  1. Help - Rubbers for Xiom Hayabusa ZL Pro

    I also follow TTGearLab and I think they are great, best out there for in-depth info, but also go very "by the book" sometimes. I guess they are stating that the Hayabusa is faster because the primary elasticity index for the Hayabusa is 1.67 and for the Hugo HAL it's 1.62, so since EP is...
  2. Help - Rubbers for Xiom Hayabusa ZL Pro

    I think they are similar blades, the first thing I noticed when switching is that Hayabusa felt more like my previous wooden blades, where Hugo felt more artificial and kind of hollow feeling, but after some time you don't really notice it to be honest. In terms of dwell, both are good, but...

    I think it's a great blade, specially at its price point. My blade path was YSE -> SK7 -> Hayabusa ZL PRO and recently I upgraded to Hugo HAL. But honestly I think price/performance the Hayabusa ZL Pro is better than Hugo HAL. Fastarc C1 on the backhand with Hayabusa ZL Pro wasn't "more spinny"...

    How hard is that rubber compared to G1?
  7. Help - Rubbers for Xiom Hayabusa ZL Pro

    Hey everyone, I want to change the rubbers on my Hayabusa ZL Pro but I'm having a hard time understanding what to choose, I'll give some context. I've been training for 3 years with coaching, this year I joined a club and started playing my local league, I would consider myself an advanced...
