  • Cybershape Clipper

    User review

    I bought this because I was drawn to the shape.
    True to the Cyber Shape design, the sweet spot is wider than on the normal Clipper Wood. The balance point is also a bit more toward the tip, though not as much as a WRB-type blade. Because of that, it's easier to swing through than the normal version. It gives the impression that chiquitas, flicks, and other short-game techniques over the table are easier to pull off.
    On paper it's 5g lighter than the normal version, but because the blade surface is wider, the total weight ends up heavier once you put rubber on. That's the downside.
    Overall it's a solid, orthodox 7-ply blade, so I think it's a good option to have as another choice.

  • RAKZA XX

    User review

    I use thick on my backhand. I've tried pretty much the whole Rakza lineup, but ever since XX came out I can't go back to anything else. Among rubbers in the same hardness range, it feels soft and easy to sink the ball into. The sheet is strong too, so it's an all-around rubber for pushes, blocks, drives, and chops. Pushes especially cut really well. If you're already using something from the Rakza series, you should be able to use this without any issues.
    That said, maybe because the sheet is so strong, it feels like the lifespan is a bit shorter compared to other rubbers in the Rakza series.

  • Vega Pro hybrid

    User review

    Put this on my backhand. Up until now, I'd been using Hybrid K3 (2.0) ever since it came out. I felt like my backhand counters were too delicate, so I was looking for something a bit softer that I could still use at max thickness.
    I think this rubber is easy to use for anyone who's been using a slightly-tacky rubber around German 50 degrees. I'm satisfied with both the spin and the speed. I plan to keep using it for a while.
    That said, even though it feels on the harder side, it's rated 47.5 degrees, so people who can handle tacky or genuinely hard rubbers might find it lacking.
    It might be a good first rubber for someone switching over from tension rubbers, but personally I feel its performance is a bit middle-of-the-road, so I'd recommend other rubbers instead.

  • PREHNITE

    User review

    I bought this from a friend who wasn't using it anymore.
    It's an 85g FL. I used it as a backup racket for about a month (roughly 6 hours of play).
    Thanks to the CNF, the feel is consistent across the whole blade. It's a bit hard for a 5-ply, but quite soft for an outer blade. It also grips the ball well and has a more moderate bounce than a typical 5-ply. It bounces less than the Cybershape Wood Revoldia CNF. My impression is it's about the same as, or maybe slightly less bouncy than, an Innerforce ALC. For a blade with special material in it, it resonates in the hand more than you'd expect.
    It seems like it would pair well with hard tension rubbers or unorthodox (pips/anti) rubbers. With tacky rubber the arc gets too pronounced, so I'd say it works best up to a firmer, lightly tacky rubber.

    User review

    I like Calderano and I normally use slightly tacky rubbers, so I decided to try this.
    The sponge is hard and the sheet is soft. It's heavy. Personally the feel reminds me of Hybrid K3, with even more of a sense of really gripping the ball. It doesn't bounce as much as K3. That said, you need to sink the ball right into the sponge to get a good shot. Without a solid impact, or if you just brush the sheet, the ball tends to come out flat and easy to punish. In other words, a strong impact is essential. For most people this will probably end up being a forehand-only option.
    Highly recommended for players who like mid-distance topspin rallies, all-forehand power players, and choppers. Chopping is easy and bites well.
    I think you get more out of this rubber's potential on a harder blade than on a softer one.
    It might not be a great fit if you're switching over from a tension rubber.
    If you normally use tacky or hard, slightly-tacky rubbers, it's worth trying.
