This is just a fun rubber to play with, and a good choice in my opinion as a backhand rubber. Lovely touch, relatively spin insensitive, blocks well, and I feel like everything that I loop is always going to hit the table. Doesn't have great top end speed, but that isn't why I bought it and is more than made up for in my opinion by its control, spin, and predictability. Great rubber and I will be playing it for the foreseeable future.

Andro Rasanter R42
Our notes: Around 66g uncut; Good medium-soft, all around attacking rubber.The rubber is soft enough for good blocking. Good for both forehand and backhand especially for beginners and intermediate players. Advanced players can enjoy using this as a backhand rubber. The medium soft sponge enables the player to grip the ball properly and produce very high amount of spin.
• Your profile is spin driven. You are looking for maximum grip.
• As an advanced to high level player you will benefit from medium 42° sponge hardness taking full control on your spins.
• Your style is versatile and you are smart enough to combine top spin potential with a medium soft sponge to guarantee superior feedback and control.
• Add some extra speed in your stroke and the R42 will provide the dynamic performance you are looking for.
Speed: 117
Spin: 126
Control: 88

excellent rubber, but much softer than what usually 42 do
lot of dynamic bounce and control. But not so much grip & speed though, like all soft rubbers
lot of dynamic bounce and control. But not so much grip & speed though, like all soft rubbers
Great rubber for developing players, not for beginners, medium hard rubber, 46 grams cutted in 2 mm thickness, andro r series are special for flat smashes, like no other sheets, very good for forehand, highly recommended.
UPDATED!!!
In my opinion, this rubber is a real spin monster. You can see what is possible with it in many videos by Adam Bobrow on YouTube!!! ;-P (- as far as I know, he plays it on an Andro Kanter Carbon! ... but he has since switched to the R 45.) I personally use it on my Stuor Professional Long V (Cybershape) on the forehand side. ( - for me, with this combination I have found a racket with which I can act much more successfully against pimpled or anti-players!!! ;-P) Facts: my (green) 2.0 mm rubber weighed 94 g in the original packaging, 64 g uncut and most recently on my Cybershape blade 46 g. - relatively light for Cybershape dimensions!!! The sponge hardness is 42 degrees (int. level = 35 degrees chin. level), the total hardness is given (by Spin & Speed in Germany!) as 48.8 degrees. Conclusion: In my opinion, the R 42 is a Hexer Powergrip SFX with a softer top rubber, which gives the rubber more catapult and speed! ... it delivers a lot of spin and is very controlled. For these reasons it should also be of interest to many players. I recommend it for rather stiff and not too soft blades!!! Addendum: I now also use this rubber (with 2 mm) on my Huieson ZLC and this harder and faster wood enables an very controlled offensive game with a lot of rotation !!! ;-P Addendum: ive glued my rubbers with solvent-based glue!

I play with this rubber on BH. The previous rubber was the Mizuno Q5. IMO R42 its fine ratio of speed to control, very good but not perfect rubber for looping, leading and blocking. I was surprised how quickly I got used to the R42.
