Customer review for XIOM Jekyll and Hyde V47.5

External Review for XIOM Jekyll and Hyde V47.5 on November 2, 2025

Bias: Im newer player and it was my starting setup. Havent had other backhand rubber.

This rubber is great for backhand because of its lower throw angle, allowing some dangerous shots for opponent. I find the v47 to feel even harder than other rubbers in this 45-50 range.

The lower throw and the focus on speed makes this an excellent offensive rubber. You do not choose this for maximum control. However the control is very good. I would also not advice this for forehand. Are you not an offensive player with your backhand i would advice to find another.

Blocks: Active block is excellent. Manifique. Normal blocks not so much.

The biggest downside for this rubber is the spingeneration. It produces notably less speed than Rasanter, Nuzn. It is less spin sensitive which is nice. It is a bit catapulty and not hard enough not to activate on shorts, so this rubber is not great at short game.
The rubber rewards a player that drives/topspins a lot and is an offensive player. I would recommend it.

Durability: Been playing it with it for 8 months 4 hours a week in average, and it has no scratches and works great. Definintely the most durable rubber i have seen.
