OOAK Table Tennis Forum

as the title suggests i need a replacement for my tenergy 64 although im pretty happy with it i want to try some other rubbers. I play single sided Jpen so the rubber needs to be very very fast(i play from mid distance a lot)it needs good spin for serves and loops, but it cant have a too high sensivity to incoming spin because that would really mess up my backhand blocks and drives, definately no tacky chinese(i tried hurricane 3) rubber those have too high of a throw for me and are too slow for my punch blocks and away from the table looping aswell

So i need a very fast, pretty spinny rubber with a medium throw, also i dont like too soft rubbers.

rubbers that i currently consider are: xiom sigma pro, stiga calibra lt(or lt plus), tibhar 1Q xd, andro hexer plus, joola express one, donic bluefire 1

do you guys think any of these would suit me well? or would you suggest something else

Instead of Joola express one, you could try Joola Rhyzm... its getting good reviews..

I didnt like the Joola express rubbers.... they had poor durability and didn't generate much spin for me. Rhyzm gets good reviews but I havent tried it.

I Think Calibra is what ur looking for, or the new evolution rubber, but bluefire is a hightrow rubber, so u will not like it....

+1 dude.

In the last year, a good chunk of Korean J-Pen players have switched from T64 to Tibhar 1Q. This was fueled by the jump in price of a sheet of Tenergy from $55 USD to almost $80 USD overnight. Tibhar 1Q has the specs you are looking for and should make you happy enough.

Since I got my paws on Evolution MX-P a few weeks to test drive, I can tell you that rubber has even more of the specs you desire. it plays like a juicier T64, but is different from Tenergy.

I used Calibra LT and liked it a lot on FH, and also allowed a Div 1 J-pen player to use it a few weeks. He liked the attacking, but the connecting shots felt too different and he slapped his T64 right back on.

Calibra LT is way too low throw fro what OP is looking for, but man, that rubber really shines in the first strong attack and in loopdriving the crap outta an incoming topspin.
