Hey guys,
I play a counter/blocking BH and would choose for a punch block finish over a loop kill every day of the week.

Basically I want to test the waters in the SP category to see if I find anything that suits me better. At the moment I'm using Six Shooter in 2.0, which is too hard to me to loop heavy spin with and too slow for me to punch block for a winner.

From what I've read collectively these are good choices:
Dawei 388B, 729 802-40, and the Tango Ultra.

Since I DON'T HAVE ANYMORE MONIES!!! I was hoping someone could fill me in as to what to get. I'm looking for great at countering/driving, and great at offensive blocking, with a above average passive blocking. Oh and lightweight wouldn't hurt :P

Thanks heaps guys.

Hey, I have a similar bh as you and I use 802-40, I love it, its still spinny and has a very soft sponge, its just great.  you dont even have to concentrate to use it, I always surprise opponent by blocking their deadlyest smashes with little effort.  Its great for driving, flipping and smashing too.  You can also serve with it if you like but its prety fast so it often goes long when I try so...

good luck in your search

BTW its a good choise for going from inverted since its still very spinny and has a soft sponge so it plays somewhat like inverted, but with a kick.

Its realy fun too not having to clean it all the time, I've never cleaned them and havent noticed a difference in play, I think they will last for years

I have to buy the expensive butterfly Flarestorm and Speedy p.o. to compare with 729 802-40. 802-40 prevails and cheap too.Smile
