Loki RXTON 9 new sponge.

[Grumms]

On which blade did you glue the R9 NEO ? Me, I feel the difference to H3. Especially the sponge. Less power/capacity to generate high speed with high impact. To me, it felt softer than the number stated. Like for a 40deg, it felt closer to a 39 (both boosted ofc). How about the 40.5 ? The topsheet felt nice, and somewhat softer than H3 topsheet too.

When I tried the target on your racket, I think I mostly felt the blade difference than the rubber. The cybershape, and the softness of the touch is what I remember most from the setup. But, it felt decently dynamic, contrallable much more than my current boosted state R9 NEO (not uncontrollable like tensor my rubber is, but considerably more dynamic than my previous setup). Perhaps, someday, I might give it a go. The thing is, ordering from Loki factory on Alibaba is so cheap, tough to beat. If you find a seller on Alibaba, I might go there.

I tried it on my Cybershape Carbon. And it will be my rubber this weekend for the Day 4, because it would be a little bold to go with the Hugo Charged without testing it at all. The Cybershape might be slower than HL5, because for sure it's slower than my King acB.

More context about the test : when I boosted it, curl was minor compared to other rubbers I boost. Maybe my hand was lighter this time. I wonder if I should put a 3rd layer of JieChi before saturday's game, but I'll be home only by friday, I'm afraid the booster don't dry enough before the game.
