I put this on at max thickness with Free Chack 2 glue, for a total weight of 47g.
1. Third-ball power drives are easy!2. Even though it's soft, stops and counter-drives are so easy it feels unfair!3. In topspin rallies, it's easy to hit that high, arcing drive you see with Dignics, where the ball lands on the opponent's side and then jumps back up!
At first I thought it seemed suited to the backhand, so I used it there.
It really does grip the ball easily, and even chiquitas or backhand drives done with just the wrist go in easily, which is fun, but the quality of the shots ended up a bit lower. When I tried it on the forehand, it was way better than I expected, and the traits I listed above really came through, which was fun. Compared to 64- or 80-sheet rubbers, speed drives come out with a solid arc and sink down, so even if your push is a bit low or shallow, as long as you have swing speed and can put your whole body into it, you can force your way into a solid power drive. With the 64 series, stops tend to float and loop drives feel difficult, but with 19, power drives are easy and stops and loop drives are both high quality, so personally I felt like this rubber is unfair — Butterfly quality, as expected. I've also written about it on my blog, so please check that out too.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Max thickness, 50g.
1. It really does feel like Tenergy 05! The top sheet is softer than MX-P and the sponge has more give, which makes it feel more like Tenergy 05. That said, I think Tenergy 05 still has the edge in maximum spin. 2. The arc goes up more! Playing against backspin is easier! 3. It's similar, but flat hitting is easier than with Tenergy 05!
My impression is that it's an evolution of MX-P for the plastic ball era, and also a budget version. The Quantum has a thinner, softer top sheet and a thicker sponge, so the ball sinks in nicely, it's easy to handle, and spin grabs well too. Being easy to handle, though, I felt the Quantum tends to slide more.
This applies to Tibhar rubbers in general, but compared to Tenergy, the spin performance is a bit lower, and in exchange, flat hitting is easier — I think that's the defining trait.
Tenergy is really a rubber built for topspin drives, whereas with Quantum or MX-P, flat hits, smashes, angled shots, and backhand techniques are easier to pull off.
Hope this helps as a reference.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

FL, 88g. Currently my main blade; before this I used the Zhang Jike ZLC.
1. A stronger arc than the ZLC! 2. The feel and handling are similar to the ZLC. Being softer, it holds the ball firmly! 3. The backhand in particular is great — you can really feel it holding the ball!
With the ZLC, against half-long backspin balls, looping was pretty much my only option, but since this blade produces a stronger arc, it's become much easier to power-loop half-long backspin balls, which is what I like most about it. Compared to the ZLC, it holds the ball and the blade is thicker, so you get more distance, more power, and more spin — it has a bit of a 7-ply feel, which is nice. Overall the ball speed dropped a bit though.
Compared to the Timo Boll Spirit, it doesn't just fling the ball away — it holds it properly, and you can feel how good the grip's balance point is.
Compared to the Stradivarius, there are fewer weird over-the-table misses, and I can feel the difference in construction (aramid carbon with ayous plies vs. the Zhang Jike ALC's ALC and limba plies). I think the Zhang Jike ALC is more to the taste of advanced players.
The downside is that, being such a mainstream choice, it's hard to differentiate yourself from other players.

2.1mm, 50g.
- Pushes stay nice and low, easy to keep on the table! No wonder it's Samsonov's backhand rubber!
- The topsheet is firm, so countering and flat-hitting are easy!
- The feel is closer to Dignics than to Tenergy!
What surprised me was how close the feel was to Dignics! The one letdown was that the spin wasn't quite as strong as Dignics, though.
The ease of pushing really stands out, and I feel switching just for that would be worth it. Among German-made rubbers, this felt very much like a typical Tibhar rubber - the kind that resembles Butterfly rubbers a lot. I felt that using this before moving to Dignics made the transition feel natural.
Hope this helps.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

52g at max thickness.
1. The spin is insane — beyond the advertised specs! 2. The sheet is hard and the sponge is soft, so counters are easy and it handles well! 3. A perfect balance that doesn't fly too much!
This really lives up to being their best work, with genuinely high spin performance. Factoring in how easy it is to generate spin, it feels like it grips even more than Omega 5 Tour DF. On the other hand, the issue is slipperiness — it slipped quite a bit on pushes and blocks. Since it's a hard-sheet, soft-sponge rubber, some slipperiness might just be unavoidable. Even so, once you factor in the value for money, it's a surprisingly good rubber. The one regret is that it's a bit heavy — I think it'll go over 50g. That said, compared to Omega 7 Tour or Pro, it doesn't have that dead, muted feel — it's springy and works perfectly fine on the backhand too.
The spin level is about on par with Tenergy 05, and the speed is close to Tenergy 80.
If you have the skill to work around the slipperiness and use it for things like stops or knuckle drives, I think the value for money makes this a really attractive rubber.
