I just started using R47 and V47 and I'm impressed I mount them in ZJK Blade and now I have a TT pistol. jajajaja fast and accurate is like I hit a jackpot.

Tried it for my forehand.
Im a strong looper, flicks and very spinny serves. I came from DHS hurricane 3 on my FH.
Comparing, this has much more speed without effort(catapult), can be very spinny when brushing, arc is good enough for me. Serves are kinda hard as Im not used to hybrid rubbers, but it can generate good spin (not as spinny as hurricane) short game is also harder to control, hurricane was super good, this is just too bouncy and sensitive sometimes. I tried it on my BH and also loved the feeling that it gave me, so im thinking of getting a nittaku fastarc G1 for my FH instead.

Second best rubber I've ever used, second only to the Yinhe Mercury 2, great for forehand and backhand, I highly recommend it for offensive players
Awesome rubber ... I used it for forehand ... Good speed and spin ... Amazing feeling for the ball ... Sounds great ... For backhand I felt it little too fast ( I m not that good with bh ) . I was unable to control the balls while spinning with bh ... A really good fh I would say
It is an amazing forehand rubber. Everyone should try it. It has great spin and everything
je suis un pongiste marocain qui joue plus de 8 ans et je jouais avec cette lame pendant 3 ans.
ma conclusion c'est un magnifique caoutchouc l'Andro Rasanter R47 pour les attaques prs de la table et Mi-long est que il y a beaucoup de contrle et de spin ,assure tous les coups on se sent en scurit totale et on peut faire toute genre de service.

I switched to R47 from Andro GTT 45; though I haven't used this on my FH much, the catapult effect from this rubber makes every BH shot a potential winner.
I used R47, FH on a ZLC Hinoki, Stuor CPH blade, I think it is fair to compare this R47 to R50 & V42 that I used recently. R50 was fast, spiny & aggressive, a real offensive rubber compared to R47, which is a bit lower in every gears. Most of all is in durability, definitely not as good as R50. I used the R47 for about 2 months & 8-10 hrs/week, it showed signs of wearing already but not the R50. The V42 is again slower in every departments but really light in wt.
Best forehand rubber I have ever used. And it's still working perfectly after almost one year.
Boosting works really well for this rubber. Very fast. Very good serves and a "controled catapult effect". Topsheet is thinner so felling is really good. Without boosting arc is very low and for me is dificult to lift underspin. If one doesn't mind to boost the rubber every week and reglue it...i doubt there's a better rubber than this one
Goma excesivamente rpida, solo recomendado para jugadores expertos que busquen velocidad a tope, para nada recomendado para jugadores de medio a bajo nivel, esta goma no perdona a nadie, es mucho mas controlable jugando desde atrs, y ni se te ocurra intentar colocar a la pelota, ya que esta goma requiere si o si de topspin para meter las pelotas, incluso si intentas golpear suave con esta goma la pelota va demasiada rpida, una goma exigente y exclusivo para jugadores ultra ofensivos de gran nivel.
Great rubber! But you need to play at least 3-4 hour to open all benefits. Weight for 157x150 is 48 gr. Black 2.0. I played this rubber on BH Yasaka Ma Lin Carbon and Andro Novacell Off. R47 is very grippy - quite fast but less then T05 - produce a lot of spin - more stable then T05 in pushes - strongly recommended!
The feeling is not 47 degrees but more 42-43 degrees. The throw angle is medium. Good rubber but not for me.
I put this rubber on my Stiga Allround Classic Blade. It is one of the best looping rubbers I have ever used. Great dwell time and lots of spin. The large amount of spin gives lots of safety and a good arc when top spinning. Pretty good on backhand as well. Great rubber. Will definitely buy again
9.5/10 for OFF style. FH: Donic Bluefire M1, 2.2mm, 50g (0.246g/cm^2), 47.5 degrees (ESN), 37.5 degrees (Shore A). BH: Andro Rasanter R47, 2.3mm, 51g (0.249g/cm^2), 47 degrees (ESN), 37 degrees (Shore A). Blade: TSP Balsa 8.5, 80g, 157mm x 150mm x 10.5mm (Width x Height x Thickness). Plies: 5 (3 Wood + 2 Composite): Ayous - GlassFibre - Balsa - GlassFibre - Ayous.
I used this rubber in a 2 mm thick forehand. I would like to compare it with Tibhar aurus prime. The sponge of rasanter is slightly softer than the aurus prime. the ball enters the sponge slightly. A little easier to play with rasanter. In terms of spin, the two rubbers are similar. but coping with the plastic ball is easier with the aurus prime. Because Aurus is more powerful. It is also more stable and easy with smash throw aurus. difficult to decide between two rubbers
Fore me one of the best universal rubbers . Not for beginner's, only players with well fitting stroke and position game can use whole potential and control it. Rubber is more forgiving than my other favourits (Fastarc G-1 and Aurus Prime). Is working well on any blade and I can use it on both sides. I mostly prefer on BH. Will use it next season round on TSP Balsa 6.5.
I think this rubber is just for rotations. The Powerful of 47 is not very good, when we go very strong in the ball, she goes down into the rubber. The feeling to the touch is 42. The throw angle is medium, not "medium high", we must (still) to rup the ball in the topspin. So, this rubber is definitely different to the T05, playing flat is hard with R47.
Nice rubber. Most people see this rubber as the best one out of all the rasanter R/V. I'm a penholder and used this on my backhand. very good control, above decent speed (some say like tenergy but i think tenergy is a bit faster with less control), little too soft for my taste (not super soft i just like harder rubbers). backhand flicks are nice and have power and spin. But I find the r50 version better for my taste a little harder feel, and i can get really explosive backhands.
I've had this rubber for 3 months now Fast Rubber. Good for chopping, blocking and counter attacking. Using an ALC carbon blade, I have problem looping underspin in this rubber and when it goes in, it doesnt have a lot of spin which i struggle because im a heavy looper. Spin drive is a beauty in this rubber. Sometime its hard to control. Overall Great rubber. wont recommend if you like using soft rubbers (37*) I tried my teammates 37 and what a difference. You can feel the ball in R37 and know upon contact if the ball is going in or not. R47 does not have that feeling.
This is my first rubber as a beginner. I played with this rubber for over a year. It was ok at the beginning but as I progress I find this rubber to be inadequate or maybe it just got worn out. The flick doesn't have enough grip and power.
It took some time to adapt from R37 to R47 but if you know how to use it it's a monster. Good in touch play and fast play close to the table and mid distance. Smashes are very easy to do.
not sure if i got the original product. The top sheet of the rubber lost grip within 3 weeks of playing. I was playing about 12 hours a week!
Ratings for 2.3mm. Easier to play with than R50. On par with tenergy, but much cheaper.
The rubber is fast and can be hard to handle. The only reason I gave it a 4.5 is bc it doesn’t generate a great deal of spin on the serve. Other than that the rubber is wonderful. Fast, it will spin like crazy if you have your technique down. I’m coming from Rising Dragon and this rubber is taking me a min to adjust to. But once you dial it the fun begins..
Been using on my FH, max thickness, for a couple of weeks. First impressions are that this rubber is incredible. going from a warn out Evolution EL-S to a brand new R47, I was amazed at how much spin could be generated with a rubber like this one. Speed is fast, it is sensitive to incoming spin and has a medium-hard feel. For me, this rubber weighed 47g cut. In conclusion, this rubber is an excellent choice. UPDATE: after 7 months this rubber is still very good. After the rubber was broken in, readjusting to the softer feel is necessary and once you get used to the new feel, this rubber is top quality.
Sin duda alguna la mejor goma que he tenido.
Gomas probadas: Andro Good, Nittaku Amin, Nittaku Factive, Yasaka Rakza 7, DHS Hurricane 3, Xiom Omega VII Euro... Esta goma no parece de dureza 47... es como la Rasanter R42 pero con mucha ms velocidad y giro. No hay problema en controlarla. Un amigo la tiene en una madera Stiga Rosewood muy dura, debido a su altsima velocidad es mucho ms complicado su control.
La recomiendo en una madera de dureza media. Te encantar!

I used the Rasanter R47 for close to a month now and this is such a high quality rubber. It is a heavy and fast rubber with great control and good enough spin on top spin shots. I am an aggressive player who normally looks to loop the first ball back to the opponent and this rubber generates spin with a lot of speed even on slow controlled loops. Chopping is alright and is responsive whenever i have to play it. What has impressed me the most beyond my shots is the amount of spin i am now able to generate on my serves than before. The rubber shines well in counter top spin situations and i was also surprised at how much control i had on my blocks as well. Overall, a great rubber i can recommend to advanced players who are looking to switch to tensor rubbers anytime soon. Also this rubber is better paired on Allround or Offensive Carbon ply woods. I use this on an Andro Treiber CI Off blade for my Forehand.
I HAVE TRIED MANY RUBBERS, BUT THIS IS MY FAVORITE FOR MY BACKHAND AND I WILL BUY IT AGAIN WITHOUT THINKING.
Grippy rubber from Andro, who seems to do very good rubbers the last 5 yers. Anyway, Fantastic. My current fh-rubber. New technology with thicker sponge and thinner surface. Fast as a horse, and spinny as a hell. Maybe the spinniest rubber i have played with. Like a 10-times speedglued Adidas P7! Buy!
Ideal for forehand and backhand. Good speed and spin. Stands up to vigorous play. Very durable. Recommended for all types of play.
Played since 1983 and tried them all:)
This is a keeper! Play it on a Temper Tech ALL blade and 2.0 thickness.
Very comfortable rubber with all kinds of strokes. Easy and natural to switch from loop to flat hard hit with Good control.
Gives very good spin when serving.
Probably the best i have played. Beats the overpriced Tenergy aswell.

Very bad experience. It was very hard and has 2 cracks after just 3 days of play. This is the first time I am using this rubber, and WILL not be playing with it. No idea why this rubber is so popular. It is as if I got a rubber from a VERY old stock, possibly that is why it is on sale and reason for its hardness.
Megaspin edit: The rubber was fresh stock but we understand that the rubber tore too easily on impact with a hard surface. The customer was compensated with store credit.

The best rubber i have played with. I have tried 126 rubbers and 53 blades during 9 years. Took 4-5 times to tame the bastard, but now we are one!
Switched from the Rasant Grip since I needed to replace my old one and they stopped making it. So I went with the R47 based on a few reviews and it was the right choice. This is much spinnier than the grip and the throw angle is a little higher. My powerloops were dropping closer in on the table and some of my usual opponents had a way harder time returning my shots and even commented on the increase in spin. Doing my usual serves I could clearly see results from the increase in spin as well. I dont think the speed on smashes, drives, etc is much better than the grip, probably just about the same. There is less catapult than the grip based on some passive blocks I did to test but still enough to get balls over the net with some pace if you ever needed to. I use the R47 2.3 max on FH on my Andro Ligna Off blade. I use V47 in 2.3 max on BH. But I might switch to R47 on BH as well based on how it handles.
Impresionante la velocidad y giro que tiene esta goma para el juego cerca y a mitad de la mesa, yo la uso con un marco yasaka Extra Offensive y una goma Tibhar
Great rubber but not without faults. I've gone through about 4 sheets now. The speed isn't as fast as expected but pretty good. Spin is also very good. But I think there is a lot of hype over this rubber. Compared to T05 it's pretty close as far as performance goes. However, there are variation in quality. It occasionally creates very low throw angle forcing the ball straight into the net. I've never felt this in other 20+ rubbers I've used including MX-P, EL-P, T05, etc. My former pro coach also mentioned this as well. He felt as if there is some kind of defect to the rubber. He has tried 3 of my sheets and all of them had the same issue. Maybe I got unlucky and got a defective batch but it is what it is. I've used 3 sheets of V47 as well and the issue remains the same.

Great rubber. I play this both sides on my off blade. Serves have good spin, topspins are fast with good spin, the curve on the ball off my forehand is very noticeable and in faster shots, I can keep pushes short and decently spinny if I want, or I can push deep. Backhand flicking is not great but it's okay. My main complaint is forehand flicking. Since I upgraded from R42 my flicks never land, the spin always affects it too much. But otherwise a fantastic rubber, definitely recommend to any medium level player who wants to step up their topspin/offensive game or to a high level player looking for a good rubber with control without sacrificing speed or spin.
I'm a modern defender who attacks when possible, so I'm looking for a rubber that is fast and spinny, has a good short game, and pushes and chops well.
This rubber does all of those. I'm used to Ten 64. This is not that different, except feel. Topsheet is hardish and so is sponge.
It has the short game of Hurricane 3. Ball does not pop up, like with other tensors or Tenergy 05.
Pushing and chopping is very linear. No surprising pop ups. Nothing else sticks out about this rubber to me. It just seems to do everything quite well.

Definitely an upgrade of power grip. Rocket fast, quite spinny and lots of control. Best rubber I ever played with.
I am not fanatic of any particular brand. And I try all products I am a Spin Lover. The Rasanter 47 is an exceptional product it has high bounce power and really fast (fAST Enough to enable hard topspin). i play like 3-4 times a week with this rubber and consistency is very good. Overall I will keep using this rubber . thanks
This rubber is faster than the tenergy series and the spin that can be generated is more or less the same. The only discernible difference is that tenergy has a sharper feeling of contact when hitting the ball and reacts more violently against spin. However, the rasanter compensates for this with a little more control. Not sure why so many intermediates waste their money on tenergy when they could get something equally as good at half the price.
Perfect Forehand rubber for Topspin lovers. Doesn't get out of control and can Spin like a MONSTER. This rubber has gone way past T05, MXP or the likes,
Just dont pair it with extreme hard blades. Durability is also good.

A friend told me to try the new Andro Rasanter. Since then I am in love with it. The Ultramax sponge is Amazing. Thanks to its 2.3mm the Spin that I can generate is HUGE. Very fast rubber so if you have to learn a bit to control it. The ball throw is also higher as this is New rubber for the 40+ BALL. But trust me This Rubber is a Killer for the remaining top Spin rubbers!
This one is hard to review, but for the first 4 weeks it's great (spin, speed, feel). Then by the fifth week you can start to feel the decline (a little less spin/speed/feel) and gets progressively worse in the following weeks. I mean it's not unplayable, but it's just not enjoyable. So if you have the money, it's great. But too rich for my blood. It could be that I'm used to playing with rubbers months on end. I could replace TG2 Neo 2 or 3 times a year and be happy throughout (though it clearly does not have the speed of R47).
Before i was using tibhar mxp and andro powergrip. Rasanter R47 is faster than powergrip and has more control i would give it a 9.0 for control. i feel more dwell time with it than the mxp and more spin than both mxp and powergrip. Really good forehand rubber but for my play style i prefer cornilleau target pro H47 on the backhand because the control in this rubber is the best with a high arc.
A miracle has happened. The R47 can just do about anything From Mind blowing Spins to Blocking. I will continue using this on my Treiber Z.
Pretty good rubber that can do it all. The durability is much than the reported 5.8 here. I was afraid that the durability is very low as reported, but it turns out to be OK.
The V47 and the R47 a distinction or 2 from each other which is speed and spin. The V47 being the faster one and it is very bouncy. I can compare the speed at the level of a TIbhar MX-P but the V47 feels like a much more firm than Aurus. The V47 is purely more on hitting, smashing, counter driving. I would choose Counter driving as its best asset and this is medium to far distance from the table. It is easier to counter with this version than the R47 because it has lesser spin sensitivity and very fast speed. I could put it in par with MX-P or Joola Rhyzm 48 in terms of speed with spin slightly lower. The R47 however has it all – spin, speed, control. I think even without the V47, the R47 will still be preferred by more players since it has more spin and it can almost do everything the V47 can do. The R47 is good both inside and far from the table. You can flick well with it and do drop shots while maintaining control. V47 = 68grams ; R47 = 69grams
Ich hatte im Rahmen eines Trainingscamps die Gelegenheit den R47 zu testen. An dieser Stelle will ich mich nochmals herzlichst fr diese Mglichkeit bedanken, es sei jedoch versichert, dass dies keinen Einfluss auf meinen Testbericht hat den ich so objektiv wie mglich halten mchte.
Nun zum Testbericht:
Mein eigentliches Material ist ein El-s (rh) und ein T05fx (vh) auf einem Firefall fc. Wie sich schnell herausstellte, ist der R47 dem El-s hnlicher als gedacht, weshalb ich hier einige Vergleiche ziehen mchte.
Der Ballabsprung ist eher im oberen Bereich angesiedelt, man kann beim ts schon sehr stark nach vorne ziehen. Hier habe ich keine nennenswerten Unterschied zum El-s festgestellt. Der Katapult ist vorhanden, jedoch ausgewogen, auch bei passiven Schlgen hat man hier keinen groen Kontrollverlust. Vom Ballanschlag her ist der R47 vom El-s kaum zu unterscheiden. Man sprt das Eintauchen des Balles und wie dieser vom elastischen Obergummi wieder herauskatapultiert wird, insgesamt macht er aber einen kompakten Eindruck.
Das Tempo des R47 wrde ich klar im Off Bereich ansiedeln, er bleibt jedoch bei voll durchgezogenen Schlgen etwas hinter dem El-s und auch dem 05fx zurck. Das Obergummi empfand ich als recht griffig und vom Spin her konnte ich hnliche Ergebnisse wie mit dem El-s erzielen.
Kontrolle: Wie bereits angesprochen verfgt der R47 ber ein sprbares Ma an Katapult, dies kommt einem beim ts auf Block etwas untersttzend zu Gute aber auch beim kurz-kurz und beim Blocken hatte ich immer eine gute Kontrolle ber die Lnge.
Fazit: Alles in allem meiner Meinung nach ein gelungener und ausgewogener Belag mit groer hnlichkeit zum El-s. Ich werde aber bei meiner alten Kombi bleiben da ich mit dieser eigentlich sehr zufrieden bin und derzeit keinen nennenswerten Mehrwert in einem Materialwechsel sehe.
Abschlieend mchte ich mich nochmals fr die tolle Trainingswoche bedanken!

Amazing rubber, Im using Ultramax with a nittaku accoustic blade, great feeling control, compare to many rubber I have tried its the best, not as bouncy as tenergy so much better control same spin, using it on forehand or backhand good vs heavy spin, you can even chop some ball it's true that's not and easy rubber to use like a mark V but it boost your game a lot, yo can play it on forehand or backhand with no problem at least on the acoustic maybe the rating of very very fast is on carbon blades, durability jet to review
Bought Rasanter R47 ultramax thickness, it is a very fast rubber with great control, heavier than R42 as expected, sponge hardness is just right. Passive + active block is great, I struggle with BH flick. Loop with this rubber is very nice with medium arc trajectory.
Very good update of the Rasant Grip: the rubber has more power and the spin is very strong in topspin and serves too. Very good control in every shots, amazing countertopspin, pushes and short returns. No for beginners....
UPDATE 18/06/17: I love this rubber but the durability is very poor, after 30-40 days you have to change it if you have sessions training of 7-8 hours for a week. I think I'll go for Donic Bluestorm Z1 or Z2 or DHS Gold Arc 8. UPDATE 16/07/18: I tried Rasanter R50, if you are able to play with a harder rubber this is the perfect choice. The spin is higher than R47, throw angle lower, but very high durability compared with R47.

Some of us like myself who played back when the ball was 30mm remember the 2.5 sponge. So when I heard that this rubber had a thinner top but thicker sponge (2.3), I wanted to try it out. Previously, I was using Bluefire M2. One thing I noticed right away while using different plastic balls, there wasn't much of a difference like there was with the M2. The feeling was great! I could feel the ball grip into the sponge. I felt I had more control. Yes, it's fast, especially when you use a very fast blade like I do. But, I could play blocks more aggressively. Even counter topspins were amazing with this rubber. It worked great against pips players as well. While playing an attacker, he served it fast with pretty good underspin for that amount of speed, but when I returned it, I felt the grip, and it returned it very low and fast with good spin so good in fact, my opponent was so surprised. This doesn't mean that the rubber is good for the chopping game away from the table. If you are a modern chopper, this would be great for your offense. In general, this rubber is great for offensive and all-around players who want to put pressure on your opponents and able to defend if their opponents put pressure on them. :) Best rubber ever that I have tried so far!
My review is based on comparison with Andro Grip. Nice update, really faster. Every aspect of the game has been improved: Speed, Spin (Feel like playing with C-ball and make points with my serve...), throw angle (little higher), short game easy, good blocks... Except for the passive shots! If you're out of position and expect this rubber to do the trick, that won't happen... You have to PLAY all the points, otherwise it's really difficult to control this one. That's why i'm rating less control than the Rasant Grip. And I don't rate durability for now. But i trust Andro for this...
Great attacking rubber but it is very fast and lacks control if you have a game that is not based on constant offense. Not sure why people are giving this 9 out of 10 control, that is a joke... Not a rubber for beginners and even intermediate players will struggle to contain this beast.
Very nice forehand rubber. I will test it more and write a review soon. If you have any questions just ask. I can say that i like it more than EL-S and MX-S on forehand. On backhand i am totally statisfied with the MX-S.
