  1. Sponge density

    And that is quite some difference. What you describe might very well be one rubber from the low end and one from the high end of the range. Victas do this also, the sponge hardness for their rubbers is given as x +/- 3.
  2. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    As for sponge hardness, maybe. But the 50 degree version is the least Chinese like hybrid I have encountered, if you consider the playing characteristics, and even the 55 degree version feels fine without booster according to a player who has used it for a while (4th league in Germany). On pro...
  3. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    Working on that ;-) I should be able to play more regularly now that the pentecost holidays are over, and before the summer holidays begin end of July.
  4. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    And yet, it´s not. At least that´s what I can say after having played both K2 and NUZN 50 - but the topsheet of the 55 is the same and to me it feels very different.

    Yes, they need a few shots to become fully alive.
  6. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    I don´t think you´ll find someone saying that after having played both. For me, the biggest advantage of NUZN is the precision it provides on that level of spin and speed, the feedback when contacting the ball. More spin and speed than C Rasanter is possible, but that always depends on the...
  7. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    It´s a little more than that. Two hours on the first evening, the games played on another evening, then again two hours against defence on a third evening and I think 700 contacts equal a couple more hours of regular practice. All of this - except for the matches on evening two - straight...
  8. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    This is a NUZN 50 after 2 hours of mostly FH to FH topspin for testing, 11 games played on another day where of course the other side of the racket was also used, two hours of nearly only forehand practice against defence and about 700 contacts during roboter practice. Despite the dust from the...

    Why would it, it´s the same.
  11. Best Rubber for Andro Treiber CO off/s

    You are right, and it surely would not be my recommendation for someone who starts from scratch. For someone who already has it I think it can make sense to see if there is a possible fit with rubbers, to arrive at an overall controllable blade, since the blade might already feel familiar. But...
  12. Best Rubber for Andro Treiber CO off/s

    Not necessarily, but it´s not categorically wrong either, depending on the blade and the choice of rubbers. I think for players wishing to develop their game the old and slow allround blades are not an ideal starting point anymore. The game and the materials have evolved and I think that there...
  13. Best Rubber for Andro Treiber CO off/s

    That´s true. I´m also often puzzled by questions about the best "backhand rubber". "Depends on your backhand" would be my answer...
  14. Best Rubber for Andro Treiber CO off/s

    And no-one should anymore ;-) In this case, I think the Hammond is a bit too much and the Good a bit too less for developing both wings. andro GTT 45 should produce enough power and be soft enough for the blade. It´s a good rubber for beginners and learners. andro Hexer Duro is even softer...
  15. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    But that´s the whole point. And it makes some reviews pointless, if you don´t look closely. If someone finds it easier to generate spin with a soft rubber than a hard one, it doesn´t mean the soft rubber has more spin or spin potential, for that matter. As for andro´s testing, I am pretty sure...

  17. Tibhar K3 durability and alternatives

    Too far out they might not be, but the complaints about very poor durability are mostly heard from K3 users. Maybe there are just more K3 users than players with other "same generation" ESN hybrids, maybe justified by a superior performance fresh out of the package. But also maybe that superior...

  19. Tibhar K3 durability and alternatives

    Several similar experiences over here, all from pros and semi-pros. They seem to wear out this rubber quickly, understandably on most amateur levels it would last longer (in weeks) since the hours of usage are less in a week. Years ago, when the cry for pro material for everyone seemed loud...
  20. Andro Nuzn 50 and 55

    Two more evenings of practice before the school holidays confirmed that NUZN 50 and SYNTELIAC ZCI is the perfect fit for me. One thing is the touch of the blade, I tried a new model from Joola recently and thought "Oh, cool" - but the same rubbers on the ZCI are "Oh, YEAH!" And the NUZN is just...
