Sinus Alpha (Tibhar)

Sinus Alpha (Tibhar)

SINUS ALPHA possesses a softer sponge and develops especially during a passive game its strengths, because it provides even better control. It is not as fast as its harder twin; however it transmits during fast topspins and blocking balls unequalled precision. Balls played with this rubber have a longer and evenly curved trajectory, putting even more pressure on the opponent. TIBHAR SINUS ALPHA is the ideal rubber for players looking for unlimited dependability, in addition to acceleration.

The tibhar sinus alpha rubber is tensor that is a softer version of teh regular sinus. It is not extremely fast offensive rubber, but it is still considered a offensive rubber. The speed is very average, but the rubber is good for creating spin. So, it is pretty good for looping very spinny shots, but i personally feel that it just does not allow for really fast loops that i like. But the control is really good for a attacking rubber. It is a great rubber for blocking. You can position and control the depth of blocks very good, not to mention that it is also really good for counterlooping. This is a good rubber for people who like to control offensively.

The tibhar sinus alpha rubber is a very good tensor rubber.
The glue effect feel is good and lasts pretty long,the sound is not really there ,the rubber needs some practice to get full control but once you do it has enough control. Its a pretty fast rubber and you can give lots of spin and effect with it, blocking and pushing is no problem either, overall a very good rubber for the modern attacker our looper but no rubber for a slower player at all
