External Review for Tibhar Quantum X Pro Soft on April 15, 2023

When I tried the regular X pro, I thought it was a good rubber, but nothing impressive (look at my review of the X pro). It was a bit too hard to my taste, so I thought the X pro soft would be a better choice.
But surprisingly, it's even worse. Usually, softer sponge means better control, right? Here the soft version is slower, but doesn't actually give more control or more feeling. It's as if the rubber was totally muted. Slow, heavy, no feeling, poor control, average spin. I just don't like it.

External Review for Tibhar Quantum X Pro Soft on December 18, 2022

This is a fast rubber with a lot of spring, with a fairly soft sponge and reasonable topsheet grip. I could grab the ball decently through brushing but I needed to really work it to produce a lot of spin this way, the majority of the spin that this rubber can produce is by mechanically sinking the ball into the sponge- this is easy to achieve however, because the rubber is soft you don't need to use as aggressive a stroke as you would with a harder rubber in order to get the sponge to compress. Most importantly this rubber is very fast, playing off the table requires little effort to send back a fast ball, while looping and driving it produces a straight direct arc. I felt that the ball is ejected fairly quickly from the rubber but the soft sponge makes it reasonably forgiving for how fast it is. I also found it to be fairly bouncy in the short game as well as noticeably spin sensitive when playing passively, especially during service receive and soft blocking, and I would say that this rubber suits an active attacker who focuses on speed and placement at all ranges without as much need for spin. It felt reasonably usable on the forehand but my backhand really loved it for the ease of generating raw speed
