I normally play a punch block/loop style thats close to the table for my backhand and wanted to try a different rubber. Ive heard that the Refoma was a great rubber and wondered if it would be wise to go from sriver FX 1.9 to refoma.

similar hardness (maybe a touch harder), faster.

Ma Long currently uses Refoma as his backhand rubber. If you watch the 2007 Chinese team triail, you will see his backhand improved a lot.

I think Reforma is very impressive. One of the biggest reasons I think it's one of the best rubbers out there is it's performance at any speed. Alot of jap/euro rubbers I feel perform great at high speeds, but they lack alot in the punching, pushing, and chopping. When someone trys to control you in a control game the Reforma is the best at being a very nice high control rubber all the way through at all speeds. I wish it had a hair bit more tack just for serves but other than that it's a very very versatile rubber. Does everything well.

I got a sheet of used Black 2.2 if you want to test it out. I can trade it for another rubber. I wrote a detailed review for this one on Haggisv's site.
