We agree to disagree. There is something with the R50 that makes it not too hard. Even at 50 degrees the r50 feels like 48. I had all the rasanter versions before, the vt feels a tad harder. Also with the r50, it is easier to sink the ball against the rubber compared to the vt.
I was producing incredible chops away from the table cause I let the ball sink in. Spin was amazing...but for some reasons I could not manage opening against pushes and chops. Rakza X was on the other side and it did much better, maybe because I am more familiar with it
I am a long time fan of xiom rubbers, used and tried most of them and probably will try the VT hoping the it will fit my attacking style, otherwise I will stick with the Rakza.
I like the fact that the VT is light and I'll be happy if it can offer a bit more than the VP, or Vega Japan. BTW are there similarities with the VJ? Where do they differ?
Is it just me, or must either “elasto futura”, or “cycloid” be their name for 2.3mm sponge + thin top sheet?
(Reasoning: (1) xiom employees have confirmed on this forum that O7 has the thick sponge, thin topsheet structure; and (2) the only new tech names for o7 are elasto futura and cycloid. Hence the thought that one of these two terms most likely covers the thin sheet/2.3 sponge tech.)
If that’s the case (not sure), it sounds like VT might have that structure too.
Any info on this?
