Loki Arthur Europe

I tried this as a backhand rubber, but it sort of lacks the rebound of a good BH rubber. It's not slow, its medium-fast speed, but it sort of lacks the rebound/bounciness of a good BH rubber. AK47, and even Loki's own T3 feel better to me. Slightly tacky that goes completely away after a while. Also it is quite heavy, but lighter than Arthur Asia.

Updated !!! Facts: black rubber in max., in original packaging 93 g., uncut with foil 70 g., 48 g. (on 157 x 150 mm) ... stated with 40 degrees sponge hardness. I have been testing this rubber on various woods for two weeks now. The stickiness of the Europe is roughly equivalent to that of a hybrid rubber. At first it seems very slow, but this is not confirmed in play. When the ball hits it, an unusual, rather dull sound is produced. (... especially in comparison to the China!) This gave me the impression that the Europe is softer than the China, but this was later not confirmed. Since I have had a shore meter for a long time, I checked the sponge hardness and lo and behold, with the "Europa" I could only measure 39 degrees (Chinese scale)! (... instead of the 40 degrees according to the manufacturer.) - so 50 degrees at international level. Conclusion: interesting, very inexpensive rubber! ... easy to control, with above-average spin. Its speed leaves something to be desired, so it is more suitable for very fast blades or on the backhand side. - certainly also excellent for tuning! Addendum: even if this rubber is sold with the name "Europa", it is more of a typical "China rubber" with less stickiness!!!

Pretty damn good medium rubber. (the sponge is medium hard but the topsheet is medium because the inverted pimples break easy so the ball grips nicely). Highly reccomend for backhand, for easy flip opening, active and passive blocks like a charm. It is not as springy as the Diamond version but you dont have to engage the sponge as much as with the Diamond to get spin because this one is more grippy. Due to medium soft topsheet you don't get a lot of spin sensitivity. Would not reccomend for forehand when you like driving from mid to far distance. It lacks the grip for those hard drives (RXTON 5 works way better for me here)

Just got this to try. lm looking for inexpensive tenson rubber. This rubber did everything good i was happy with the feel ,touch. I am happy with how it pushes ,blocks, counters ,and hits, but when looping i had great spin and control just felt i was not getting as much pop or speed on loops. I did play well with it i have no real complaints. I would say if u are looking for spinny good control rubber this will do. I should add I have not played much in the last few yrs. So my loop could off been off time and I am useing an old allaround blade. That was good befor all the ball change so if I was useing an off- or faster blade I'm sure I would of found some pop

I tested this one in Max on forehand on a Yinhe V-14 PRO ALC blade. Weight uncut/cut: 75/55g. So it's quite heavy. As usual, I'm comparing mostly to DHS H3N 41deg. Out of the package it is very tacky, but after a couple of cleanings the tack wears off a bit. But still tacky. It's a bit hard to grip where this rubber has its advantages compared to H3N. I guess it has to be broken in, but I feel that there is quite good speed when I hit hard enough to engage the sponge. Short game is really good, and good spin in serves as well. This is no rubber for slow lifting loops. Hard hits and heavy loops is what makes this rubber excel. Feels like a very interesting rubber, and I will continue to use this one a bit more...
