Review of Friendship/729 802-40My first pips, a pleasant surprise for me. Pips on BH (1.8mm), inverted (FX-P) on forehand. 2 very big pro's for me, 1.quite insensitive to incoming spin, service returns are very easy. 2. Very easy to open in general as well as against backspin. The spin you can generate with is (ofcourse) less then with inverted. As I am not a agressive backhand opener this seems to fit perfectly to my playing style. Chopping is quite easy as well, tho the ball tends to go high over the net with chopping so good technique/timing is necessary. Driving and pushing is easy as well, easier than with inverted imo. If you're looking for a deceptive rubber, 802-40 isn't (I guess short pips in general are less deceptive). Definitely gonna play with this rubber more, going tot try out Waran as well due to the positive reviews. Overall I think this rubber does exactly what it needs to do, nothing more, nothing less.
