Hello,

My current bat and rubbers are very worn, I want to change it to something new. Current setup is:

Blade: Tibhar Force Pro

Forehand rubber: Tibhar EL-S

Backhand rubber: Tibhar FX-S

I want to change brand to something else - maybe Butterfly? I'm really offensive player, I like to spin a lot, especially with forehand. Backhand is my weaker side, but still I want something pretty aggressive for this one as well. Before those Tibhar rubbers, I had double MX-P, but they had way too much catapult effect. I want to spend about £150 (207$) for whole setup. What can you recommend?

I will build it via this website, because they can make it up for me: https://bribartt.co.uk

Keep the same blade. If you struggled to control MXP, be aware that new ESN gen are harder to tame and even heavier. 
Rosewood V FL

Nittaku Fastarc G1-FH

Stiga DNA Pro-S MAX BH


Avoid any Butterfly stuff... at abusive prices. Raw power without control means nothing

Hi,

Have a couple of questions which might help break it down a bit more as there's quite a bit of kit out there to be honest.

what distance do you play from the table roughly?

When you say very offensive is it more spin or speed.

Do you play in the local leagues or country/british league. rough standard.

do you like your set up at the moment or are you just looking for a extra something? speed, spin etc.

Did you like the softer rubbers or were you looking for something harder, with more grip or control

Have the guys/girls at Bribar offered up anything on the suggestions yet?



Cheers

you may consider to buy a blade in this forum since it is usually a great bargain, and buy 2 rubbers yourself to glue.
