Review of .TCORE Master X€64 a sheet is expensive, this rubber is quite good non the less. HRT is a asian company. Non tacky hard rubber with good spin when hit. Brushing the ball makes a high arc with amazing spin. If brush can't stay near table.. will go over. Ball clears net easily and wont slip off. Too expensive for what you get. Simular to Joola rhyzm 50 pro

Review of Butterfly Tackiness DriveI played a bit with it and against it. This gives a diffirent type of spin then t05, lower throw with the same amount of spin. Serves and short game are better. Countering is too diffirent to compare. The only Butterfly rubber i saw on sale lol

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 05T05 is €60 a sheet, Very good in open play with any type of blade. High arc, bouncy and it is quite nice. Struggles in short game compared to chinese style rubbers. Hammond z2 is in my opinion a equal for €40 a sheet

Review of Butterfly SriverI used a older sheet, Not very spinny and quite doll. Lovely for active blocking heavy topspin. You can make ur opponent quite angry when you show him all the corners of the table.

Review of Butterfly Sriver FXToo dull for any propper form topspin. Very spin insensitive, only nice thing i found is the chop block. It removes the pace like long pips. 5/10 not very good I.M.P

Review of DHS NEO Hurricane 3This review is for the new formula Hurricane. I use Timo boll ALC with 39 unboosted and boosted. And 40 degree boosted. I'd say the harder you go with hurricane, the better you need with footwork. It has a lick more spin than D09c, and more control. The throw angle is medium and feels very natural. I never had to focus on the arc. Speed is enough for blocks and passive play, but it doesn't shine in that aspect. This rubber is so popular that you just need to spend €20 on a sheet to try out. I think playing unboosted is fine, but a softer sponge is recommended; the hardness of 39 or 38 is better than 40. When boosted commercial hurricane.
The difference between 39 and 40 degree boosted is huge. 39 has more speed on slower spin shots. 40 degree has more spin and power on harder impact balls and counters. The second bounce of these rubbers is extreme, When compared to something like Tenergy 05 you create a faster, lower and spinnier shot. For active play DHS hurricane is almost unbeatable. So much control and spin is hard to pass up. Never had national version to compare, i compare to D09c, T05, Hurricane 2 neo. Hurricane 3 lasts insanely long. Never had problems with new badges or durability.

Review of Donic Acuda S1This rubber doesn't feel like a top end rubber, it has a similar feeling of t05 with that bouncy trampoline effect. This rubber can make spinny shots and has good control. Especially when blocking heavy spin. soft feeling with high throw, good for intermediate all+ off-

Review of Donic Bluestorm Z2Equal spin to t05 in high end shots. Not very powerfull rubber. Very spin insensitive after 2 months. "new" feeling gone after month. Medium hardness but feel's soft (39 degree feel). I used it on my forehand. I use 50 degree now. much better, More stable

Review of Donic LigaSuper safe rubber, so much control. when looping backhand medium power it doesn't bottom out. Spin is 7.5 because it gives spin, just not the killer amount for us advanced players. 100% beginner rubber for a ok price.

Donic BlueGrip C1
|
Review of Donic BlueGrip C1I play with Hurricane 3 neo both sides, I am a offensive win the point fast type of player that is stable on both sides. This rubber allows for better serves then Hurricane, Only the pure backspin short serve is worse. Overall this is a bit quicker and gives slightly less spin in countering. It doesn't need to be boosted but after 1.5 months the factory tuning is done and it'll feel a complete diffirent rubber. You can boost it back up with a thin layer of booster. The grip is slightly tacky, and it doesn't wear as quickly off like Rakza Z.

Review of Friendship/729 Super FX Blue Spongebetter then normal version once you boost it, Is a lot more powerful and spinny. Slightly more catapult effect. Accually a decent pick for a vacation training bat.

Review of JOOLA RhyzmEdit: I'll now compare it to Tenergy 05.
On low power topspin Tenergy feels great. It has better grip and spin then Rhyzm. If you used Tenergy you know how satisfying they feel. On medium power loops i don't find Rhyzm much worse really, It has better arc and is less spin sensitive. T05 has more punch and spin if done propperly.
Full power, Both have good and bad parts. I felt that T05 is more bouncy and speedy, which makes it more effective and loaded with spin. This does come at the cost of less control. Rhyzm has less speed and spin for sure, but man that control feels nice.
Serves this rubber still grips, just not that bite like t05. The Rhyzm has a few good qualities, The only thing i felt lacking is in serves, I have played many rubbers 20+ and this one is just avarage, not d09c, LAC or Hurricane. Just avarage

Review of JOOLA Topspin Ca classic defensive rubber, It is medium tacky and has a medium sponge. You can do offensive strokes but you need to have good weight transfer because this rubber is quite slow. It has a very consistent bounce on every shot. This makes chopping from behind the table wonderful. Medium tacky makes this rubber super spinny in serves, Hurricane 3 prov performance in this department. It is also very light for the medium sponge. Pair it with classic long pips and make the opponent that thinks "ah a chopper, free rating" into "long pips are cheating"
I am by no means a expert at defending, i am pure offense that enjoys playing from time to time with pips lol

Review of JOOLA X-PlodeI borrowed this blade for a 3 hour session, It feels quite soft. It has a lot of dwell and you can make nice shots. Spin is there, Not deadly but it is there. It has high throw and is only slightly sensitive to incoming spin. Pretty low weight awel! a decent rubber found around €30, Pretty good overall!

Review of JOOLA Rhyzer Pro 50After using this rubber a long time, i wanted to review it. The speed is around the same as a boosted Hurricane 3, When you play active it is fast! But passive blocking is hell. Out of position is unforgiving, it doesn't give much. This rubber is terrible at countering far from the table, no grip and no spin. So why do i like this rubber coming from hurricane? The mighty flat hit. No other rubber controls spin this well close to the table, it just is stupid how easy you can actively flat hit. Spin on open ups is okay, arc is very low and ball falls into net often. Spin on serves is as good as any Non-tacky rubber. Service service is a beast. I use this on forehand side, i find backhand side amazing. Better suited for backhand. But is 54 gram, kind of heavy.

Review of Nittaku Hammond Z2Basicly, Speed of a Mxp with spin of Tenergy. Well it is more complicated then that, Let's talk about it.
So i have this rubber for 5 months (1 season) Time for a new one usually. Well no, the factory tuning is gone and due to that the topsheet shrinked a bit. It still plays like after 1 month, So good durability! It feels like a bouncy 50 degree rubber, not very comparable to other rubbers i.m.o. Yeah it is fast! i played 2.0 and it very quick, it still has splenty of dwell. Also the throw angle is quick and arc is long. I find this good for mid distance only, I really do struggle when attacking against topspin close to the table. Really have to close your blades angle down. Serves are good, 8/10 compared to Hurricane 3 national :)
I like this rubber, i'll try something new when this dies.

Review of Reactor Tornado V5The cheap rubber market is flooded with alright beginner rubbers. This rubber is better then yinhe 9000, mercury or t800 spin. I would say this is similar to Joola rhyzm in many aspects. Hardness feels medium (47.5) Bouncy and grippy. This does last longer and has better grip. I would never use this for Forehand, Backhand this is accually usable for amateurs :)

Review of Sanwei AU GoldenSaw it on Aliexpress for €7 and bought it with Hurricane 3 bs.
This rubber says it isn't tacky, but it still lifts the ball up unlike other grip type rubbers.
It doesn't feel tacky at all, same or better grip as DNA rubbers.
Quite a dull feeling, it isn't bouncy like Rakza 7 soft. Speed is slightly slow, but you can
excellerate pretty well after the third ball.
It doesn't bottom out as fast as most 42d rubbers, it has slightly more support during blocking.
Counters aren't good on backhand, it just isn't hard enough. It gives a good balance between offensive and blocks. Openups are very good, not super powerfull but enough to make the opponent block out.
Tensor grip like rubber, that has nice spin for amateurs.
For me not very suitable for forehand, as it is far to unstable. Backhand i found best use in flips and blocking fast topspins.
Speed: 7
Spin: 8
Control: 9 (subjective)

Stiga DNA Pro M
|
Review of Stiga DNA Pro MI used many many rubbers, I was a EJ junkie trying so many saying "this is the best". But after testing so much blades and rubbers, I came back to this. Now I'm using Carbonado 45, Dignics 09c fh and Dna pro m 2.1 bh. Now I'm using this combo for a year already and feeling no need to use anything else. I have enough spin and speed to kill any ball with my technique.
I'm trying to break into top 200 of my country, with the current improvement growth that is bound to happen.
Really happy with this all around attacking rubber.

Stiga DNA Pro H
|
Review of Stiga DNA Pro HI switched from DHS Hurricane 3, i wanted to get some ease of use in my forehand. DNA pro H is all i need in a rubber, It has great grip. Only Dignics has comparable grip. The speed and Spin are 95% of Tenergy 80, It just has a lot less catapult which makes this easy to control. Blocking and punch shots are nice, but the focus is on spin. Service is okay at best, it doesn't give as much spin as Hurricane. Serving short is still easy but you can't go through the rubber to get spin like H3.
DNA Platinum H is faster and more lively, but i prefer deader feeling on forehand. DNA pro H is great.

Review of Three Sword Regal ChallengeUpdate: I used a glue that slightly boosted this rubber, This feels like a standard 47.5/50 degree rubber now. Throw angle is lower the normal, when using brushing it isn't as powerfull as expensive equipment. Serves arent spinny, Best thing about this rubber is how easy you can place the ball on table.

Review of Tibhar Aurus SoundThis is a soft sponge with a medium soft topsheet, Great for reverse pendulum serve and first opening against bs. This is a bh rubber with a lot of alright characteristics. Not a lot of spin and quality in shots. Rubber has average durability. I recoment Joola Rhyzm series if you want to get better at tt for a cheaper price (€25 a sheet)

Review of Xiom Omega IV EuroVery fast rubber, you can still feel dwell. Is spinny rubber when brushing.When hit need to brush for clearance over net. Serves are spinny. Hard to serve short with lots of backspin only. Flicks are hard to preform. Good for countering with good technical users. Very fast!

Review of Yinhe 9000DI like this rubber, on bh you can get quality shots. Only problem is the lack of spin. Is 20/30% less then high quality rubbers. This makes a huge difference. Medium throw, Maybe a H3-50 clone?

Yinhe Jupiter 3 Asia
|
Review of Yinhe Jupiter 3 AsiaUsed: 37d red unboosted on backhand side on yinhe v14pro.
First impression: the arc is very straight, Not easy to get a high arc over the net. Countering near the table is effective as it gives the opponent no reaction time. (you feel like Fzd) This is the most tacky rubber out of the box, The ball stayed on the blade for almost a minute. After a few training sessions the rubber had amazing grip and felt slightly easier to use. Overall a good rubber for Forehand, backhand you need to be at the table at all times.

Yinhe Moon 12
|
Review of Yinhe Moon 12I bought High hardness, i feel that this is 48 degree rubber, slightly softer than Dignics 05.
I'll compare this to Butterfly Rozena, i think this is the best comparison because both have around the same characteristics.
I tested on 7 ply off+ blade, both rubbers only backhand.
This rubber has a lot of grip, very similar grip to new sheet of rozena. The speed is in between Bluestorm and Rozena, spin is around the same as Rozena. This rubber felt a bit more spin sensitive, which i like. Blocking is very easy. When opening up against backspin i felt i had enough time on the ball to make a quality shot. The arc is in between T05 and Rozena, it is decent high throw. Serves are decent for Tensor based rubbers. Not good compared to hurricane or D09C. Flicks are easy and safe, speed and spin are above avarage for €40 rubber. I used for 10 hours and feels slightly slower when new. This rubber is factory boosted i believe, so 15% less speed after 2 weeks. Overall i believe this rubber is decent. Softer versions might be worse, maybe awkward throw. If only they had a red version. The blue topsheet stains balls.
