Yes, don’t like that one either.

Japanese rubbers do tend have a unique feeling, hard to replicate that especially when picking from German manufacturers. Z2 is on my list of things I'd like to try but I prefer rubbers that have stronger spin than speed so I'm not sure how well I'd end up liking it. Not to mention I have a plethora of rubbers I am cycling between at the moment.

I don't like my MX-S right now. A bit harder in terms of hardness and hard to control. I like Xiom Vega X better right now and Rakza 7 soft on my BH.

To recycle the MX-S, I plan to put it on my 5-ply wood (Tibhar Stratus Power wood) and my 7-ply wood (Donic Persson Powerplay) blades.

There is no logical reason for it, but I don’t like anything “Tibhar”. I do have a sheet of Hybrid MK lined up but the lack of stickiness has turned me off and I have low expectations.

Z2 is good rubber, no it it not the spinniest but it is just reactive enough to give good speed AND short game.

I think Tibhar K3 has good reviews.

I like EL-S ok. I think that has the best spin/speed ratio. Not sure about MX-P, MX-P 50, MX-S, etc. etc.

Many people swear that the Revolution series is the closet thing to Tenergy series. Oh well.

I am onto Rakza series and Xiom Vega series right now. Leaving the Revolution series behind. Won't buy any of those soon.

I have played with MXP, MXS, ELP, ELS, FXP and FXS and don’t like any of them.
The one I dislike the least is MXP. Logically I should like MXS, but I just don’t.

I used to like Kenta Matsudaira that’s why I have that rubber lined up…

I have been using Aurus Prime on FH and Select on BH and these are the best Tibhar rubbers I have played - I prefer them to the Eco series.

I actually have a pair of Aurus Prime which I haven’t tested yet. Maybe as a BH rubber ?
If You compare them to an EVO (any one) what would you say?

Same as Lazer, I am curious about your impression of Evoluation series v.s. Aurus Prime and Select as well! Please let us know when you have time.

I’ve only tried MX-P and I find Prime much more stable and feels softer. I like it on FH but it would work well on BH too. Let me know when you try it.

It will take a while, it’s not on the top of my list, but I will post here when I do.

Right now I’m doing glazer09c / glazer,
Then I have hybrid MK / Neottec X5 M,
After this Rakza Z / Something on BH , maybe here I could fit it…

Also lined up I have but no slot allocated.
Nittaku hurricane 3 pro orange, But it’s so heavy it doesn’t really fit anywhere.
A set of Stiga DNA pro M.
Finally one sheet of Victas ventus extra.

During testing my main weapon so far is
Hammond Z2 / Accuda blue P2. But I’m liking the glazers so much may upgrade them to be my main, in that case a blade becomes free, we’ll see.

Cheers
