I ve been using nimbus for about a month now, just loving it, play 2/3 times a week, let's see how long it will last but me thinks me next rubber will be nimbus as well, in my new blade i mean. Used to use Bryce PS before.

Size is 15.8 x 15 cm (Stiga blade size and max sponge). So its even a bit heavier than h3 and bryce. Coppa Gold is similar to Nimbus.


What are you writing there? Nimbus is not heavy. It is one of the lightest rubbers. Don't compare it with H3, because H3 is one of the heavier rubbers. And Coppa Gold is not similar to Nimbus. What you write here is completely wrong.

BTW: Nimbus can generate spin, of course, if you powerloop. But you can hardly generate softloops with it. It has not much gears. It is a good rubber for counter hitting, driving, smashing. For variable loopers
it is the wrong rubber.

I've given it a try and i don't care for it.  It's way too soft and the throw angle is super high.  I'm not saying it's a bad rubber but it sure as heck didn't fit my style of play

I played with Nimbus for a long time. played 10-12 hours a week and it lasted 5-6months, both sheets. Best tensor and speed glue effect rubber i have ever played with. Kept the speed and spin up untill 5months, then it started to lose its grip a bit but the speed was still there. Needed to clean with water now and then but after 6months defo needed changing.
 
The Nimbus Series is absolutely amazing, great quality and durability and it does what it says. I have played with Nimbus, Nimbus Soft and Now playing with Sound.  The topsheets r a little thin but still they have the feeling they are all ment to have.  Nimbus probably has the most gears out of the 3 but it requirs better technique.
