I went with this one looking for a lighter blade with a moderate amount of bounce!
First, I'd been using a Butterfly penhold-style blade before, but it was really old — a 30-year-old piece with no rebound left, and even though it's the rounded-corner type, the face was a bit on the small side, so I decided to start fresh with a new blade.
The speed is decent, but the impact feels light, so I can't really put out heavy balls.
As for spin, since the blade is light, it's outstanding for how easily you can vary your motion. You can even pull off reverse-side pips attacks.For control, if I use max-thickness tension rubber the middle pushes go long since it dampens the bounce less, so I've gone with a lower-hardness European rubber around 42 degrees thickness instead. Thanks to that, my forehand hits and short game are very stable. Flipping to the long pips side, my stops with extra-thin sheets are perfect too. Just watch out — pushes or chops that are placed a bit too loose and slow get attacked.
Going forward, my style is going to be built around long pips as the main weapon with inverted rubber on the backhand for returns, and I'll keep training with that direction in mind.
