Key Performance Benefits
Spin-Heavy Forehand Attacks
The V>15 Sticky is the defining feature of the forehand side. Designed in collaboration with Benedikt Duda, it features a slightly tacky surface that grips the ball during contact, allowing for exceptional spin generation. It is highly effective for players who want to dominate the game through heavy opening loops and high-spin serves.
This side excels in:
- Generating heavy rotation against backspin balls.
- Executing precise, spin-oriented service games.
- Performing aggressive forehand loops and placement attacks.
- Maintaining stability during long-distance rallies.
Explosive and Direct Backhand
V>22 Double Extra on the backhand provides a contrasting, high-octane performance. Known for its incredible speed and "direct" feel, it is ideal for modern backhand techniques where punchy, fast, and aggressive play is required.
It supports:
- Quick, aggressive blocks that put opponents on the defensive.
- Fast backhand-to-backhand exchanges.
- Decisive backhand smashes and counter-topspins.
- Controlled yet high-speed backhand flicks and drives.
Professional-Grade Synergy
The combination of a stable, carbon-reinforced blade with these two high-performance, yet distinct, rubbers creates a balanced offensive system. The blade provides the reliability needed for professional play, while the rubbers allow the player to switch between the controlled, spin-oriented forehand and the blistering speed of the backhand.
Component Deep-Dive
The Blade: Victas Benedikt Duda
The Victas Benedikt Duda is an Aramid Carbon (AFC) offensive blade. It is built to offer the stability and power of a carbon blade while maintaining the feel and dwell time that allows for precise ball placement. It is the perfect choice for offensive players who prioritize high-speed attacks without sacrificing the "touch" required for delicate rallies.
Best suited for:
- Advanced and professional offensive players.
- Loop-drivers who demand stability and speed.
- Players looking for a professional-grade blade with high feedback.
The Forehand Rubber: V>15 Sticky
V>15 Sticky offers a modern take on the classic tacky rubber. It provides a superb balance between grip, tackiness, and dynamic rebound. When the player engages the sponge fully, the rubber becomes very fast, making it a comprehensive tool for both short-game manipulation and full-strength looping.
Best suited for:
- Forehand loops with heavy spin.
- Advanced service games.
- Players who prefer a grippy, tacky surface for better ball contact.
The Backhand Rubber: V>22 Double Extra
V>22 Double Extra represents one of Victas' most advanced high-tension rubbers. It features a harder sponge designed for maximum energy transfer, making it a favorite for players who want a "go-to" rubber that performs reliably under extreme pressure.
Best suited for:
- Aggressive backhand counters and blocks.
- High-speed topspin rallies.
- Players who rely on speed and direct energy transfer.

-
Serious, advanced offensive players looking for professional-tier equipment.
-
Forehand-loopers who rely on spin and precision.
-
Players with an aggressive backhand who use speed to dictate the pace of the rally.
- Athletes who want the specific setup used by Benedikt Duda.

Recommended Playing Style
Use the V>15 Sticky forehand to serve, open against backspin, and build the rally with heavy rotation. The V>22 Double Extra backhand produces outstanding high-drive arc topspins and is terrific for close-to-the-table banana flicks, tough play,, and punch blocking. The Victas Benedikt Duda blade will provide the stable backbone needed to execute these backhand-to-forehand transitions with confidence.
