but play a Barricade and your style seems similar to mine. I have tried the new Troublemaker OX on my BH. You need to make aggressive pushes and will be rewarded with a lot of ball movement.

I have cut my Barricade smaller. Now its normal size. Same time it went faster. I think its allround blade now. I put Joola golden tango 1,8mm to FH and its very good for pushing and hitting game. Quite easy to open from backspin also. In Bh i have Dtech Ox.
