Table Tennis Reviews and Ratings!

Honestly the best backhand rubber I've ever played with. The ball trajectory is fairly low thus it is great for blocking, smashing, and countering. However, the spin is superb particularly for backhand looping both of the bounce and away from the table. Surprisingly, pushing is better with the 64 than the 05 and it generates very good spin. This is an excellent rubber on composite blades with a medium feel like Michael Maze.

Very reliable, all around excellent forehand rubber. Less demanding and easier to use than typical Chinese rubbers. Its much more bouncy and very much a hybrid rubber. It is quite fast, and also very powerful. The 8.5 speed rating is too low IMO, so I gave it a 9. Definitely bouncier/faster than H3. Probably a little faster than Battle 2 or Bloom Power. Because of the bounciness, short game and slow-looping is not as good as more conventional Chinese rubbers. Overall very fast topspin attack. Less short-game control than H3. It's not as tacky and spinny as H3 or Battle 2. A more clicky, responsive feeling than H3.

Many will want to know how this compares with Butterfly Timo Boll ALC. I have both blades. V14 is a tad bit faster than the ALC and has a little less feedback/vibration. ALC has better touch and generates more spin than V14. 80% identical. Currently I'm playing with ALC.
