New Genextion V2C (Hybrid) from Nittaku

[tzifos]

There is a new rubber coming soon from Nittaku that will share the same sponge as Genextion rubber but it will be "sticky", Its name is Genextion V2C, made in Germany from ESN.

Curious about this too

 

[TensorBackhand]

Cool. So its K3 or ZGX?

 

[jk1980]

The Genextion was quite easy to activate, but not as controlled in the short game(compared to the K3), so this will be a very interesting rubber.

Any news on when this rubber will be released?

topsheet looks quite thick, so better for short play and not as bouncy? good control, too?

If it will be harder Version of sieger pk50. I will sell everything and didnt try anything

 

[laowa]

Released in Japan! Think wil be only available in tt11 around June?

 

[andzejgolot]

Its in Europe, someone tried IT?

 

[jk1980]

Yes, it is not really sticky. Similar to Vega Pro H and the like.
On top of it there is no dampening effect in the short game. Nearly as bouncy as the regular genextion. I was very disappointed. Already removed it from my blade.

You try Gewo Codexx 54?

I agree with this, was expecting a hybrid but got a bouncy tensor instead. Was very disappointed.

I'm so sad reading this, I was eager to try this rubber 🥲. I've read that Genextion had a long breaking point, maybe V2C is the same and needs some time?

I ordered 1 from Nittaku Germany. I expect it to be a similair concept to the Andro NUZN rubbers, which is slightly tacky, but not sticky.

Coming from G-1 I think I wouldnt mind it behaving more like a tensor. once I have my hands on it I could make a comparison to G-1 if anyone is interested.

Curious to know how it compares with the original genextion
