I play fast counterpunches and counterblocks with my backhand.

I need something that is fast while being able to spin well. My blade is BTY Sardius.
My current rubber is Sriver EL, but i find that its throw is a bit too high, such that i cant get a chance to spin it well on serves. so therefore, i need a rubber that is fast while being able to spin well.

a loud sound is a bonus too :)

EL is a good bh rubber for any level. You only need more training.

I find EL a bit too soft for backhand punches and block. I tried mendo MP and regular sriver L with better result.

i really need a more spinny rubber, as i play pips out. I cant get much spin out of my pips out rubber, so therefore i need the spin factor for my inverted.

Please recommend to me a new rubber that is fast and spinny. A loud sound would be good too

also i would need it to be firm (not VERY hard) as opposed to bouncy

For aggressive blocking, Desto F1 works well on a hard blade. F2 is a tad slower but gives better control. F3 is too soft for aggressive blocking.

I found that Sriver L plays like F2 on the blocks. Very consistent.
