Spin Energy based on power dragging
SPIN DRAGGING is a necessary factor to create a successful probability for both high trajectory and high control when hitting. With general rubber manufacturing technology, the stronger the repulsive energy, the less time the ball stays on the rubber surface, but the new generation "V" rubber has realized a new paradigm that enables sufficient ball drag while delivering high energy.
Available in Red, Black, and Pink.
Available only in Max thickness.
Speed: 8.5

About Xiom's New Jekyll & Hyde Rubbers
The important performance criteria, speed and control, speed and spin per distance, have conflicting characteristics just like "Jekyll & Hyde" of processing. It is known it is practically impossible for each criterion to show higher integration performance than a certain level at the same time. Jekyll & Hyde has reached the highest value at the same time, focusing on deep learning and cycloids, the best rubber development technology.
Like frozen ice and blazing fire, we made various elements inside the rubber that were powerful but couldn't be with each other the best value at the same time. New research efforts for the future have led to unexpected and surprising results and have confidently introduced Jekyll & Hyde.

Xiom Jekyll & Hyde V47.5
This rubbers gets worn out veryyyyyy fast, after 1 month of using it for 6 hours a week its lost all the grip and it was very hard to open game, like most xiom rubbers a very good rubber but wears out very easily, it absorbs all the humidity by the way, dont recommend it unless you got the money to buy a new fh or bh rubber every month

2.1mm BH on Yasaka Ma Lin Carbon. Pro: Looping and smashing is great. Con: The rubber is heavy and sensitive to spin.

I stuck this on a Yinhe T11's blade and instantly liked it but after 2 months of using it I found that my technique of hitting through the ball more than brushing the ball made me hit the ball to long when I had not got enough time to return the ball in the middle of a fast rally. It’s a very nice rubber but it is not as spinny as I hoped and I have used many more rubbers that I can generate more spin than this.
If you want spin then the Andro Hexer SFX range is quite a bit more spinnyier than this and is easier on the wrist with being lighter.
I did enjoy using the XIOM Jekyll & Hyde V47.5 which gave me a great feel, touch and control but with me using it on my forehand I was not able to generate enough spin with my forehand serves which was disappointing for me. I did try it on my backhand but I much preferred the one I already use.
In summary spinnyish, medium Hvy, quick and consistent if you have the time to play the correct stroke, was good at both attack and defence but was not for me.
It's med Hvy and I will update this review once I find the weight's uncut and cut.

Amazing. The rubber is amazing, and it is surprising it has not caught on quicker on this premier comparison website!
In the move over recent years to firmer sponges that now provide the control that only softer ones have done in the past, Jekyll & Hyde is by far the best.
If you are a lover of the high throw (which I am not), Tenergy is very expensive but takes some beating. For all other attackers, J & H gives all the spin and power needed with your fast strokes, and unrivalled touch in the short game.
Better technique is always the answer to the touch game; but this rubber will bridge some of that gap in ability and is invaluable for that reason alone.
I have played all the major western-style offensive rubbers, majoring on Tibhar Evolution and the Xiom range. Jekyll & Hyde is a class apart.

Using V47.5 on the backhand side of my BFY Viscaria. I used xiom vega pro / vega x on my backhand before changing to this rubber. My initial impression after +/- 2 hours of testing, combination of v47.5 and viscaria results in pretty hard feeling. On active strokes this rubber feels pleasing, low-medium arc with good spin. Passive block will more likely dump the ball into the net, however when the sponge is engaged the ball flies with high speed. On serves, I feel i can't impart as much spin as when I used vega pro, probably because my serve technique is just grazing the ball with the topsheet, and in order to get the spin, sponge engagement is necessary. I may update after more hours of testing.
UPDATE: Around 10 hours of play, I confirm this rubber plays best for flat-hitting. This rubber is not really spin sensitive, which helps a lot when flat-hitting through the ball. Topspin is best generated with quick wrist action, making this rubber very suitable for backhand flick over the table. However backhand topspin opening away from table is quite challenging because the arc is low and long. I still can't generate satisfactory spin from my serve, so I won't really recommend this rubber for serving.
