Joola Rhyzer 48 Review

Joola all the waaaay

Reviving an old thread here but Rhyzer 48 is one of the candidates on my next purchase. 

Yes Rhyzer 48 is very spinny on serves. Short pushes are not really easy to excecute since this rubber is really fast. I found that black sheet has more booster and feels firmer than red ones. But I only tested one black and 2 red sheets so this info might not be accurate. Topsheet of Rhyzer wears out quite quickly and that is a main reason I went back to Rasanter 47 which is a bit milder version of Rhyzer with better topsheet (imho). So if I were you I would start with Rasanter R47 since it is a quite safe bet. I have played through whole post speedglue era so it is possible that my memory doen’t serve me right tough:).

Thanks. I really hoped that you would answer differently. All those new generations ESN seem to have the same problem. I don't like the idea of reboosting every month, cause anyway it won't be the same

Out of topic: how long before the booster in MX-P is totally gone. Does that change dramatically the playing characteristics of this rubber? From what I understood the Rhyzer 48 changes after month or so

The rhyzer and rubbers of the same generation like z1, victas v15, have greater potential for speed and spin but theybseem to have less control due to speed.

Ooops, right. It was the Aurus Prime review. Shame on me

From what iv read so far I'm assuming that rhyzer48 has a low throw combined with a long trajectory right in comparison to mx-p's medium throw and medium trajectory while t05 has a high throw and a tight (short) trajectory.

That's a good comparison, I think you should add that at slower racket speed MX-P provides more and easy access to speed/spin

Pity to hear that cause the rubber isn't a cheap one

@Slevin. Do they smell the same?

I havnt tried the rhyzer and bluestorm yet, I was talking with reference to hype kr and thr rasanters. So you mean rhyzer topsheet is gripper than mx-ps? How abt bluestorm? And by grippy you mean it grabs the ball even at low impact speeds right?

A bit off topic here, but Im really loving aurus select on my bh, though I even liked it when I tried it on my FH, sure it's slow and feels kinda soft, but it gives you pretty good confidence to juat close your bat angle fully and loop drive even balls below net level witout having to worry abt it not grabbing the ball. Also curious if any of the other new gen rubbers have a transparenty and slightly tacky topsheet like the select. And wish there was a harder sponged version of the select.

The top sheets on these rubbers just don't grab the ball like mx-p, t05 etc, so we need to let the ball dig into the topsheet a bit more. Aurus prime to me feels the most like mx-p and t05 in this regard.

Another observation: I have less control in pushes / short game with the thin topsheet / thick sponge R48 (max) as opposed to with MX-P (max) or T05 (max). But that could just be due to lack of familiarity with this new rubber.
