So I used to play Jpen, 1 side only

Then I realized I played about 2 steps closer than a typical 1 sided Jpen Player.

I also can close my paddle with my TPB well

My "coach" (as he is a player but still 30s) reccomended me to use Short Pips, because I hit well and have a solid TPB, and I also have a powerful explosive arm (because I'm a big guy for my age, newly 15 yrs and 185cm height)

And I agreed, so I used a short pips (802-40 Mystery III 38 deg) and a normal OFF- 5ply allwood blade (DHS W3020)

I wish to change to a stiffer and harder 7ply Cpen blade as It would be more advantageous for me, yet I do not wish to Clipper CR, as it is too heavy (top seed heaviness 104g)

I do not wish to change rubbers, I hate EJing

What would be an appropriate blade for me?

Would a DHS PG7 be good?
Would a Sword Blue be good?

Does the Fextra come in Chinese Penhold?

Iskandar

Yes, it is.

I am currently contacting my local seller to check if the CS Fextra is in stock

Would it be as stiff as a Yinhe N9s (the s series) ?

I heard that people in my club say it's stiff and hard, yet I only have the N8s which was rather flexy and med in hardness

Would a Jpen square headed blade work better in terms of Short Pips? Will it give more speed but less spin?

I currently own a Yinhe 985 which is rather stiff and hard. OFF Speed

They don't have one

What do you think about a Balsa Carbon blade?

Let's say, like the T10+/T11+ by Yinhe
Would it be better for my style?

The CS Fextra is available here:

And I suspect these are the same people (I've ordered from them before):

Is the Stiga Clipper Chinese penhold THAT heavy? If you're only using one sheet of rubber it should be pretty light. The reason I wouldn't buy the Stiga blade would be the price.. In the old days the Chinese pips-out hitters would use basswood 5 play bats - the blades were heavy by today's standards but the rubber was light, since they used one sheet only and the pips out sheets tended to be lighter in any case.

Iskandar

105 g + 2 rubbers would be heavy

I use a SP/MP Twiddle (No RPB)

and as my rubber totals to 80g, it'll be heavy

I think I should stick to a N9s now
I know it's koto and basswood 5ply

It's cheap too, like 10$

Might as well buy one or two sheets of 802-40 and Yinhe Pluto
