Two speed blades for double inverted, does anyone use any of the made for pimple type blades just to have a slightly slower and faster side?

I have a custome blade with the FH side using a softer wood than the BH side. It helps when I play with SP or MP on the BH, but with both inverted on, and with so many rubbers to choose from, I do not see any benefit at all.

I've tried a number of "two sided" blades, and rarely are they any faster on one side than the other. You can change the tone of the two sides, and maybe a little the hardness. But the blade itself takes on the characteristics of all the plies together (ie stiffness) and that always makes the blade pretty uniform in speed.

Not to mention that it is a rare two-sided blade that is made so professionally that it doesn't start to warp in a year or two. Differences in moisture absorption on two sides slowly but surely lead to the warping of the blade - the face becomes non-flat etc.

I have zero issues with my Stiga Hypertech. In fact of the 100 plus blades I have owned over the years I place it in the top 10.
