Review by speaquinox (OOAK forum, published with
permission) I've used it for 2 sessions.
Blade is TBS.
Sheet is a bit lighter than Vega Euro and Baracuda.
Not sure it's lighter than Boost TC or Roundell Soft. Probably in
between these and Vega Euro. Sponge is significantly softer than Vega
Euro and also TC.
Throw is a bit lower than Baracuda and T05. Higher
than Boost TC. Can be classifier Med+.
Spin on slow strokes is nice. May be just a bit lower
than Baracuda, Also lower than T05. One of the easiest for
openers/lifting pushes. Decent for serving and pushing. Spin is
something like Sriver and Mark V here. Better spin with higher toss on
serves due to softer sponge.
Looping is a breeze. Feel is great. Spin is very very
nice Maybe just a bit lower arc than Baracuda and quite similiar.
Accuracy and consistency is top notch. Best spin achieved during medium
to medium high paced shots. Not a power looper rubber since it gets
close bottoming. Sound is also very good. Starts "clicking" right away.
Glue feel is quite similiar to med-soft Tensors.
Overall speed is quite similiar to Baracuda. Maybe a
bit faster during slower strokes due to more bouncy nature.
Blocking is very very good. With a stiff fastish blade
like TBS, many winners can be achieved.
I can say it's amazingly easy rubber to play with.
Anyone looking for a soft (not extreme like Big Slams) grippy rubber
this may be the answer. Sound and feel really adds some joy when using
this rubber. Controlled loopers will probably love it. But don't be
fooled by the name. It's not a more powerful version of the regular
Hexer.
