AJ Carney
Your Ask the Experts question was answered by AJ Carney. He is a Table Tennis Manager and Coach at Triangle Badminton & Table Tennis in Morrisville, NC. Coach Carney’s response is as follows:
Hello Miguel,
 
When asking which blade is best for “fast attack and spin”, it is important to know that blades will mainly determine how much speed and feeling/control one wants. When talking about rubber, this will determine how much spin and speed. Technique plays a huge role in creating speed and spin on your shot as well as the equipment.
 
My recommendation would be the Harimoto Super ZLC as this gives you great speed, great feeling (the least stiff blade), and the highest control out of the list you provided. This blade gives you the best balance of all the areas you would want.
 
Hope this helps!
Coach Carney
