Currently using JOOLA Rhyzer Pro 50 (max) with JOOLA Nobilis as my blade (Nice Nobilis reviews from Dan and Yogi).
Overall I like it. I like the harder sponge rubbers (50 and up) compared to the medium hard (47/48) because of the extra control during touch play and linear behavior. Also great when hitting hard. The Rhyzer Pro topsheet is a little harder than most ESN rubbers which I seem to like because I can do a little bit of brushing contact.
I'm ready for a new sheet of rubber and there are big discounts on Omega VII, Rasanter, DNA, and evolution (but not Rhyzer). I'm also trying to decide if I like the low throw of Pro 50. It makes my loops more deadly, but I hit the net more often when not looping (I'm hitting the net sometimes during basic drive / counter hits). Maybe it's worth it to try Omega VII Asia? DNA H? Are those safer options? Or go with an even more advanced rubber like Rasanter 53? Shell out the extra cash for Dignics? Go with something much slower and softer because my skill level isn't developed enough?
I guess I'm just curious how the other hard sponge rubbers compare. Trying out a hybrid tacky rubber isn't out of the question either. (I don't want to boost anything).
Here is a video of me hitting forehands during a practice session. I haven't had practice with a coach in a while. His blocks of my loops were putting me under more pressure than the average guys that I play with.
