I have Narucross EX soft 2.0 in both red and black. Red has harder top sheet than black, sponge softness is about 36-37. Very grippy top sheet, some glue sound, weight 56-59 grams uncut, I would say speed is comparable to F2. IMO, it's very good for BH, doesn't have any extraordinary properties, but doesn't have any weak point either. Don't know how long it last.

How does it play on the speed 90? Probably I would use this instead of Tenergy

It plays good for me, don't have any problem. However, IMO, it would be a lot softer than Tenergy and should be noticably slower. Anyway, it's more durable than Donic F-series.

http://www.tabletennismaster.com/blog/nittaku-rubbers/#more-46
The Nittaku brand has some great rubbers so I just thought I would give a few words about some good combinations and feelings of the rubbers for the intermediate-advanced offensive player. The Hammond line is a great set of rubbers. The Hammond X is a more advanced rubber that has a lower throw and does not hold the ball as well as some others.
Therefore it is a great smashing rubber with good topspin if you can control it. Good for close-to-the-table play. Better for forehand than backhand. The Narucross Ex hard and soft both have great throw degrees for far-from-the-table topspins. Great grabbing capabilities and in my view a nicer feel than the Hammond X, but many players prefer the Hammond X. The Nodias is a great rubber, both for backhand and forehand. Good spin and speed. The Moristo and Moristo 2000 both have great control, with the former having less speed and more spin and vice versa on the latter. A combination with the Moristo on backhand and Narucross Ex (hard or soft, depending if you want more speed or spin, respectively) on forehand would make a deadly combo. Likewise, the Nodias on both is great; or just on the backhand with Hammond on the forehand is good too. |
