Hello,
I'm searching for a new rubber for next season but there's so much choice. I would like to hear your advice.
First my playing style:
I am a FH orientated player. I mainly use my FH rubber to loop, sometimes short-push, flick and serve. I rarely block with my FH, I rather counter-loop.
My BH is more varied. I block, push, loop, flick... It's not as good as my FH so I need good control on my BH.
Currently I'm using Adidas P7 on the FH and Xiom musa on the BH. My blade is Adidas V1.3 (OFF-). I really like the P7, so I don't think i gonna change it. I'm less satisfied of my BH rubber. It's too slow and sometimes I have the feeling I don't have enough time to make a topspin stroke. It also requires to much effort to loop a underspin ball.
So I think I need a softer rubber because the ball sinks more in the sponge and I therefore have more time (Xiom musa actually is medium-hard). The rubber must still have good control and be versatile.
I was thinking about the Xiom vega europe and the Andro Impuls Powersponge or Hexer Powersponge.
What's your opinion about those rubbers for my playing style and do you have other recommandations? Mainly for the BH, but alternatives for the FH are also welcome.
