  1. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    Ah nice man! Fantastic stuff, those 2 are such great rubbers, when people want power but with control, the Rakza Z and the 8-80 are always in my top 3 FH/BH combos! Very happy you are enjoying the setup and that your wallet is suffering less now ;) Remember when you wanna get new rubbers you...

    Yes same here @Marvinn8686 , Rakza Z is decent tackiness, I like it. 8-80 also

    Mine was 40 too @TTpastor and @Archosaurus
  4. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    Yep it's true, my provs are good tacky in today's standards, not tacky when compared to 2010 for example. It's a tensor with linearity indeed, it has some hybridness to it but what I categorise as hybrid tensors, but if you call it a linear tensor, it's also valid, in the end the result is the...
  5. GEWO Iconixx 55 & 50 Review: Durability Issues Undermine a Promising Rakza Z EH Alternative and Softer Rakza Z Option

    In that case all good, fresh they are very nice. Enjoy and check the topsheet from time to time, so you always have the best performance :)
  6. GEWO Iconixx 55 & 50 Review: Durability Issues Undermine a Promising Rakza Z EH Alternative and Softer Rakza Z Option

    Yes it is a good rubber as I mentioned in the blog but if it only lasts 1-2 months then that has to be said as well, unless you are a sponsored player or dont care about costs, then it is something to take into account. And to add to this, I found it a great set of rubbers and then recommended...
  7. Stiga Helix Hybrid XH and DNA Hybrid H Review: New Generation vs Old Generation Hybrids

    Yeah good to do a retest if you want or can! You ll probably experience it different then :)
  8. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    Worth a try for that price, thats for sure :)
  9. Step up from the fastarc G1

    Yeah Id say Dignics or Nuzn could be good choices, also durability is better than the tenergies :D
  10. Stiga Helix Hybrid XH and DNA Hybrid H Review: New Generation vs Old Generation Hybrids

    Thanks @jkugin ! Yes for the Helix Hybrid, if Rakza Z feels fast in serves and you struggle to keep it short and low, then Helix Hybrid will make things worse in my experience, and the DNA Hybrid will be better but you need to brush it very thinly, but do remember that the DNA hybrid is not...

    Maybe LAC too much for him @Haito ? Unboosted though could work... 🤔 Rxton 5 Id say too slow, unboosted is slooooow, but maybe Rxton 7 yes, I have not tried it :D Will need to!
  12. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    Feels like you are describing a linear hybrid on its own thijs, MK really or G09c or even asia jupiter 3, those 3 all fit what you describe, mk more tensor and easier to activate, g09c more high end explosion and less bounce initially and jupiter asia tackier and more demanding, but still very good!
  13. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    ESN is ESN, if you love it people always play it and cannot play chinese or hybrids haha but if you prefer no ESN (like me mostly) because you learnt with the other side of the coin, then it's fine too, both can work, but technique and blade are different, I prefer tacky like you @Haito but when...
  14. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    Yeah those work, both G09c and MK feel different but they both work, you may wanna try what fits best for you when it comes to gear taste and stroke mechanics :) MK is as you say, just safe, same-ish G09c, but since you asked for safe I thought of those first hehe Yeah I'm ok with Rakza 7 but...
  15. What Are Hybrid Table Tennis Rubbers and Why Are They So Popular Nowadays?

    Yeah agreed, and yeah, maybe S1 can work too, is not a bad rubber, same durability as MK i feel. Yes agreed, same here! I ll review the G1/C1 combo next year, need to do a month of play properly instead of some hours here and there with different blades :)
