Works perfectly as a alternative to the frictionless pimples, there are LP's out there with more reversal (D.Tecs, CK531A...) but the control with Zeitgeist is just huge! I can perform all strokes with better control compared to all other LP's I've tried, be it blocking, chopping or even attacking. It seems that when I'm caught out of position or miss a bit in the timing the ball still lands on the table whereas it would have gone sailing away with other LP's. It also performs really good when chopping, it's probably the best OX long pips I've used for chopping. The speed is very low, about the same as Giant Long or Meteor 8512 and it's easy to return serves as it's quite insensitive to spin. It's just a wonderful LP!
This long pimple rubber is exactly what you expect when you read Spinlord's description. It's surreal how easy it is to bring back about any ball on the table. The shots you make with it are not the most dangerous but it is enough to make your opponent straight up miss the ball or give a weak return because of the deception. This is the type of long pimple you see older players use to make the younger opponents run around the table. Control is 10/10 easily. I was afraid of the speed first because I play it on a Lin Gaoyuan ALC (carbon outer ply) but the slowness of Zeitgeist balances it out nicely. If you have a good forehand attack then this is a killer combo!
This is my ideal backhand rubber. Can't fault it for deception and spin reversal. No pace, but great for slowing things down. Use high spin rubber on forehand (Tenergy 05 FX) and twiddle for surprise. Love this rubber.
