Hey!
I would say I'm an medium-advanced amature player. Currently using Joola K7 with Butterfly Sriver FX rubbers. My problem is that the K7 blade is dead, no feel to it and it is really hard to control the ball. One of the guys in the club have a Timo Boll ALC with Joola Rhyzm-P rubbers, and OMG how much more feel that blade has! It is a bit pricey though. I'm thinking of trying out the new Timo Ball CAF, because I've red pretty good reviews on it, mostly saying it has the same speed than the TB ALC but with more control. Firtsly I would stick to the Sriver FX rubbers and later on switch to Rozena or Tenergy. I need something fast, but not extreme fast with really good feel and control. Any thougths? Or other suggerstions?
Thanks!

So I nailed it down to 4 blades:
XIOM Extreme S
Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive
Butterfly Timo Boll CAF
Butterfly Viscaria

The XIOM and the Yasaka are a lot cheaper than the Butterflys. Both 4 have really good reviews. Also the XIOM and Yasaka are all wood blades wich may add to have more feel to them. So wich one would you choose? Any other suggestions are welcomed!

Ahem. Try this blade.

You want feel? We got feel.. :lol: Lots of feel. You don't have to spend $70 to get feel. The blades you listed are pretty fast (and expensive). I suppose we'd want to know what "medium-advanced amature" means - are you rated over 2000 yet?

The above mentioned blades seem to be pretty different from each other, in terms of both, composition and playing characteristics ..
