Andro Hexer Grip SFX
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Andro Hexer Grip SFXThe greatest advantage of this rubber is precision and repeatability. Fabulous control. The spin is large, but not larger than victas ventus extra, for example. Great quality. Very good grip. Topspin - "piece of cake". Serving is precise and to the point. The rubber has a balanced, not too big catapult effect in contrast to the yasaka 7 soft. Therefore, there are no uncontrolled shots. Otherwise, yasaka is not inferior, but a bit more difficult to play. Short table play and raises are very easy.Jun 10, 2022 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Andro Hexer Grip

Review of Andro Hexer GripThe best rubber I have ever played with. I have been playing at an amateur level for nearly 10 years. It offers excellent spin, thanks to its superb tackiness, and produces a distinctive "click" sound when hitting topspins. The great grip also ensures perfect control. If you have been playing at an amateur level for 5–10 years, there is no reason to opt for other, more expensive rubbers. This rubber is complete in every respect—it has no weak points. If you strike the ball well, you can achieve quite high speed. Pushes are highly spinny and precise, while topspins follow an ideal trajectory (parabola).Oct 17, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Donic Baracuda

||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Donic BaracudaThe best backhand rubber I have ever played. Very precise and repeatable. It has a high throw, and on a fast board it is not slow at all, it is fast enough. Topspin is amazing, but the serve could be more rotating. Great rubber. You can get it for around $30-35 in some stores. I use a thickness of 1.8 mm. I recommend. This rubber is very durable, actually bulletproof...Oct 30, 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Tibhar Quantum X Pro Soft
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Tibhar Quantum X Pro SoftThe rubber is characterized by very good control and spin. It works great in blocks.It has enough speed. Works very well on medium-hard blades. For example, on Tibhar Stratus Powerwood.Mar 12, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Tibhar Aurus Prime
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Tibhar Aurus PrimeThe fastest rubber I have ever played. At the same time relatively soft. Considering such enormous speed, there is very good control. I have it for the backhand, 1.7 mm thick. When using blocks, you need to keep a more closed angle and the control will still be good. The rubber is precise when serving. It rotates well. Picks up the backspin serve well.Jan 29, 2024 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Tibhar Quantum X Pro Blue
|
 |
Tibhar Aurus Select
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Tibhar Aurus SelectThis is a very average rubber for table tennis. Control, spin, speed in all these shots are average and that's all I can say about this invention. Oh, and it blocks very poorly. There are better rubbers at this price on the market. I definitely won't go back to it. The MX-S is two classes better and a bit harder. It's better to add 10-15 dollars and have the MX-S.Feb 12, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
TSP (2)
 |
TSP Ventus Spin
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of TSP Ventus SpinThis rubber can be played effortlessly with a very spin ball. Especially the service is easy. The time the ball stays on the rubber is quite long, which makes the control exceptional. So it's easy to hit the spot on the table. Very high throw angle. Larger than a Donic baracuda. Short game is very easy, great feel. Rubber has a moderate catapult effect. Rubber fast enough to attack and good at blocking. Probably the best choice for beginners and intermediate players. Very easy to use, forgives a lot of mistakes.Jan 07, 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

TSP Super Ventus
|
Victas (1)
 |
Victas Ventus Extra
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Victas Ventus ExtraVery good rubber. Highest quality. Continuation of TSP Super Ventus. I give similar ratings because I completely agree with them. Fast rubber with very good rotation with high control. A very precise topspin, despite a relatively low ball flight parabola, enters the table precisely. Thanks to the small effect of the springboard, you can feel more confident with strong strokes. Raises and shorts are very controllable. Easy to pass. Receiving the serve relatively easy - the rubber reacts poorly to the opponent's rotation. It is very easy to catch upcoming opponent's rotation. It requires a few days of playing for it to acquire the proper properties. Recommended for players with at least 3 years of experience. The biggest advantages of this rubber, like TSP Super ventus, is rotation, control and consistency ... without the uncontrolled effects of a springboardNov 18, 2021 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Yasaka Rakza 7 Soft
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Yasaka Rakza 7 SoftI have been playing table tennis for 4 years. I have already tried a few rubbers. I think Yasaka Rakza 7 soft is a very good rubber for beginners. It is very soft, forgives a lot, has good grip. This is a typical rubber for all-round games. Very good for learning topspin. Both good for backhand and forehand. So far I've played rasanter 42, TSP Ventus Spin - and this gum is no worse than them. The throw angle is higher than in harder rubbers - which is logical. Fast rubbers give a flatter hit. The soft ones are a bit higher. You can play anything with this gum ... topspin, backcspin, sidespin, short game, block, it's easy to use. You aim wherever you want, not where another rubber tells you to. I highly recommend it. The price is adequate to the quality of the product. The highest quality product.Aug 10, 2021 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Yinhe (Galaxy/Milkyway) (1)
 |
Yinhe Mercury III EURO
|
||||||||||||||||||
Review of Yinhe Mercury III EUROI have it on FH and on BH TSP Ventus Spin. Before that, I also played Ventus Spin on FH for comparison. Yinhe Euro III rubber is relatively hard, I wouldn't call it "soft". It is harder than Ventus Spin and Rasanter 42. It is closer to Xiom Vega Pro or even Tibhar Aurus - 47 degrees of hardness. Yinhe rubber has a smaller catapult effect than Ventus Spin, and the rotation is also slightly smaller. This rubber presents poorly in a short game - or better technique is needed...The surface of the Yinhe rubber is rougher than that of the Ventus Spin / Rasanter 42. The Yinhe has a fairly low trajectory. The lining has a good control despite the fact that the contact with the ball is shorter than in Ventus Spin.Upgrade: It is generally necessary to have good technique to use this rubber because it is relatively hard. It is not rubber for people who want to start training. You must have at least several years of experience to deal with it. Perhaps it is soft in the Chinese classification, but not in the European one. I define it as roughly 47-48 degrees of hardness. As a medium-hard. Gum stinks a lot ... Interesting goods, but far from really soft Japanese-German productions, which offer much better control and rotation. Apr 15, 2021 | |||||||||||||||||||
