Hi again folks!
Well I also was thinking about some things I heard about these 2 blades. The Andro Super Core Carbon Light off is said to be stiff and it has no feeling it all. But my catalogue says the Carbo-Aramid is faster and stiffer as well. But everyone says the Carbon Light sucks and the Aramid Carbo has a great touch/feeling, although it's faster and stiffer than the Carbon Light. I don't get it? Also the Carbon Light is, as the name says, LIGHT. I like that, as 70 grams are way easier to loop with, as your arm speed will increase, due to it's weight. (Please correct me if I'm thinking wrong now) Which of these 2 blades would you combinate with the following rubbers and why? Or do you guys say I have to stick with my Ma Lin Carbon, in combination with these following rubbers.. - Joola Green Energy X-tra - Joola Energy Green Power - Andro Plasma 430 - Andro Impuls Speed ------------- Ma Lin Carbon Globe999/Saviga Inspirit Donic Opticon FH: Bryce FH: Mambo H BH: Almana Sound BH: Sriver BTY VSG Twist III Stiga Classic All+ Waldner Senso Carbon 2x Sriver G2 |

there will be no comparison between the control of these two blades,the andro carbon light does suck at everything except hitting high balls.
You keep asking the same question about that blade and everyone that has used it tells you it sucks,imo that would be enough for me but seems the only thing you are considering is the weight of the blade.
There are other blades out there that are very light I suggest you look at them or maybe you should just buy the carbon light and realise a lesson that it's best to learn from others mistakes than from your own mistakes plus cheaper.
Buy the carbon light and use it for a month you will be able to resell it on here for about $30

Well, let's say Andro Carbon Light sucks. But what about Andro Carbo-Aramid? Pingpongrob swears by it and says that is the ultimate blade for him. Anybody has an opinion on that?

| this is the best blade andro has made so far. if you get the plasma 430 rubber with this would be a good combo.also this blade is not as stiff as the carbo-light off it has more feeling and touch |

Just to add to everything thats been said. The Andro CF Carbo-aramid, is not a stiff blade at all. Whoever said it is, is not telling the truth.

Jim I think the op is asking about the opposite ends of the spectrum,one being one of the worst blades andro makes and one being the best of andro blades,he keeps asking about the Carbon light and quite a few people have told him it's not a good idea but then opens another post asking about it ------------- Blade Xiom Control 3/ALL+ BH Andro impuls speed FH H3 Provincial Tibhar CTE |

Crap depends on what you want to do with it, For instance the Andro Carbon Light is very good for fast flat smashing, combined with a harder sponge, produce blazingly fast shots, If your after Dwell Time, then forget it. ------------- Distributor for Andro, XIOM, Tibhar, Joola, Dr Neubauer, Donic, DHS, AIR, Dawei, 729 & Yinhe http://www.affordablett.com.au" rel="nofollow - http://www.affordablett.com.au |

don't intend to offend you mate but you keep asking the same questions about that blade and getting answers saying it's not a very controlable blade.
I have not tried the aramid one but would bet a lot of money it's better than the Carbon Light ------------- Blade Xiom Control 3/ALL+ BH Andro impuls speed FH H3 Provincial Tibhar CTE |

Well I guess it's an easy option: Andro Aramid Carbon is just a legendary blade as I hear everyone talking positive about it :D?
Didn't hear even �ne person who did NOT like it !
Anyway, I made my made up already one week ago: I'm gonna buy the Aramid/Carbon. But I'd still like to look @ some reviews and info, so comments are still welcome! ------------- Ma Lin Carbon Globe999/Saviga Inspirit Donic Opticon FH: Bryce FH: Mambo H BH: Almana Sound BH: Sriver BTY VSG Twist III Stiga Classic All+ Waldner Senso Carbon 2x Sriver G2 |

| I play with a Andro Aramid Carbon blade and must say if your have a spin oriented or blocking game this is a blade for you. The only drawback with this blade would be its not really good for flat hitting. I would say this blade is as fast as my KC and has a nice touch for the short game. |

| for me in mid distance aramid carbon is not very good because when i try to hook the ball up it just hits the net, i think its because its not fast enough maybe? close to table counter/loop is extreme fast and not ideal for serving too |

| I have no problem playing from mid-distance with Andro Aramid Carbon, actually thats one of strong points I like about the blade. Moving from a KC to a aramid carbon, I wanted a blade that could still play away from the table. |

@KoreaRulz: For Punching you should get the Super Core Carbon Light off+ version; fast, hard and light; good smashing blade. ------------- Ma Lin Carbon Globe999/Saviga Inspirit Donic Opticon FH: Bryce FH: Mambo H BH: Almana Sound BH: Sriver BTY VSG Twist III Stiga Classic All+ Waldner Senso Carbon 2x Sriver G2 |
