Globe 888

Played with this for about 3-4 months in 1.5mm. Great rubber that blocks like long pips, very slow and well controlled. Hitting against backspin and drives are a blast and usually if the sheer speed doesn't win you the point, the sink will. The biggest problem comes when you play much weaker players that feed you half high rolls with not much speed or spin, you can only smash so hard with these pips, since they do not produce enough spin if you wished to hit harder.

Hi, it's my first time using a pimpled-out rubber. I used medium pips (MP) since most of the pips users are either Long pimples (LP) or short pimples (SP). I'm already well familiar with these LP and SP but not MP; so I'm curious about the characteristics of MPs. I've tested Pluto (1.5 mm), Pluto Euro (1.5 mm), and this Globe 888 (1.8 mm). For me, Globe 888 has more control over these 2. I can loop with these rubber with ease, and I can control incoming balls with short blocks. I am looking forward to trying Dr. Neubauer KO and Aggressor and Nittaku Moristo soon. But as of now, I am contented with this rubber. I was able to win games in the tournaments with this rubber.

I have tried Dawei C-1 and Halmark Panther. This pips is very easy to play. Better block (fast dead balls are hard for players) than those two, amazing control, U can play fast or slow with acurate placement of the ball. Using this pips U dont care much about oponents spin. Hitting is fast and deadly.

play like an inverted rubber with a mixed of deceptive attack! can shutdown your opponent in a single POWER BLOW!

Highly recomanded to the players who love MP rubber on BH. I use the rubber with Japanise sponge 1,8 mm. It is quick and controllible from each part of arena in chopping and spinning, driving and pushing close and over the table, allways giving a lot of deception and some reversal to confuse the opponent player. Almost perfect MP !!
