Medium Hard Rubber for BH Recommendation

[joesan-tt]

For my Harimoto ALC, I'm considering switching to a medium hard rubber for my BH. I'm a developing player with strong FH and I have settled on the Nittaku G-1. For the BH however, I'm not finding that perfect rubber that suits my level. I need one with less spin sensitivity to the incoming spin and one that has some decent support to open up with a BH topspin. My research tells me to go with either Xiom Vega Europe Hybrid or the Nittaku C-1, both are somewhere between 43 and 45 degree hardness and I like that sweet spot and do not want to go softer than this. What do you guys recommend? My main requirement is to be able to lift the ball on underspins at the BH. As I'm developing this technique, I need a rubber that helps me develop this.

Medium Hard by convention refers to the 47 - 48 degree hardness ( ESN scale ).

So what are the offering in the 48 range?

1. Tenergy 05 ( the GOLD Standard ).
2. Donic Bluefire M1 ( T05 copycat )
3. Tibhar Aurus - cheap & good just like Dad's twenty year old Corolla
4. many more ESN 48 degreee like Rasanter R48 etc etc etc...

With a lil change, I'd rec M2 in # 2 and yes, R series, especially mid 40s are good!!!

C-1 should suit you well: same top sheet as the G-1 you already enjoy on your FH, but sponge softness right in the range you specify for your BH. Hard for you to go wrong with that combo of familiarity, quality, and durability.
