Can I get some feedback on these rubbers in campirson? I use both and enjoy both, both feel similar to me.

I cannot compare them I just think the Mantra M has amazing grip for spinning the ball. It is still not too affected by incoming spin, and yet I am hitting loops that really give opponents problems. Fairly direct in blocks and pushes. Harder than I usually play, but I am playing so well with it I can't stopWink

Mantra M is definitely grippier and more linear. All in all it is a lot like EL-S.

EL-P is a bit faster if I recall right.

But I am not surprised that tou are happy with either one. Both are really good.

I changed from EL-P to Mantra M.
They are a similar hardness and the top sheets have a similar feel and semi glossy look. 
EL-P is slightly heavier, very slightly faster and has quite a bit more catapult.
I prefer the Mantra for blocking and pushing, but they are both good rubbers.

Is Mantra flat when unpacking ?
As I can see from some pictures , the edges are upwards. 
Tenergy and new ESN rubbers are completely flat , like liquid.

Both Mantra S and Mantra M are pretty much flat, I haven't tried the H.

They are flat. 
But are they flat and flexible like fabric (eg Tenergy) ?

I can't say that I have noticed Tenergy being like fabric, but I would say that Mantra is just as flexible.
