I'm pretty sure the Rxton 3 Pink/Blue topsheet is non tacky, the tacky that you feel is just the slight stickiness from the plastic covering but I'm 100% sure it's non tacky.

Thanks for the feedback man, are you still using the Aurus Prime til now?

The Shang Kun AC is looking really nice. I guess I'll go for it with MX-P50 on the fh and aurus select on bh.

Keep me posted mate! :D

Even worn-out rubbers that look fine are a pain in the ass to play against. As they essentially work like "anti-spin" rubbers sometimes it does, sometimes it feels like an inverted. It's just so annoying to play against.

Anyone using Tibhar Aurus Prime in 2023? Curious how it performs and stacks up to current newer rubbers. I plan on using it on a Viscaria type blade.

Interesting

OMG this is so trueeeee. I have the K1000 hobby bats, those have Rxton V, Rxton 1 and Rxton 3 and play nothing like the originals. They're a bunch of BS

I know this is off-topic, but any tips on how one can afford to play 3-5 hrs of Table Tennis a day everyday?

This is my personal impressions and based on my experience with different ESN rubbers. Since you already have the blue, try opening it up and pressing on the sponge since you already have it :)

What is this Rxton 3 TOP rubbers that you speak of. That may be different? , Loki is very confusing. The Rxton 3 Blue( with the blue topsheet) is not tacky at all.

I tried the regular Aurus for a while on a Tibhar Kim Jung Hoon blade back in the day, it controlled very well but just had a weird feeling. I haven't had the chance to use Aurus on my FH on an ALC blade, the Aurus Soft on my BH on a Viscaria-esque blade I had, worked wonders with Kreanga style...

Yeah that's around 100 hours of gameplay for the rubber, that sounds just about right for it to be replaced. People need to think more like this, in terms of playing hours compared to duration of how long the rubber has been attached to the blade.

I haven't used the Tibhar Aurus Prime for a lot other than a few hits, is it really easy to use? How is it on flat hits and for example flicks which is easier for non sensitive topsheets?

Blue and Pink is not Tacky at all. Blue is a 40 deg sponge on their scale, ESN-wise it feels more like 51-52 Pink is 39 deg sponge on their scale, ESN-wise it feels more like 47-49 Decent spin, but spin even more when you really engage the sponge hard. Feels like a hybrid euro rubber without...

Do you still use LAC? Vega China is good but is very heavy.

I feel you man. At my last tournament a few days ago, I was playing against a 1800~ level player I think. I won a game 11-1 and lead 2 games to 1 but ended up losing the match. I got smoked in the decider. Since I was able to win a game 11-1, clearly I'm a higher level, but my game is just...

MX-D is definitely faster than MX-P but just harder to activate. I don't know if it's just me but it definitely felt spinnier as well.

Not sure about the quality but it's quite different. The CJ8000 is on the grippy side of things and Rxton1 is somewhat tacky. On a Sanwei Froster blade the Rxton1 felt quite mushy to me, on a Loki W01(visc-esque composition as well) it will more stable and "better" to me. Loki W01 with Rxton1...

Other blades still available?
