You say: ‘fast afterwards’. Does that mean a fast topspin or a more fast flat stroke? I recently changed my MX-P (on the forehand side) for Rasanter R-47. The R-47 suites me better for hard flat strokes. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

The first experience with Rasanter r47 is very good. It doesn’t feel that tacky, but it does what is said about it. Has good speed and control and also delivers good, and for me, enough spin. Somehow, I believe due to less catapult, I can hit hard strokes better then compared with the mx-p...

After long consideration, trying different rubbers and some good advice. Yesterday bought the Rasanter r47 (maximum: 2.3) and tonight will see how it works! Expectations are high. To be continued. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

O7Pro, will probably, like Thom, not work for me either. I guess due to very fast blade. If the chance is there to try, I will give it a go. Otherwise I will just stick to MX-P Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

Thanks for all the posts and advice. I have not been playing for a couple of weeks so I almost forgot about this discussion. Last Thursday I played with Xiom OVA and as mentioned by others already, the sponge is to hard and probably topsheet as well. To be honest I couldn’t play my normal...

Just tried once. It was okay, but I just forget doing so once playing, I’m not used doing such thing... Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

No, the average of all blades is 86 grams. The 290 (approximate) 97 grams. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

Yes, full swing. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

I guess I prefer power over speed. Mainly for the kick of making those shots :) The weight of the 290 is 97 gram. The average weight of blades is 86. (Looked it up). My former blade Xiom Axela has a weight of 90 (approximate), so a little less heavy. The weight should be sufficient for that kind...

OVII pro didn’t work me. Very good for hard hitting, the flat strokes and smashes, but couldn’t make the kind of spin I’m used to. The way I’m used to ‘scratch’ the ball with MXP to deploy the spin can’t be done that way with OVII. You have a sort of hit the ball firmer and/or adjusting the...

Good point there. I think I should be carefull not to make the mistake that ‘more is (always) better’. The attacking spin capacity of the MXP suites me well, and quite regular the ralley won already. So the hard flat strokes are just one aspect, but very annoying when going wrong. Tonight I will...

My clubmate mentioned with Xiom OVA just emailed me I should look into the Xiom Omega VII Asia or even the Xiom Omega VII Tour. This last one mentioned is to ambitious I think, but what are the thoughts on the Xiom Omega VII Asia? (My clubmate plays with Xiom Omega VII pro, but believes that...

Thank you very much. I will look up both rubbers mentioned. Never heard of Mantra H, but I think one of my clubmates has Xiom OVA, so I can give that one a try. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

Good idea! I will try that first and see what happens then. (though I need a new FH rubber).

MXP 50 is not available in my regular shop, country? (=Netherlands) and quite expensive too... even so, if durability is the same as the ‘regular’ MXP, then an expensive purchase. I’m really considering the R47 now. Seems to have better durability according to figures and reviews. Verzonden...

No it’s not the blade. I used to play with Xiom Axelo (off++), but the Stiga Carbonado 290 has a lot more control. Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

I use the maximum thickness for the MXP. Despite the very fast blade (and rubber), the ball tends to go in the net with fast flat strokes. MXP wears out soon too, so I was looking for a more durable alternative (not Tenergy, I already tried). Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk

Does anybody has any experience in difference concerning hard flat strokes between the two rubbers mentioned? I now play with the MXP and find it sometimes difficult, in follow up on a fast opening FH topspin, to play a hard flat stroke and I wonder if the Andro Rasanter R47 is perhaps better...
