Customer review for Andro Rasanter R50

Review by yogi_bear for Andro Rasanter R50 on August 9, 2017

The R50 is my favorite among the 6 Rasanter rubbers. It is not the fastest rubber among the series because both the 47 version rubbers are faster than the R50. Sometimes, I would find the 42 degree versions bouncier than the R50. The powergrip version has some similarities with the R50 but the R50 is very easy to produce spin. The topsheet and sponge grips the ball easily compared to the Powergrip which I find not so spinny before unless you put some effort. I find it very spinny and I would rate the spin as a little less than mx-s but spinnier than el-s at slow loops. If I compare it with the MX-P, the MX-P seems spinnier on stronger shots while R50 is spinnier on slow spinny loops. The speed is good enough and it is in the level of EL-S but it is not too bouncy. Moreover, I would like to describe it as an MX-S rubber with an increased speed. I like it better than the EL-S because there are some shots with the EL-S that seems dead or less lively. The R50 can serve and push well because of the grippy topsheet. It behaves almost like a Chinese rubber inside the table using drop shots or short pushes while maintaining the spin. I would recommend it both as a forehand and backhand rubber. It is not even choosy with the blade. R50 = 72 grams uncut
