Experience with some other Loki rubbers - Arthur China, GTX Pro (inc)

[mattlamperouge]

2x 52,5° Teslon China
2x 47,5° Telson Germany
will be in my mail box soon.

I'm eager to test them. My forecast :
- Teslon China close to Codexx 52° that I liked a lot
- Telon Germany close to Teslon 100 but sticky. Teslon 100 is still my BH rubber since April

Both are only available in red for now, and with 2 hardness each :
- China : 52,5 & 55°
- Germay : 45 & 47,5°

When China is available in Black, I'll order in 55°.

Where did you order?
I will love to hear your review and comparison with Telson 100 since you used it for quite a while and not just for a quick test.
If you can, share photos of the packaging and rubber before pasting
Sunday i played around with a friend blade with Andro Nunz 55 and Loki AED. Must say i spected a harder rubber but both where similar feel and bounce, and close to my Telson 100 (quite old)
The Andro nunz was gifted almost new from a ex-pro so maybe some boost was involved.

Lets see if Telson 100 China feels more like a "true" hybrid and tackiness is there. (Nunz 55 not that much tack, not even close to my LAC 🤷)

That's strange. Why is China only available in red? I thought this was supposed to be a forehand rubber

Anyone else tried LAC pro?

I finally found some to check it out. While i still cant tell anything about its longevity (need some more weeks for that and see if the topsheet falls off the sponge), this one is definitly a bit faster than the normal lac.
Slight adjustments were needed but i finally am capable to play with it on around the same level.
The other characteristics are more or less the same. But if this one survives longer than the normal lac, it is definitly a really good improvement and a good choice imo.

I have one since 2024, same than regular LAC for me.

If you only ordered 4 rubbers, how much did the shipping cost?

I gotta get the Jiechi! I tried to order Jiechi last time but the seller was out of stock, so he gave me FLM purple instead

are you going to test Telson China for FH or BH?
been eyeing V15 sticky for a while now for BH, and since Telson China has 52,5 degree, I'm really looking forward to the impression on the rubber.

Backhand only. My forehand will be Target National 3 BS, my last tests were awesome.

Loki factory running wild. Rxton 3 in green and purple, all sorts of new Rxton 5. Now we must rely on the forum members more than ever to get the good advice on what to get.

Bought the China version 52,5 on early bird from aliexpress
because I still miss sieger pk50 🫨
I saw 57,5 version too but i had only 1 sheet on order.
Bought rxton 5 top too

 

[Grumms]

There's no 57.5° version according to my agent. It's 52.5 or 55°.
