Hi guys,

I'd like to know the differences between these 2 rubbers.
Heard that Energy X-tra was t�� soft so it hardly generated spin.
Loops and service with much spin are almost not possible with the Energy X-tra?

And what I heard about Plasma 430 is that it's good, much spin and nice speed, but the durability sucks.

So on a line:
Energy X-tra = good sound, bouncy = easy to loop, but not much spin, and hard to control at the short game.
Plasma = Good spin/speed, but bad durability.

So if we compare these 2 rubbers for spin-offensive game, based on spin as they both got enough speed, on offensive blades.
Which one will best to your opinion?

Please vote + explain with a short explanation/review, why you chose it

I have played Plasma 430 and Joola Energy (the original one, NOT the X-tra). They have similar spin and speed, but the Joola Energy is much more durable than Plasma 430.

i too am impressed with the impulse speed so far,very spinny and controllable,feels like you can`t miss,this is the best ball curve rubber  i have had on this blade,don`t get too thin or it bottoms out

I'm also trying to get Energy, either regular or Extra but not sure, its for my bh. I read lots of good reviews on both, the regular is more faster and Extra more spinnier. Anybody can give reviews would be a great help. Thanks.

Even though Joola is soft, it doesnt mean that it doesnt generate less spin. Whrd you hear that?
Ive tried Tango and its soft. And also one of the most spinniest tansion rubbers ive ever tried.

Hm, no I'm not saying that ALL SOFT RUBBERS IN GENERAL generate less spin. But when I was testing it I had w�y less spin; they're "harder" , but not easy to produce a huge amount of spin with it.
Although the spinning and looping is easy to do, I disliked the fact that my strokes didn't had that much spin.
And yes, now you can say haha it's probably your loop then, but no, I'm not the first one who says this.
