Disclaimer:
I hated Rasanter I loved the thick top sheet original, plain Rasant. I loved the high throw and the monster spin and medium Sponge of Rasant. I loved how strong Rasant makes service spin. Is there a thicker top sheet Evolution that feels and plays similar?
Thanks!

Icontek: Try both Evolution MX-S and EL-P. I found these came very close to playing characteristics of the Rasant series rubbers you mentioned. Except the MX-S doesn't last as long |

Thank you. My gut instinct was that EL-P would be similar. I was wondering about MX-S though. The original Rasant has a thick topsheet and amazing durability, so the comments about MX-S are a bit of a turnoff :( Edited by icontek - 10/12/2020 at 8:59pm |

Forgot to mention I am a fan of the original Rasant series too - especially the Grip and Powergrip. Not thrilled about Rasanter series. Give the MX-S a try, you just might like even though it doesn't last as long. It's performance that counts. Then you might get hooked. This and the EL-P are in your wheelhouse ![]() Edited by Snakefish - 10/12/2020 at 11:58pm |

Stick to Andro.
Hexer powergrip and powergrip sfx are the same as rasant...

I will go the EL-P route. Decided the MX sponge seemed a bit much, so ordered a sheet of EL-S as well.
I didn't know about Hexer powergrip - that looks harder than Rasant - Hexer powergrip SFX looks softer. Perhaps Andro Hexer Grip (matches the 45 sponge) would be ideal? |

I agree with ELS, mxs feels harder.

Maybe Hexer Grip is the best solution. Hardness is 45° and some people said that the Hexer Powergrip/Grip series are more or less the old Rasant.
