Hey there

Has anyone played these two rubbers? I am looking for in depth comparison between AK47 Red vs TinArc 3 H37 both in black.

I tried AK47Red and now I know exactly what I don't like about it (too bouncy).

Thanks

AK47 RED favors blades with low throw. I've had used this rubber on FH , with my H301 which inherently is a low throw, so compensates with the bounciness of the rubber and gives enough safety over the net. I've not played with TinArc 3 though (not a fan of tacky rubbers)

I had it FH on this blade https://revspin.net/blade/yasaka-sweden-extra.html" rel="nofollow - https://revspin.net/blade/yasaka-sweden-extra.html

Do you know if it's low throw blade or not? How would one figure out blade "throw" in general?

My opinion on low throw (subjective):

If the blade is stiff = Less dwell time = Less body rotation (snap the ball the instead) to compensate High throw

If the blade is flex = More dwell time = More body rotation to even out Low throw.

Throw angle factors varies from blade to blade.

I've found H301 having low throw due to the above reasons. I've moved on from Palio AK47 to Xiom vega euro on FH, as I've noticed that even though AK47 RED was bouncy, it was more direct and producing less arc on the ball. Where as Vega Euro is more consistent, producing higher arc.
