It is getting a bit annoying that every tt company suddenly is releasing 3-5 rubbers a year... Is this just a way to jack up prices? I played some of those new shiny rubbers and I do really struggle to see differences with older products sometimes. 3 years ago 50€ was expensive for me, most...

42. The answer is 42.

Consider Gewo ELPro 48. Thin top shit. Sponge hardness you want.

Ma dude. Are you aware that you can just twiddle the racket you have and play YOUR own Vega X on YOUR own blade to experimentally check if Vega X is good for YOUR backhand?

get Rakza 7 FH and 7 Soft BH and as previous guy said. Don't think about it.

Do you train with coach?

To name a few: - Tibhar Curious - Sanwei Flextra - Donic Dyjas Ultrapower (did not like that one that much) - TSP SWAT (however that is called rn) - Tibhar Samsonov Force Pro (thicker of the thinnest, can be a tad stiff) I would aim for <= (less or) 6mm.

Keep the rubbers and thinner 7ply? BTW your technique is great. I noticed your wrist is stationary during the stroke ( at least that is the what I think I saw on slow mo, maybe your movement is suple). You can try adding wrist to your top-spin or at least loosening a bit. That should give you...

A fellow player from my old middle school asked me for help to find new setup. The issue is extremely small budget. He played a bunch of my stuff and we settled on thin 7 ply. Sanwei Fextra at 100PLN is the main candidate.

Welp. I think that saying that H3 is spinniest is a bit missleading. Looping away from table and serves, totally. I cannot generate same spin and power near the table though. Not enough fitness I guess.

I think that R42 would be one of the softest rubbers in this price bracket. Maybe you could consider showing your footage on the Safe Thread. Maybe potentially instead of new rubber, all you need is a bit of practice. (That sentence last sounds a bit cynical, but my intentions are rather...

BTW I think that rasanter R42 might be the softest one (maybe Donic M3 is roughly on the same level of softness)

I they all have different hardnesses. From the top of my head Vega Japan is 45, Donic M3 40, V15 47.5

The custom version VODAK Miroslav Hořejší I have is by far my favorite :p (Super ALC + Ovtcharov No.1 Senso handle head)

So I guess that should answer somewhat your hybrid curiosity :p

You mentioned that your buddy has Rakza Z on one of his rackets, maybe he will let you hit a few balls with that. That should give you a hit about your "Hybrid Curious" thing.

Nobody will make this decision for you. That combo sounds great. Check TT11 youtube channel maybe it will give you some answers. They sell a lot of stuff so maybe they know what they sell :p (https://www.youtube.com/@Tabletennis11)

Speaking of Gewo, you might investigate their rubbers as well. I played with the 48. Very good, but after 3 months or so went ded.

i.e. When one of my clubmates wants to try a setup I have, I just lend them the racket / rubber / blade for one training session.

I mean. Go ask around the club for people to let you have a go. Maybe someone in the club will have a used rubber to borrow as well. We do that quite often.
