Why are you looking for this? Just wondering. Because originally you were looking for H3 which is hard and Razka 7 which is fairly hard.

On backhand a medium hard rubber is what i prefer.
on fh i prefer soft rubbers that are tacky. I used to use mark v(quite decent amount amount of tackiness).
i want to combine tackiness with tensor +have what i like on my fh(soft rubber)
(this is my quest for the perfect forehand rubber
)

This post is actually very interesting, experimenting with rubbers is one of my favourite things

If you like the soft sponges only for the good dwelltime you might want to consider the Donic Baracuda. The surface is tacky and produces a lot of spin easily, has a rsther high arc and can accelerate a lot on topspins played with a maximum closed angle (surface of the rubber parallel to the table surface).
You need good technique to use it well though since the high arc makes it easy to miss strokes that have a lot of force behind them.

I believe there is a reason why such a rubber is hard to find. The combination simply does not work. Once I have a Chinese rubber (Sword King) which is very tacky, soft and bouncy. At first glance it seems like a good idea but turns out the worst in play. The bounciness makes short game suffer with little control and bounce long. When hitting hard the soft sponge start bottoming and the tacky topsheet just cut off half of my power. No matter how hard I strike, the power is like going into thin air and not the ball. Now I understand why Chinese tacky topsheet needs the support of harder sponge to get the kick. I have bought another sheet of Sword King and it is much harder, less tacky, less bouncy and play nothing like the one before.

Didn't see this before.
Tune the daylights outta a Palio Blitz to soften up the sponge and call it a day.

Man, who's been the necromancer trying to resurrect this old thread?
Don't get me wrong. Some threads are definitely worth reviving, but i think this isn't one of those.
I think you've been mixing up grippiness with tackiness.
Rakza can't lift a ball.
To be more precise: it's N O T a tensor!
but you're right, the 's' version could be an option.
One could also try the Nittaku H3 (non-neo) with orange package, sticky topsheet and white sponge.
Another option could be Juic 999 which uses the 999 topsheet combined with a soft japanese sponge or slightly harder but still rather soft, the Juic 'Spin Spiel'.
