Answer for equipment

Hey Deep, so I would say overall they are quite similar rubbers in all aspects such as speed spin and control. The biggest difference with the 09c is the way the ball kicks out of the rubber because of the more grippy and tacky surface. The arc is higher with the 09c compared to the 80 and I would say it’s very similar in terms of speed but a slightly different feeling. Blocking and topspin shots do take some getting used to as you really need to close the bat angle with the 09c but after adjustment it was no problem. Both very good rubbers for sure and the biggest difference would be the arc and the way the ball kicks out of the rubber more with the 09c.
