Most beginners (using the 40+ ball) will have no issues handling rubbers that are slightly faster and have more grip. My short game is extremely good and i can open up with the backhand flick very well. I have extremely good footwork and a good forehand and a consistent backhand away from the table. Rubbers can do a great job with spin without being overpowering. Does anyone have an inexpensive inner composite blade they could recommend Before my setup snapped i was using lightly boosted sriver paired with a ktl instinct+. What I feel people miss out on is that spin is very important in control as well especially if you want to become more offensive oriented. With table tennis 'too much power' is a problem and you need something that will not launch the ball off the table. I would liken it to tennis in that beginner's rackets will help players with 'power' and 'spin'. From the description I was expecting it to be slower, just not as slow as it was. The Gambler is much, much slower than the W-6. The setup I usually run is a Galaxy W-6 with Dawei Inspirit Quattro rubbers. Of course you could play with the Mark V forever but most out there need some 'help'. Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Custom Gambler Professional Table Tennis Paddle with ThermoPoly (TP). Some people have better reaction time and coordination than others (naturally). All great attributes but not necessarily because of playing with the Mark V. But it is because they have a great knowledge of the sport, anticipation and hand eye coordination and can place the ball anywhere on the table. Having said that there are still a lot of players using Mark V even after 5-20 yrs and they have high ratings. OR just keep using a pre-assembled bat for a bit longer since the Mark V isn't exactly an inexpensive rubber. If you are getting some help or coaching or have been playing sports for a long time with good hand eye coordination I think that there are better choices out there. User Ratings (24) There are 9 users using the Dawei Inspirit. My opinion is that the Mark V is only good for beginners who will get zero training, or only play once a week, or have very little athletic aptitude or only want to use FH drive shot. (i'm not talking about a beginner vs an intermediate but two players at a similar level but very different rubbers and blade) It will put the ball on the table for sure, but you also will be getting balls ripped back at you which can be disheartening in it's own way. It is very correct that you need to have/develop good strokes to win points with Mark V & 40+ ball. There are a ton of solid not-too-fast rubbers out there that can easily be handled by someone playing for 6months+ and playing at least 3 times per week. I think there is a difference in philosophy in terms of 'beginners' and obviously each beginner is different and we can never know how a person is really playing and training even with the questions they answer, so the Mark V is an easy choice.īut with the 40+ ball I think the gap between Mark V and the fast ESN/tenergies is larger than ever. But i also can understand people who still like to recommend it. I agree that with the 40+ ball that Mark V is slightly outdated and I no longer recommend to beginners I work with.
