(No Brand) C801

Review of (No Brand) C801I've been playing with this rubber for a long time. It's an illegal long pips rubber; if your venue checks the pip length, your racket won't work. The pips have a lot of friction, and the pip material itself isn't very grippy, but the large pips create a large contact area. This rubber's performance is top-notch in all areas: the chop block generates a ton of backspin, the passive block is very deceptive, sometimes with reverse, sometimes without. You can easily attack, and even in OX, you can inject significant backspin into the ball with a sharp flick of the wrist. The downsides are chopping stability in OX (the ball slows down too much and simply falls on your side; this isn't an issue with sponge) and overall stability. Control isn't bad, but the huge contact area plays a nasty trick on this rubber – it's significantly spin-sensitive, making you vulnerable to both forced and unforced spin-induced errors. This isn't such a big issue when this rubber is worn down (the tops wear off and you can ignore the spin), but when it's new, you need to significantly close the racket's angle and walk on a very thin edge to hit the table, not the net or out. If you need pimples of this type, it's better to get the Young 2.5, while the C801, despite being an all-round pimple, is better suited to choppers with a sponge version.Feb 23, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||

Der Materialspezialist Wildfire

Review of Der Materialspezialist WildfireI played with version 1.3. It's a pretty interesting rubber. While playing with it, I was absolutely amazed by its capabilities at one moment, and then I wanted to take it off, which is what I ultimately did. This rubber is good at blocking and driving balls with spin. The sponge provides the necessary hold, so you can block powerful loops at the table, which with long pimples kx fly off the table, and it also has some catapult, so even at a thin thickness, the speed is quite good. The ball sinks, sometimes has backspin, but mostly just a fast flat ball with some sidespin. Again, these advantages come into play when you're playing against players who spin the ball and play powerfully. Against the typical funky players you often see below the high amateur level, this rubber is simply useless. If you are an amateur of up to 1500 ttr, it is better to buy half-medium pimples like Dr. Neubauer Killer, which still provide a sinking effect, albeit less, but allow you to give more spin and arc.Jun 22, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||

Der Materialspezialist Spinfire

||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Der Materialspezialist SpinfireMy first high-spin short pips. This rubber essentially has two modes: pips and inverted. The first is activated when you directly contact the ball with the tops of the pips (flat shots), the second when you brush the ball. So even though this rubber mostly plays like an inverted rubber, it still has some deception. However, since this rubber doesn't have the same deception as other pips, it's more suited to forehand play; for backhand play, something like the Uranus Pro is better.Jan 25, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||||

Tibhar Grass D.TecS

Review of Tibhar Grass D.TecSThis is quite an interesting rubber. The pips are 1.6 mm long and the same width, with an aspect ratio of exactly 1.0. Friction is low; the pips are not soft, but they are springy and elastic under tension, so the speed is quite high. The superpower of this rubber is that despite the low friction due to the pip geometry and the rubber's properties, it allows for excellent spin variation. This means you can turn backspin into pure sidespin and cancel out spin, just like with frictioned pips, while still having a lot of reversal. The spin reversal is slightly lower than that of some other pips, such as the Piranja Ftec and Hellfire X, most likely due to the pip geometry. Given all these characteristics, this rubber is best suited for an aggressive blocker's style: you use your pips primarily as an offensive weapon, and secondarily for defense. This rubber works well for blocking off-table shots (on faster blades, the control will likely be too weak for most amateurs), but due to its tension, it has a similar effect to tensor rubbers—a micro-catapult on low spin. If you try to play such balls softly, the pips will bend halfway and release the ball uncontrollably. Instead, you need to push them aggressively. This rubber offers the best control on balls with medium-high spin. If your opponents spin the ball lightly and you don't play aggressively, then softer, tension-free pips will suit you better.Aug 06, 2026 | |||||||||||||||||||

Yinhe Pluto

Review of Yinhe PlutoProbably my review is the only correct one here. Most people here are too ignorant in terms of rubber properties and even confuse reversal and knuckleball, lol. And ignore all reviews before 2022. Yibhe Pluto before 2022 and after are completely different rubbers, similar only in the structure of the pimples, but having a different level of grip and elasticity of the rubber (the old Pluto had weak grip and weak elasticity, the properties of the new Pluto are the opposite of the old one) In general, this rubber is short pimples, the aspect ratio of which is slightly shifted towards the upper limit of the "out" type. Due to the property of the material, if you apply force, the pimples will bend, which increases the contact area at the moment. The grip is strong, really strong, but due to the insufficient area of ??the studs and the aspect ratio, it fully manifests itself only during tangential contact with the ball, when the pimples bend. You can even serve with these pimples if you accelerate well at the moment of contact. There is no reverse spin at all. On blocks with the current version, you will rarely throw a knuckleball, but often just a regular weak topspin, since there is no room for error on the block and a slight movement bends the pimples and the ball flies out like from an inverted one. In general, good all-round pimples, but I did not like them. These are neither truly inverted-like pimples, such as VO102 and Spinfire, nor classic short pimples like Spectol. This rubber tries to sit on two chairs, combining parameters from the different ends of spectrum and is not the best in anything.Aug 20, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||
