Tibhar Quantum X Pro
Rubber description:
The Tibhar Quantum X Pro is a tensor rubber designed for modern, aggressive attacking play, particularly favored for use on the backhand side. It features a 47.5° medium-hard, medium-pored sponge paired with a thin topsheet and relatively short pimples. This construction delivers a fast, linear response with a prominent catapult effect, making it highly effective for players who utilize short, explosive movements near the table.
Playing Characteristics
- Speed and Power: The rubber provides high speed and energy transfer, facilitating fast blocks, accurate counter-attacks, and aggressive flicking.
- Spin and Dwell: It offers “on-demand” spin, allowing for both controlled spinny openings and high-speed topspins. The surface is not overly sensitive to incoming spin, which enhances consistency in the short game and blocking.
- Control and Trajectory: It is noted for its stability and precision. The ball trajectory is generally long, and the rubber provides a balanced feel that allows for reliable shot placement.
- Technical Requirements: Due to the prominent catapult effect and speed, this rubber performs best for players with established technique who can harness its offensive capabilities. It is well-suited for setups involving harder blades or outer-carbon compositions.
While highly effective for close-to-the-table play, its performance is most optimized when used on the backhand, where its ability to handle incoming spin and facilitate fast, stable counters shines. Players should note that the rubber’s responsiveness varies significantly with sponge thickness; thicker sponges are generally recommended to maximize speed potential without requiring excessive effort.

As an amateur player, I can confidently say that this is the best backhand rubber I have ever used. It provides a significant boost in confidence during play, particularly with topspins.
I highly recommend this rubber. I currently use it with the Petr Korbel Japanese version blade, and it has greatly enhanced my performance.

The Quantum X Pro has a 47.5° medium-hard, medium-pored cream-white sponge. The topsheet is thin and pimples are relatively short. Therefore, it is a modern rubber with the newest technology.
The energy transfer on the ball when hit is outstanding. It is very easy to play a fast ball with short movements. The Quantum X Pro is an excellent rubber for an aggressive game near the table and to put a lot of pressure on the opponent. I would recommend the Quantum X Pro for the backhand side. You can block and counter-attack very fast and precisely. The topsheet is not very sensitive to incoming spin. The trajectory of outgoing balls is quite long. The downside of this rubber is playing from half-distance and far from the table.
The Quantum X Pro is very fast and the catapult effect is prominent. Therefore, you need a good technique and decent playing level to handle this kind of rubber and to use its full potential. This rubber should mainly be used by good, aggressive players.
