Rubber recommendation necessary

[Siva Schopenhauer]

Hi guys, I am using Stiga all round classic as my blade. I am changing my forehand rubber to 729 sensor. what would be the ideal combination as my Backhand rubber. I could afford a maxiumum of 30$.

Please provide me some recommendation ASAP cos I have to change it tomorrow

It depends what you're looking for. Are you going to buy from a local store or do you want to buy online?

From seeing your playing Level i would recommend for the backhand a little softer mid tempo rubber like sriver, Dawei 2008xp and so many more.
But if you buy from a shop just talk to them. Most of them have reduced prices, so you could get a good rubber that is pretty similar to those two mentioned above for your bh for under 30,-€

The stiga neos sound is a good rubber with great feel and a clear and crisp sound. It has enough speed to produce aggressive forehand topspin but it also has bags of control. Overall it is a very decent rubber and it is about £28 in the UK.

I recommend red on the backhand. But some players like black. It really comes down to your playstyle though. A player who likes stylish antispin shots and doesn't do tournaments may choose a Raquet with green on both sides!

Here are two websites that provide all the infos you need:

If you have no idea just take the same rubber for forehand and backhand.

If you want my opinion id suggest:

-Xiom Vega Europe or Pro

Xiom vega europe or japan
Certainly (33-38)$

Most of the vega series are just under 30$ on tt11

Hi Suga, If you know Contra Hamburg, I went over there. Since, I had a Friendhsip 729, they recommended the same for Backhand. I got it for less than 10 $. That was pretty cheap. I am not finding the new racket extraordinary but little worse than my old setup. i think it goes along with the money game. Thanks for the suggestions. I will probably get into a better setup after few months. I ll definitely come back to this thread for future reference

Thanks mates for your suggestions. Seems there are particularly lot of rubbers in the range of 30 euros. I settled for Friednship 729 FX 2mm on both sides. I feel a sudden quality drop in my forehand. The rubber has very little spin compared to speed. I expected good amount of tackiness and grip which was suprisingly disappointing. But, my chiquita has definitely improved and problems related to backhand were gone.

I believe little training with forehand should make me adapt to new rubber. I confess my fondness for tacky rubbers is still in the back of my head.
