During the safe game with forward intentions, there are 2 possibilities. One is to trust on soft and thin rubbers with an integrated speed gluing effect. The other is to use classics without an integrated speed-gluing effect. The Xiom Musa clearly belongs to the latter category (no integrated speed-gluing effect). By choosing such a TT rubber, you can avoid an unwanted catapult effect of the rubber. Such catapult effects is common in many Tensor rubbers.
Another feature of the Xiom Musa is that - by nature - this rubber exhibits much control. This is caused by the structure of the pimples, and by the properties of the sponge support. Due to this, this rubber "forgives" easy mistakes, and improves the overall stability during your game.
The Xiom Musa is primarily suitable for allround players who use their techniques in a controlled, well-dosed manner. By adjusting the sponge thicknesses (the thicker, the faster ... and vice versa), you can "create" a fast forehand, and a slower and highly controllable backhand, for example. By the way: Most allround players perform best when choosing the Xiom Musa black (or red) in 1.8 mm.
