I cant order Vega pro in my country so i have to order it from the internet if so.
I also like the Tenergy 64 on bh but i wont give the price for it.
So if you have a suggestion to a bh rubber thats like Tenergy 64 og Tenergy Bryse Highspeed but not so expensive then it will be good

If you know you like T64 on BH then you KNOW you like softer rubber on BH.

My wood i Petr Korbel
But i would also like to have a bh rubber with a lot of spin in it, and wheres its good to open up a loop and then block/punch block with bh, if im not attacking with my fh.

Xiom Omega V Tour is just like that.

Xiom Omega V Tour is the closest to T64 in Xiom brand. Tour excells T64 in spin, safety passive blocks, and at the same time is much better in active play. For active play in needs very good technique, but for dominantly BH blocking and punching is perfect.
So if you really like T64, Xiom Omega V Tour is the best alternative.

I think i will order a Gold Arc 8 to my bh. What will be the best 2,0 or in max

it depends on you but mine is max and it suit me well in terms of speed, spin, feel, everthing for NOW. bear in mind that reduce in thickness will affect the parameters directly although in some cases not significantly.
 
I sometimes browse around on Chinese TT forums as well, and the most popular recommendation there for cheaper non-Tenergy BH is Joola X-Plode Sensitive. I personally don't know how the rubber is, but it got many good reviews from Chinese players, maybe worth exploring it.[h=1][/h]

IMO don’t go Vega pro if you’re looking for something like T64. See what Carl said about T64: very soft topsheet, making the rubber feel softer than the sponge hardness would suggest (equiv 46 degree ESN.) Vega Pro’s sponge is harder than that (47.5 degree); but most importantly, the Vega Pro topsheet is on the stiff side.

Still, Vega Pro (I’ve only played with Max sponge) is a nice rubber on the backhand, and as others have said, it has good control despite the catapult. The one thing I’d say against it on the backhand is that IMO, the rubber has quite a big jump in behavior at high pace compared to more moderate, or low pace. That can make it feel a bit inconsistent. (I personally prefer VP on forehand, where I usually have enough pace to ignore the inconsistency.)
 
The ITC Ultra 45 is very.good. if you can handle the speed, the Ultra 48 is even a beer rubber. Blocks and attacks in the backhand easily. For Xiom, the omega vii pro is one of the easiest and most forgiving rubber i have tried. Think of it as an mxp with easier handling.
 
My wood i Petr Korbel
My fh rubber is red Andro R47 2,0
My Bh rubber is Yasaka Rakza 9.

I would like to have a suggestion on a new rubber for bh. I play with openings loop in fh and oftenst attackt with fh, but can also open up with bh loop where i also like to punch block/block or hit.
I dont think that a softer rubber on my bh would be good because of the catapult effect. But i would also like to have a bh rubber with a lot of spin in it, and wheres its good to open up a loop and then block/punch block with bh, if im not attacking with my fh.

So what rubber is your suggestion for my bh rubber???

And why???

Might want to try nittaku’s fastarc p1 rubber. It is quite a safe option for backhand on most blades.

Vega pro is excellent.

Generally Id get the lightest, softest and fastest rubber i could find, but thats personal taste

I have tried this short pimple Friendship 802-40 soft rubber in both 1.5 and 2.0. It can play all the attacking shots and serve with spin, not as spinny of course as a regular H3 type rubber. But it also allows you to loop drive through certain backspin balls that a regular rubber cannot. This rubber also very good for blocking and punching the ball. The loops with the rubber are definitely not as spinny but does not lack speed and can produce enough spin with a loop for an opponent to not take it lightly. It's also very very cheap under $10. I would recommend the 2.0 personally if you play more focus on active strokes.

They also have this one, again under $10. But I don't know anything about it but for the price, worth a try
