Setup Recommendations, for bh rubber, on tmxi pro

[yossi]

Hi
I bought a tmxi pro blade for the first time.
I glued a c55 and a v47.5 from xiom onto the blade.
The blade feels great but has some issues.
The racket is very heavy and the backhand is really unforgiving
I like relatively hard rubber on the backhand than soft but it has to be slower.
Thanks guys

Stiga Mantra Pro H is quite linear and controllable for the BH. Made in Japan, available on aliexpress.

Yesterday I had a training session with a friend of mine, who plays with TMXi Pro and has Andro Rasanter R42 on the backhand.
I was amazed from this rubber: It lifts underspin balls real easy, it's exceptional at blocking and it's very light.
Although on "paper" it's 42o, it doesn't feel soft at all. I believe the reason is that this particular rubber has a really thin topsheet, while the sponge is thicker than other rubbers. I know that you're looking for a hard rubber, but take a look at this one before you decide.

I play with normal TMXi and will definitely be my next BH rubber.

looking for a lighter rubber that is relatively hard and balanced in its characteristics: omega 7 pro is the obvious answer

mantra pro h is not that light on tmxi pro (about 52-53g) but its a very good rubber too. easy to play, does not feel too hard but provides good support for all shots. not spin sensitive

Omega 7/8 are indeed light and great for BH, but bouncy.

I also think Daiki made Rubbers tend to be slightly lighter aswell.
(Stiga Mantra Pro, Nittaku Hammond Z2, Nexy Etika)
Had 4 sheets, 3 47° and 1 51°, all of them below 50g. If I remember correctly one sheet was 43g.
In generall softer sponges are lighter.

Has it been discontinued? It's been out of stock in tt-japan for months now

Im not sure, it seems that you can still buy it on Mizunos Website, but for a higher price.
Maybe TT-Japan just bought a limited stock and thats it. They surely have a reason, a quick mail might do the trick.

Recently I haven't been able to find the new color Mantra Pro series on Aliexpress, and it looks as though a lot of stores have stopped carrying it as well. The only gold medal store I can find that still has it is Global Sports Store and they are out of stock on a few versions. Quite a shame because there are no other Japanese-manufactured new color rubbers available

Have you got any luck on repurchasing the Q quality via TT Japan since May?

No, I didn't really try since then. Durability seems quite decent on BH.
It looks like they are still sold out on their website anyways.
