Razka XX (max)-weight of a cut rubber?

[steve888]

Hi,

I have used a Razka z (max) and its very heavy for a cut version for a normal size blade, around 52g. Wondering what the weight of the Razka xx is, hopefully its lighter ? . Thanks

Cut to a yasaka falck W7 or carbon, I have a could of sheets of RXX max at 47 grams and one sheet of RZ max at 49-50 grams. All black. So it looks lighter for used sheets with the glue peeled off. (also measured some older sheets of RX and R7 max and they were in the 46-47 range as well)

Thanks very helpful. How did the xx compare with Rx for speed spin and control? Did you like the ribber in how it played? I hear it's in the same category as dignics 05 in performance?

I have not played as much with Dignics as I have RX and RXX, but I found them different.

I have flopped from RX to RXX back to RX and over the last month or two back to RXX on my forehand. I am trying RX on my backhand (comparing with RZ and R7).

RX is better at control. I find I can hit my desired target quiet easily with RX. However my shots with RXX are clearly more powerful-more speed, better depth, better spin. If I hit a good loop with RXX there is less chance my opponent can return it.

Thanks for the info, is the xx spin sensitive , for example returning spinny serves and keeping the ball short?

RX is less spin sensitive and RXX is more so compared to each other. I think I can control the ball and keep it shorter than both with RZ although it is tacky and Neither RX or RXX are tacky at all.
