My previous set up was Yinhe N10s + 2xMercury 2 medium. I just got YSE and glued the old mercury rubbers to it. The change was drastic, much more than I anticipated. The feeling and feedback is insane now. The N10s is noticeably better in feeling than a premade racket, which I liked, but YSE brought that to a whole new level. The control and spin gains were massive too. Pushes and chops, which I don’t normally use, were flat and not easy to control with N10s. Now they are super easy to place and actually have a nice amount of backspin. Aggressive top spin is what I mainly play and with the YSE I was able to apply more spin and have much more control over the shot trajectory. Maybe I lost a but of speed with the new blade but that is not a problem. I like playing aggressively, but not with fast rackets, rather slow ones, with which I can use my body to generate power and spin. This also helps me perform shots more correctly as I do a more proper movement now.
So then what rubbers should I upgrade to? Should I even upgrade at all? The blade upgrade definitely helped me with training and improving technique. Would a new rubber help with that as well?
