Xiom Yans DF?
« on: November 03, 2007, 07:25:35 PM »
Supachop, I know you use this rubber and according to rob, you are very happy with it, correct?

I'm trying to tempt some of my team mates to give this rubber a go, so could you compare it to a well known rubber, like BTY Tackiness C, Geospin Tacky, Juic Spinspiel SV or something similar?

I'm also tempted to try this out my self, but currently I'm awaiting a delivery of JUIC 999 Elite Nano which could be the perfect match for me, I sure do hope so.

Speedplay, Yes i use this rubber and yes, i am happy with it. I would not call this a defensive rubber as it is reasonably fast. It is similar to Plasma 380. It is fairly soft and very spinny. It is a hard rubber to describe. It is a loopers rubber that is very easy to chop with. When you chop, it is very safe,can chop heavy or float. And at the same time lot of power and spin when you attack.  Xiom advertising for this rubber is correct, what they say, it does.

Is there any tack on this rubber or is it more like the Tackiness C that has almost no tack, but has just crazy grip?

It does sound a lot like the tackiness C or D, which I believe are great rubbers, so thats not a bad thing. Like Skippy I wonder, is there any real tack to the rubber?

Your cant compare Yanus DF to Tackiness C or D. It is much faster. The topsheet is not tacky. It is high grip.
