For myself, over 85 grams without rubber will be categorized as heavy.

i would suggest you start off with a 5 ply racket, i would suggest a yasak blade aor a donic, go for the control feature rather than the speed,,,,,,,,,

I used Yasaka Gatien Extra before and I found it to be an excellent blade with perfect balance in control, speed and power. A great Cpen blade.

A light blade is supposed to put less strain on the wrist when using RPB. That's what a dealer told me. I tend to agree since my arm bone pops out of the wrist joint when using a heavier paddle. I'm not sure if that would apply to you though.

I would also agree that the Yasaka Extra and Offensive 40 are great C-Pen blades. Both are light, comfortable, have good feeling, and reasonably fast with the rubbers you have chosen. Plus, they're not exactly expensive relative to other blades.

Remember the formula F=M*A, if you reduce mass you'll have to swing harder to compensate.
PS: Yes, its good for a looping game. |

Gee thanks.
In that case, what good light RPB penhold blades are there? What shapes are good? |

I'd say go for a light blade, under 85 grams like the Yasaka Extra, Avalox 550, Butterfly Primorac CS. All are light, thin and have long and narrow blades. The Yasaka blade is the longest (164 mm) but the Avalox and Primorac are close. Hammond (why the X version?) is moderately light, but New Era is a Chinese rubber, so it will be a bit heavier. Most of the Chinese players who play RPB use a Chinese rubber on the forehand and Japanese rubber (like regular Hammond) on the backhand. -- Andrew |

A tip on the weight : ask for the exact weight of the blade you are going to buy, the seller must give you at least 2 or 3 weight alternatives for the same type of blade, then you can choose. This is due to the fact that during manufacturing there is always tolerance in weight, some manufacturers can have up to 10 grams tolerance,and 10 grams is a significant figure.
