Impuls (Andro)

Impuls is manufactured using a modified Tensor formula and is therefore softer with a higher elasticity than traditional rubber. It absorbs energy when playing passively and releases energy when playing actively. All-round players would never have been able to control such a fast rubber before. Now they can. Slice or block or smash, the 30 degree soft sponge provides the right amount of absorption for every speed. When attacking with spin or smashing, this all-round Tensor construction produces power, resulting in greater ball velocity while making the ball fly more precisely like an all-round rubber.

Philosophy: control plus speed. Spin-offensive with speed-glue effect. Hardness: 1/5. Built-in speed-glue effect: 2/5.

Type: Inverted. Speed: 86/115. Spin: 103/109. Control: 90/95. Sponge hardness: 30.

The andro impuls rubber has a very soft sponge which makes it very easy to control.
It has a pretty low arc and is not really fast
You can push and chop with it very easily., you might have to get used to this rubber since its a pretty strange feel in the beginning ,it is a little bit bouncy but once you are used to it its ok,blocking is somewhat strange because of the bouncy feeling, spin is nice but not good enough in my opinion, hitting is ok to, I think it would suit a backhand best
