External Review for Tibhar Nimbus on December 13, 2019

Uncontrollable rubber.

One of the fastest (9.7) for me.
But with an unpredictable and unpleasant catapult effect so that control is under average.

-> No sponge. Just an entry level elastic caoutchouc.

Strengths : smashes, tops
Weaknesses : cuts, blocks, loops...

Price is not justified: 10$ for me

Excellent rubber for fast game, nice spin speed, excellent control. I read somewhere that it is not so good for short game, but I didn't find any problem in the short game. A really nice rubber for offensive game.

I think this rubber has a lot of spin (just put some WD40 on the sponge and rubber surface when you feel that the rubber loses its spin (you can try this also on other rubbers !!!)
pushing short is very difficult , very good for looping and smashing , can also block , very good rubber for attacking style of play, if you hit the ball right you can produce really monstrous balls with it, not suited for beginners , sometimes the ball just shoots away like a rocket, some click sound when you hit the ball right

This is one off the fastest rubbers i ever had, it's a good one for your bh, but it's uncontrollable for your fh.

Fast rubber good for blocks and smashes. Looping is harder as the sponge is stiff. Agreed that short game suffers, not spinny enough during pushes.

If you feel tenergy is heavy this rubber is for you. I have tried everything from bryce to magna without the speed glue this rubber is the prfection in itself, speedy but not uncontrolable, spiny but not tacky, countering blocking is amazing the best of all. But do not use it more than one month and a half if you are a professional.

Currently using it as a FH rubber. Speedlooping underspins resulting in massive spin feels amazingly easy. Played BH with it, speed was incredible with control and spin, especially from mid-distance. Blocks and drives like a beast. Playing with it for 3 months now, still has good speed and control, with spin lacking a bit. Still a good rubber. I would advise fast movers with controlled-aggression game to use it. Very versatile.

External Review for Tibhar Nimbus on May 22, 2009

A very fast looping rubber. It feels like only half the effort is needed to get the same speed with a regular rubber. Sponge is advertised as 45 degrees but feels considerable softer when looping. Short game however suffers. Basically any shot that requires a lot of dwell time suffers. The ball sinks into the sponge and then is immediately ejected. If not timed correctly short touch shots will pop up. Is faster than Tenergy 05, not as spinny as Tenergy 05, but still spinny. This rubber wears out very quickly. I had it for about 1.5 months and afterwards the glue effect wore off. No more click, less spin, less speed. This rubber is great during the first month, but wears out too quickly
