Rakza 7 is about 48-9g cut, quite on par with G-1 and these first-generation T05 wannabee rubbers. A layer of booster is about 1.5g extra from FTL, but I don't boost ESN or Japanese rubbers.
Man, several of my Rakza 7's 2.0 weighed 52+ grams (unboosted)

G-1 2.0 45-48g for me.

My set up weighs 207grams
Rakza Z EH max on FH
Rakza Z max on BH
SDC defensive 7 + 2 ply blade, longer handle than standard plus the Dotec wings add a bit of weight, but because of the longer handle, balance is low, so it’s not really head heavy.
You should do some arm-wrestling with @latej and @Der_Echte 💪

Hello! Try the enhanced Jupiter 3 for forehand. I don’t know how he will play with the Joola ball, but it plays perfectly with the DHS Dj 40+. For a long time I played Hurricane 3 on forehand, and I played Hurricane when it was not yet mainstream and everyone around me played sriver and twisted at the temple, looking at my hard sticky slow rubber. Now I play Jupiter 3 and I really like it - the speed is higher; the weight is less - 49-50 gr at hardness 39 thickness max on racket; the stickiness is slightly lower; the durability is comparable and somewhere even higher! - on a hurricane I had bubbles when the topsheet came off the sponge in the center, but on Jupiter 2/3 this has never happened, even if there is a lot of booster, which indicates a high-quality gluing of the topsheet with the sponge at the factory; the price is much lower!
Of the hybrid rubbers, I tried Rakza Z and I can say that Jupiter is better for me, because it is faster, cheaper, more durable and has a completely different trajectory - more gentle, which is very unpleasant for opponents, in addition, you can send the ball without spin, what can not Rakza Z do ...
There is a small fly in the ointment in this barrel of honey - Jupiter must be strengthened.
