I am starting this thread since the older reviews about Calibra LT/LT+ were about a year old at least and none were involving their performance with poly balls. I had tried Calibra LT back in 2013 on my Nittaku Violin and i loved its feeling but less spin potential with older celluloid balls however with my ALC ( Viscaria ) & new poly balls - all i gotta say is feeling is exactly same however need to add that with the new poly balls this rubber plays much more efficient and well behaved . All Calibra users please chip in their thoughts... ------------- ZJK SZLC |5Q+ |

| I use Calibra LT Spin on a clipper wood and I have been training with the polyball for 2 months now. I don't think Calibra plays better with the poly balls, it's still lacking the spin potential of other rubbers like rakza, tenergy or bluefire. The feel is great tho and I like it just as much as with the old ball. |

Nice data to know that Calibras LT will still be ok with P-balls. I really wonder how do the calibras tour play with the P-ball. The topsheet is so special (no grip when you touch it)...... ------------- Mizutani sZLC / T05fx / T05fx |

Indeed that was my intention in starting this topic . We all know every manufacturer but butterfly are making all kind of new rubbers and selling to us saying it's for New Polyballs however some of the pre poly rubbers like Calibra LT series are still good and sometimes better due to their characteristics of Speed over spin. ------------- ZJK SZLC |5Q+ |
