The andro quad 480 has a medium hard sponge and is pretty fast.
The spin is not very good and I would say that this rubber would fit a backhand best since its very good for blocking , chopping is ok with it to although it does not have a lot of grip.
The rubber seems a bit fragile and I don

Andro quad 480 rubber is a very hard, pretty heavy weighted rubber. It is one of the hardest tensor rubbers that Andro makes. But i like it very much.

it is very fast and spinny at the same time. The hard sponge causes your loops to feel very solid and explosive, while they are really fast and spinny. The control is also not bad for such a hard sponge. I thought that it was extremely good for looping and counterlooping. i could make some killer loops with it. It was actually also pretty good for blocking than i thought. I could block the shots and place them quite easily. I highly suggest advanced players to try this rubber.
