Are hybrid rubbers more prone to humidity?

Hello all.. in humid conditions does something like g09c play worse than the regular glayzer (for example).or are they both affected the same… (Because I’m thinking in investing in a hybrid rubber)

Thank you🙏🏻

Everyone I know who is using Butterfly or DHS rubbersin some (our) venue(s) swears a lot when humidity is high... Problem with all (these) rubbers is that one has to make a more solid contact in these conditions to grip the ball well enough. I.e.: footwork/technique and how well one can adopt/change tactic(s) are the key.

The more tacky a rubber is the more it suffers…

Yeah, harder and tacky rubbers suffer the most. victas vs401 is a good example. It’s a great rubber but it’s unusable in humid conditions.

when humidity is so bad playing with sticky rubbers becomes problematic (no grip) I switch to my blade with Rozena.

Oh wow I always imagined that this would be an andvantage in humidity, since sticky rubbers are more common in asian countries where many regions tend to have higher humidity. Good to know

sometimes theory and praxis just don't match at all 😁
I always thought when the Pros constantly wipe their rubbers with the palm of their hands that they were wiping off dust but maybe they try to get rid of moisture too ????

My mates Tenergy 05 suffers with ball slip in the summer humidity here,my heavily spinmaxed T 05 is fine
