Review of Andro RasantI use the max thickness on both sides. I find that the red side used as a backhand rubber is very good. However, the black side used as a forehand rubber is hard to control, I have to hit the ball at the right angle with no more than medium power or the ball will go off the table, so it's unforgiving. I use this rubber on a Stiga Hybrid NCT blade, which is a hard and heavy.May 21, 2015 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Andro Rasanter R53I have this in 2.0 thickness. It is good for looping. It is good for flat hitting. Underspin pushes are good and controllable. Service spins are OK. I am using an off ++ balsa and carbon blade. I am using the red sheet on the back hand and the black sheet on the forehand.Jun 02, 2024 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 05I bought this rubber and after 3 sessions, it lost most of it's spin. Also the the topsheet is stiffer the usual. I paid $71.00 per sheet. I won't go back to this rubber.Aug 11, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Cornilleau Target Pro GT-H47

Review of Cornilleau Target Pro GT-H47This max thickness rubber is too fast for a fast carbon blade. It has to pair with medium speed blade. Throw angle is high. Spin is good. Control is fair, use it in 2.0 thickness for better control. The weight of this rubber (max thickness) is 50 g when cut to 157mm x 150mm.May 13, 2024 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Donic Acuda S2Warning donic has changed the formula. This rubber was once very good but now it loses its grip after 2 weeks at 6 hours of playing per week. Very poor spin durability. What a shame. And I do clean the rubber after use. I use a good rubber cleaner.May 16, 2017 | |||

Donic Bluestorm Z3

||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Donic Bluestorm Z3This rubber has little spin. I bought this rubber new. The first day I played with it, the spin was less than average. Then I cleaned the rubber. On the second day, the spin was even less. The speed is good. It is difficult to play a spin game with this rubber. The rubber does not feel soft, as advertised, it feels medium hard. I will not recommend this rubber to anyone. Sorry Donic, but you messed up big time. And I lost my money.Feb 13, 2018 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Donic BaracudaI bought this rubber twice. The first time was 4 months ago, it was very spinny. The second set was bought 2 weeks ago and the rubber had little spin and the topsheet felt firmer. Disappointing.Mar 14, 2018 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Gewo Nexxus EL Pro 48The first 2 days the rubber was medium hardness with good spin. The 3rd day the rubber got very firm, I could'nt get the ball to sink into the topsheet, the spin was less. Looping underspin became more difficult. The rubber is fast. On the 4th day, I cleaned the rubber and it got back spinny. It takes time to learn how to play with this rubber.Aug 31, 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||||

JOOLA Rhyzer 48
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of JOOLA Rhyzer 48I had the red 2.0 rubber on my bh side. It was not linear. I didn't like it. On the fh side i had the black 2.0. It was good for flat hits but not for loops. Underspin pushes were good. After a few days much of the spin was lost. My blade was a fast carbon blade, yinhe t11s. The rubber is too firm, no dwell time.May 27, 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Nittaku Renanos Hold
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Nittaku Renanos HoldSpeed is average. This sponge is hard and topsheet is firm, the ball does not sink into the topsheet, topsheet has little grip, throw angle is medium low, so this rubber is good for flat hits and not good for looping. Also for short underspin rallies, it is very hard to get any spin and the opponent can easily attack these balls. Response is linear.Mar 06, 2019 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Stiga (2)

Stiga Boost TX
|
||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Stiga Boost TXI bought this because I thought the sponge was medium, but it's medium-hard or maybe a little firmer. The throw is very low, so it's a struggle to loop with it. It is fast. Spin is not good for low power shots, because the ball can't sink into the rubber. This rubber has too little spin associated with my effort. It's hard to get the ball to travel in an arc, like you can get with, say tenergy 05. You have to re-adjust all your paddle angles. Also, this rubber has speed and spin qualities just like DHS NEO SKYLINE TG 2. However, it is fair to say that I played with this rubber for only one day. I may post an update as I play more with this rubber.Aug 09, 2015 | |||||||||||||||||||||

Tibhar Evolution MX-P
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Tibhar Evolution MX-PThis is a hard and fast rubber with a grippy topsheet. I am coming from xiom vega europe. This rubber is faster but much less predictable. This is my first day with it and i didn't do well. I will have to try to understand its weird reaction. This rubber is very heavy, more heavy than I expected. I will post more later. Update this is my second day of playing with this rubber. I am playing against a robot and i am learning different angles and stroke force. I still find the rubber is hard to control and is unpredictable. Third day of playing with this rubber, and the rubber is just difficult to understand as the plastic ball bounces of the rubber at weird angles. The old celluloid ball plays better with this rubber. Also, I notice that the rubber has lost a significant amount of spin. I lost my money on this one. I will remove this rubber and go back to xiom vega europe which is very predictable and controllable. At this point I do not even want to take a chance on another tibhar model rubber. UPDATE - After a few days of play, the factory applied booster has worn away, the rubber now plays predictable and natural, no more weirdness. The rubber feels medium soft, it is fast like tenergy 05 but softer and more controllable. But unfortunately, after 1 hour of play all the spin capability of the rubber was lost. Then I cleaned the rubber and the spin came back.Aug 14, 2017 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

TSP Ventus Spin
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of TSP Ventus SpinI always clean my rubber after a practice. This rubber is rated as soft, but after the first 2 days, it becomes medium. Speed is good, spin is good. I like this rubber very much and would recommend it to any level of player. It is good for both back hand and forehand. Great for looping. Update after 3 weeks, the rubber has lost much of it's spin. Sucks !!Jul 31, 2018 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Victas V > 22 Double Extra
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Victas V > 22 Double ExtraI bought the red and black rubbers in 2.0mm They were not spinny. I am disappointed. I have buyfrom other brands in future. Jan 22, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Victas V > 01 Limber
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Victas V > 01 LimberYasaka mark v has a speed rating of 8. This rubber is slower, so i rate this a 7.5 for speed. Spin is good. I put max rubber on both sides on a butterfly viscaria blade. The blocking is excellent. Forehand flat hits are excellent. The backhand is slow. Next time I will put a faster rubber on the backhand eg. Victas v22 extra. Underspin pushes are good. Service and serve receive are both good. The rubber when cut to 157 x 150 mm weighs 45 g, so it is light. This rubber feels medium hard.Jul 09, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Xiom Omega IV Euro
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Xiom Omega IV EuroThis rubber is of average speed and spin, but the paddle speed is increased if the rubber is placed on a fast blade. The topsheet is soft and I like how the ball easily sinks into the topsheet. If you want to play players above 1600 you must put it on a fast carbon blade. By fast I mean 96 to 99 out of a 100. Topspin is good but blocks are very good and the ball keeps low. Underspin pushes are very good and controllable. Once you get used to this rubber, it's good. I like this rubber and will recommend it to any allround player, however players above 2000 may need a faster rubber. This rubber has a very linear response and that's great, it's far more linear than tensors, so control is very good. Looping is good. Back hand flicks is good and easy. Serves are spiny. Update 3 weeks later, the topsheet has become less flexibleand therefore has become faster and blocking is less easy, but I still like this rubber, it is so linear. Some dwell time is lost. I always use a rubber cleaner after playing to bring back the spin lost beacause of dust and sweat. Update, after 3 months, the rubber has lost some of it's grip in the middle of the sheet. The rubber is now firmer than before. I put away this rubber for 3 weeks, then i played with it, and it's topsheet returned to being soft.. I love this rubber. Great on forehand and backhand. This rubber is light weight. UPDATE- I got my 2nd pair of these rubbers, and they are different from the first set. They are now heavier and the sponge is harder. It is less spiny and less durable. I do not like how the manufacturer has changed the nature of the rubber. Aug 03, 2017 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Xiom Omega V Euro
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Xiom Omega V EuroI am very disappointed with this rubber, brand new out of it's package and on the first day of play, the top sheet is stiff, the sponge is firm, no dwell time. Speed is medium, spin medium but nothing special. The manufacturer says it has dynamic friction technology, but still the grip is nothing special, it's average. The omega 4 europe is a far better rubber.Dec 06, 2016 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Xiom Sigma 1 Euro
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Xiom Sigma 1 EuroThe top sheet is grippy only when playing mid or far from table. Because the sponge feels hard the ball does not sink into the topsheet in the short game so you cannot topspin an underspin. There is no grip in the short game.May 03, 2017 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
Yasaka (2)

Yasaka Mark V HPS
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Yasaka Mark V HPSThis rubber is very sensitive to dust since dust causes it to loose it's spin rapidly. If you wash the rubber with soap and water ( remember to wash out all the soap) the grip will return. I need to wash the rubber after every 2 sets. When the rubber is clean you can do everything with it, providing you have the skill. The rubber feels light.Aug 05, 2015 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Yasaka Rakza 7 Soft
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Yasaka Rakza 7 SoftThe rubber was soft and spiny the first time I played with it. The second time I played with it, the rubber got firmer and the spin was still there. The third time I played with it, the rubber had lost most of it's spin. So I bought another rakza 7 soft to see if the first set was from a bad lot. Unfortunately the second set was just as bad as the first. Yasaka robbed me.Jun 06, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
