Helix Hybrid XH is the extra-hard option in the Helix Hybrid series, designed for players who attack with maximum power, extreme speed, and precise control. Featuring a 52.5-degree extra-hard sponge and a slightly tacky topsheet, this rubber rewards advanced technique with exceptional response and accuracy.
Its unique playing character comes from the combination of an explosive sponge inspired by the Helix Platinum series and an extra-grippy, slightly tacky surface. Together, they create a modern hybrid feel that blends the powerful response of European tensor rubbers with the control, spin, and ball feedback typically associated with hybrid rubbers.
The difference is noticeable from the very first rally. Close to the table, Helix Hybrid XH provides confidence, control, and excellent touch in the short game, serve receive, and opening shots. When you attack with full commitment or move farther from the table, the powerful sponge delivers explosive acceleration and high ball speed.
The slightly tacky topsheet increases grip on the ball, helping you produce more spin, a longer trajectory, and higher-quality offensive shots. This balance of grip and precision makes it easier to vary your play, put pressure on opponents with strong openings, and control the tempo during rallies.
H-Touch Tensor Technology ensures consistent speed and high precision in active strokes, while the Microcell Energy Sponge optimizes energy transfer for explosive acceleration and impressive ball speed.
Helix Hybrid is available in M, H, XH, and 55 hardness options, allowing players to choose the version that best matches their playing style and preference.
