Xiom Omega V Pro as backhand rubber?

TT-Chris · May 29, 2016

Hello,

I need your help. I am searching for a new backhand rubber. I am playing Tibhar MX-S atm. Problem is the low catapult. The rubber is rly good but with the lack of catapult I make unuasal mistakes. I want a rubber with a bit more catapult. MX-S is too much. I think the Xiom Omega V Pro could be the right choice. What do you guys think? I am playing the Xiom Omega V Europe in FH and I am totally statisfied.

Regards Chris

If you like omega V europe on FH, most probably you'll also like soft sponge on BH.

What about getting another omega V europe on the BH?

Yep. I agree with laistrogian here.

It feels too soft on BH. The catapult is too much.

Have you ever tried Rasant Grip?

It has MX-S grip, but is soft and a little bit bouncier, but not much. It seems like the kind of rubber you are looking for.

I agree with this if you feel like omega V europe is too bouncy. Rasant grip is a very balanced rubber

TT-Chris: What I am scratching my head about is that, it seems you like harder deader rubber on your BH and softer bouncier rubber on FH. For most people that is backwards. The FH swing is so much bigger than the BH swing that this is not the norm. But in the end, all this is about personal preference.

Usually the softer rubber helps the smaller stroke that doesn't have as much body behind it. Hopefully the harder deader rubber being on BH is actually working for you and not messing up the touch of your BH. Sometimes what we are used to is not what would be best for our development.

I know that. I am a decent Player but my backhand is my stronger side. I played MX-S on backhand for 2 years. It was good with the Infinity but with my new blade it doesnt fit. Dima plays a softer rubber on FH too and he is very succesful

+1 to Rasant Grip but have thought about MX-P? I'm just asking.

I am testing the Joola Rhyzm-P atm. Really good rubber. I bit soft but it is very powerful. I like it.

MX-P is probably one of the fastest rubber around. Definitely a notch faster than the omega V europe
