Is there a thread here already about these blades? If not does anyone have experience with them?

Thanks.

I don't remember a topic specifically for these blade.

I've used a few of them, and they're quite popular in our area. I find the handle very comfortable, but because I like to twiddle it's not really an option for me.

I recently played in the US Open but lost in quarterfinals of my event, adult U1800. I was happy that I advanced as far as I did but I had to go back to my old long pip set-up forehand inverted hitting game.

Paddle Palace had a booth at the Open and I was able to grip several of the Dotec handles and found that I had no trouble twiddling them.

After the tournament (against my own advice) I bought an Appelgren Dotec Control blade that is markedly faster my Yasaka Sweden Classic; and set it up with Glayzer 09C and Dr. N Punch .6mm sponge but it still was lacking something.

I had one more sheet of Sabotage Anti, in 2.0mm and set it in place of the Punch rubber.

The Frictionless Anti game is tough to learn but I'm learning to vary my loops on both FH and BH as well in learning a few different shots with the Anti both FH and BH.

This is a recreation of my eight months with the Anti, I have to remember there are growing pains trying to learn a new style, forget about winning or losing, develop the style.

The Sabotage chops with ease against any spin and no spin.

If one is patient enough to learn the frictionless anti game, yes, then it is very effective.
