Blade & Rubber Help

|
Many players are often intimidated by the wide selection of
blade and rubber sheets available to them. Therefore,
we have called upon our knowledgeable coaches to help
answer the question:
"What blade and rubber combination do you
recommend for a beginning to intermediate level player?"
Depends somewhat on what someone wants to spend initially. Blades I would suggest: Grubba, Steger, Primorac, or Jonyer. Rubber I would suggest: I think all Butterfly rubber is excellent so at the lower cost I mention Flextra first for its quality and slightly less spinny surface.
