That could be an idea. Quantum X is a good rubber, but not the spinniest. Also, when looking for something that excels in blocking and still has power away from the table, Evolution EL-P springs to mind.

That is true and understandable. You could also say it´s mandatory when testing components - how does a blade behave with my rubbers, or how do different rubbers behave on my blade. Anything else is a jump into very cold water: if it works, great - if it doesn´t, what is to blame? So when...

First of all, the "everyone´s racket is better than mine" phenomenon is not unknown to me ;-) It comes and goes... From a more analytic point of view I would not be surprised that a d05/t05 setup on a structurally similar blade is easier to play than a hard Chinese rubber with a sticky hybrid...

Stiga Ebenholz? One would have to find it at a good price used, though.

Actually yes :)

Yes, that is what any theoretical advice has to be based on. But your insight on frequent actual weights should alert any potential buyer.

Well, you would have to ask yourself a few questions that no-one else can answer, starting with whether you prefer the Carbon or Soft Carbon. Both are exellent in their own way, the Soft Carbon slightly more forgiving and supporting due to its softer nature. As for the rubbers, the question...

Yes, too good to change. ;-)

But it is also a different topsheet altogether. Aurus Prime is one of the few "thin topsheet/thicker max sponge" rubbers by Tibhar and most closely resembles Andro rasanter and the likes. It has not a lot to do with the Aurus rubbers of yore and no-one really knows why they used that name. Next...

Not quite, but not too far away. The BYPE rubbers are intended to be the intermediate step between the GTT rubbers and the Hexer series. There is also a 40 degree version.

Yeah but on that bottle the name is correct.

Looks a bit dubious when it says Faifu on the bottle.

What I can contribute is that a well known player used it back in the day, when speed-glueing just got banned, on classic rubbers (Speedy Spin). A friend of mine still uses it to make his Hurricane 8 a little softer and eleastic, don´t think much else happens. It does have an effect, but if...

Sabine came back injured from the Rio contender and was barely able to walk. She is now picking up a racket again and I don´t think she could be in an acceptable condition for Paris. It doesn´t seem like her to turn down an Olympic opportunity, even if being the substitute player again surely...

So what about rule 2.4.3.2 Sandwich rubber is a single layer of cellular rubber covered with a single outer layer of ordinary pimpled rubber, the thickness of the pimpled rubber not being more than 2.0mm.

No, it´s an almost water-like liquid. https://www.tt-shop.net/product_info.php?products_id=1217&osCsid=c889085a970f1344ea616348f64c3685 It doesn´t do much on Chinese rubbers where obviously Chinese "oil" boosters give better results, but works a treat on German and Japanese rubbers.
