Throw angle is not a rubber property!

Golden Tango used to be pretty close - have your tried Tibhar K2 or Gewo EF 54? And J&H C55 and C57.5 on the outside chance?
I tried to try hybrid rubbers before, but thanks to our neighbors, this winter it was difficult to do - there were no windows in the hall after the arrival of russian missiles and drones, there was no electricity and heating again due to the massive shelling of the energy infrastructure of my country. Now the windows have been installed, it has become warmer outside, we have generators. So my training, as well as communication with you, friends, on this forum, are being resumed! By the way, the generator is working at this time.

I've been looking for a rubber for my forehand for a long time that wouldn't need a booster and would have the same characteristics as the boosted H3, including that low throw angle, but for now, this search continues...
This doesn't exist, I have come to the same conclusion after searching a while like you, that's why everybody still uses H3N :)

And I agree with the people above, throw angle is the rubber, blade and person combined. Nice thread to read.

So the conclusion of this thread is that we now have changed the word throw angle to mean what we called trajectory before this and no longer have a word to mean throw angle. Should we also now say that since opening and closing the blade face changed the trajectory that it is also called throw angle too?

This thread is a bit silly. Of course a rubber has a throw angle, just because a sports car and a Hyundai i10 can both accelerate to 70mph doesn't mean we need to change the term performance vehicle to mean all cars that can go 70mph.

Confusion from conclusions grows ;-)

Agreed. The thread is completely ridiculous.
The OP seems to think it's fun to write pages of nonsense just to provoke 'conversation' 🙄

I'll start a new thread called "spin makes no difference in TT because we all just adapt to it anyway".
My conclusion will be you are all idiots for not flat hitting and using pimples.
Should be a great conversation 🤣
