Andro Rasant Turbo
Rubber description:
The Andro Rasant Turbo is a tensor rubber characterized by a high-speed, dynamic performance and a notably low throw angle. Featuring a highly porous green sponge paired with a grippy, non-tacky topsheet, it is designed for offensive players who prioritize speed and powerful topspin loops. Its performance is most effective when paired with stiffer, non-vibrating blades, which help stabilize the rubber’s reactive nature and maximize power.
Performance Characteristics
- Spin and Speed: The rubber offers high speed and significant spin potential, particularly when executing aggressive loops from mid-to-far distance. Because the topsheet is grippy rather than sticky, it requires a fast, brushing stroke and precise timing to fully engage the sponge.
- Dwell Time and Feel: Due to its construction, the rubber provides a relatively short dwell time. Users may require a break-in period to adapt to its specific rebound effect and lower arc, which demands a more open blade angle compared to traditional tacky rubbers.
- Control and Versatility: While highly effective for offensive maneuvers like powerful flicks, aggressive blocking, and counter-looping, it is not a forgiving rubber. It demands disciplined footwork and advanced technique, as it can be sensitive to setup and arm speed. Close-to-the-table play, such as short pushing or touch shots, requires a high level of skill to manage the rubber’s bounce and lack of surface tack.

Low throw rubber, now out of production. Its throw is low, similar to the Acuda S1 Turbo. Compared to the S1 Turbo, it is less spinny, but very fast. This rubber excels in aggressive blocking, producing a very low arc. However, it may lack sufficient grip for forehand play, especially with backspin. It is possible to use it for forehand with an open blade angle, but the grip may still be insufficient for some players.

Very good for backhand.
Very easy to get power and a lot of topspin.

Tested on the Treiber Q. The ball doesn’t run, it sprints, giving me excellent speed when combined with the Treiber.
