I have this mounted on a Xiom AJH TMXI with Tibhar Evo MXS on the BH side. The Joola Golden Tango PS was the biggest surprise of the setup for me. It’s a very nice rubber. It’s not as tacky as it’s been advertised here. It’s lightly tacky and so far has maintained that tack. The rubber even without the tack I suspect would still be reasonably grippy. The throw is high. I wouldn’t say it’s T05 high but pretty darn high and a pretty safe rubber as far as easily clearing the net with good dive once it clears the net. Spin on serves is good. I wouldn’t say it’s T05 good but quite good. Im not a really strong flat hitter so I can’t really speak to how well it does this. It is an excellent looping rubber. I swing more of a Chinese style forehand. This rubber does everything well whether you are brush looping or loop driving. Pushes are good. It’s not a terribly bouncy rubber so the short game is pretty easy to have good touch. There’s really nothing bad to say about this rubber. It’s easier speed than Chinese rubber, but the swing mechanics are relatively the same. Swing more from shoulder with both rubbers but with Chinese rubbers it requires full effort to get anything out of them. This was my first time with a Joola rubber and I was quite pleased with it. It feels nice. It’s great performing and it’s a pretty good value. I totally will keep it on my bat for quite some time.

Very spinny rubber. Slow for a modern tensor which makes it very consistent easy to play. A bit harder than fastarc g1, which was my rubber before this. More spin but bit slower and a bit less control than fastarc g1.

Compared to Dignics 09C, a little bit softer, lighter, same spin, more control and half the price, it doesn't have the arc of Tenergy 19 but this may be the perfect fh rubber for a hinoki blade.

I never cared for Chinese rubbers because they were always too slow. Joola came out with this Chinese / European hybrid and I decided to give it a try. The topsheet is very tacky, and the throw angle is very high. It's slower than I was used to, but still much faster than the typical Chinese rubbers I've tried. I played with it on my BH and my loops were loaded with Topspin! After playing with it a while I decided to boost it to speed it up, so I used the boost sold by Zeropong and put 2 layers of boost on it. The first layer I let dry for about 14 hours. After that I put another layer on and let it dry for another 12-14 hours. The rubber curled up a little, but I had no problem putting it back on the blade. The boost definitely gave it the extra speed I wanted and I continued playing with it for several months. This rubber is very good, especially for the BH. Your serves, loops, and pushes will be loaded!
