Sure. 
But changing more than one variable is a way to achieve the perfect setup with minimal number of equipment combinations Wink. Otherwise, one would have to test at least 20 rubbers on at least 10 of his/her blades (not to mention rubber different thickness and blade different weights and handle styles that may eventually appear to be more tempting) = > 200 setups, easily.
By selectively picking the experiments and assuming that there is no additional blade-rubber correlation we reduce the expenditures... later, we have to ask a smarter colleague for advice anyways.

Ejing is over I believe. WSC is fantastic stiff enough and flexy enough to do what I want.
great blocks pushes and loops

I think I've heard it before, couple of weeks ago, or so. It looks like EJ is something you tend to do, variety seeking behavior etc. - if it enhances your enjoyment of TT, then so be it.

so after lots of ejing..............

Im sticking with the WSC
gone back to 05fx on my fh, just the 'get out of jail free' bounce suits my game
h3neo on bh, again I have a really spinny bh opener but the neo still allows me to push well

an end to EJing

the moral of the story is get the blade right first, then the rubbers!!

So ejing slows down but continues.
I have used WSC for 2 months and it has resolved some things.
I am using H3N fh and H3N or H3 bh on next blade.
WSC is too slow with these rubbers, so I have just ordered a well known popular 5 ply wood.

new Korbel

hoping it will be somewhere between TSPW (too fast) and WSC (tad to slow)

We will see.

You, I like you

Good luck with the Korbel, I actually went from the Korbel to a Violin (via an OSP Virtuoso +) that was also too fast with too little feel for me.

I hope I will stick with this setup for a while.

I am versus that 1st rule.
1st rule must be General Conclusion and last rule must give you last point why 1st rule is the most important. Let's think again what must be the 1st rule...

so im still on hurricane 3 neo.

korbel did not like handle
since then ive tried celero wood
yeo
and infinity again

I like infinity for looping but need normal hurricane on bh
yeo is very powerful blade even with hurricane 3 neo

don't like celero much but trying again.

I cant believe ive played for 30 years and only just tried Chinese rubber, its so spinny and controllable, I hate euro rubbers now when I try them, bouncy lazy rubbish.

You would be surprised how much the easy pace of Euro-Jap rubbers helps/is needed at higher levels - I tried to simply play with an unboosted H3 Neo but to no avail, kept losing to people that I usually beat due to being out paced in counter topspin play

Just stick with Infinity VPS. I think that's the "do-all" blade of today. I recently switched to it and have been playing very controllable (but at a much higher pace) than before. It's a phenomenal blade you can't go wrong with.

I play Nittaku Magic Carbon max (fh), and JUIC Nanospin II max (bh), opponents have trouble when I load the spin.

I'll never understand you dirty EJs!!! LOL
 
I tried only a handful of equipment but have been using the same setup for years.  I got my Timo Boll ALC and tenergy on both sides.  That's all I need.

Actually, here's a winning strategy to a good setup:
Choose any blade and put any Tenergy on it.  Done!
