Hi, I read this thread before I got VP2 in 35 and 37 for BH. Thank’s for everybody’s input. It helps a lot! My 37 was really good, 1 thin FTL layer. Normally play G-1 and they are not that far apart. Good grip and arc. VP2 is slower but makes it up in control. I’m only intermediate but quite...

Hi! I just received a red prov 37, but man…still just 1 euro degree below my black 40,5 and plays like it, too. Could it be they only have two sponges? Have played 6 months with H3N 39 commercial on FH. For me, Rxton9 39 is close to H3N and TG2N in spin, slightly bouncier and faster in low...

I ordered a 38. Blue Loxa III sponge. 2,1 mm with seemingly the same pre glue layer as the black national. 67,1 g with the glue layer and foil. 61,5 without. 45 g cut. The black 40,5 was 50 g cut. Hardness: about 1 euro degree softer than the 40,5. So definetly harder than 38. Finger press test...

Hi! I know the tread is getting old. I just want to mention that last month I saw red versions of different hardnesses that looked legit at BEO store/Aliexpress. Plays like my black ones, so I guess it’s the real deal. Stay loose!

Hi, I’m intermediate and quite reckless but see similarities, and your complex question intrigues me. The Yinhe 14 pro is fast, but Mercury 2 are on the slower side. All good gear. It sounds like a good setup for what you want. Playing with pre-made bats before could have required a more open...

Hi, Max66 and others who might wonder the same, Here are the weights of my rubbers in max thickness, uncut with no glue/cut with 2 thin glue layers (glue weight 1–1,3 grams): Z2 Special: 66,6/46,4 G1: 68,2/49,7 The blade is Sanwei V5 pro (medium/small size). Stay loose!

Good idea to enter bounciness as a rubber parameter! To me, it is as relevant as speed, spin, control and tackiness. Stay loose!

Hi, I’ve tried several rubbers lately in what seems to be a similar search, so I’d like to share my impressions. Sanwei Target special soft (37 deg, white package): It (because of the sponge) had no or very little catapult and was too slow for my offensive play. Very good spin and control...

I’ve had two sheets of H3N 37 commercial on a smallish blade (Sanwei v5 pro). Normal blade adds about 1 gram per rubber. Mine were 45 and 47 g. Not boosted but including glue. The 45 g sheet was 79 g with complete packaging. Might come in handy if you have the option to choose in a store or ask...

Hi, I just tried Target soft (white package). Could be what andfadevarga assembled in October. It’s 51 grams on a smallish blade (Sanwei V5 pro), quite a lot for a soft sponge. Tacky and lots of spin, although a step below Hurricanes and Skylines. No catapult and very slow in short game. It...

Edit: I mixed up the weight of my Reactor rubber. It is 43 grams.

Ö Since Joola discontinued a couple of my BH rubbers (grrr!), I’ve been scouting for new ones and love Rozena. I’d keep it on BH and put TG2 Neo or something livelier like Bloom Power on FH. But that’s me. Since you want to change both sides, here are my 5 cents. I haven’t played D09C because...
