When looping (lifting) backspin with FH its very important to be positioned right. Pay attention to Your footwork. One problem I have is getting too close to the table and due to this lean backwards. This happen a lot when I don't pay attention.

I just tried Andro Nuzn 45 and I would say it is close enough to Hybrid MK FX. But I would choose Hybrid MK FX if I could. Tried them on different blades but I’m still in wait för TT11 to have them on special….

I can play with this combo. I would give the blade an off -to off rating. Fast enough for me and easy to loop with. But the great feeling I was hoping for was missing.
The rubber Nuzn 45 I think could work as a replacement for Tibhar Hybrid MK FX. But if get to choose my choice would still be...
Recovered (almost) from tennis elbow and...
I have now both versions of Carbon Nove and tonight I will test the original one (not the test version)
I will use:
FH: H3 prov BS 39
BH: Andro Nuzn 45
I will get back late tonight with a brief commentary.

Very heavy rubbers on a light blade would make the racket very top heavy. The balance is more noticeable than the actual weight within resonable limits.
I believe Neottecs have smaller heads, that’s one reason why they are lighter…

Not yet, probably by the end of the season when Dragon F expires...
It's still in the package so I cant tell the weight, guess it should be lighter than 48 though...

Oxidation is a chemical reaction to oxygen. Oxygen is present in air and water. How can a sheet which prevents direct contact with air if put on to the dry rubber ENHANCE oxidazation???
I have been using sometimes cleaner sometimes pure water and protective sheets for years and no problems...
I don't like Vega Europe, its way too soft specially on FH, Mantra I don't know anything about. The thing about softer grippy rubbers is that they are very sensitive to spin. I would select the next one up (at least 45 in hardness) in the vega series. Yes its easier to generate spin with a soft...
Exactly, I did play competitions in the 70's and restarted in 2019 with a Primorac carbon (was given to me) and sriver rubbers since I used super sriver back then. It was way too fast for me so I went down to "all" blades and worked my way up. I am now on a down tuned Primorac carbon, thinner...
Do yourself a favor and get an allwood blade and equip it with some slow and decent rubbers.
I.e:
Blade: Yasaka Sweden extra.
Rubbers: 729 snipe focus or Samwei taiji 2022. Those are two light rubbers. Chose Yasaka Mark V for something a bit more expensive with higher quality.
Play with this...
