Butterfly Super Anti (Anti-spin)
|
||||||||
Review of Butterfly Super Anti (Anti-spin)Definitely not my rubber. The bounce is very unpredictable, sometimes bounce slowly, sometimes no bounce at all.I tried to chop a ball with it and the ball just spin in place, drop in my area, and my opponent says "thanks". :( Apr 04, 2011 | |||||||||

Butterfly Tackiness Chop 2
|
||||||||||
Review of Butterfly Tackiness Chop 2Very easy to make a flatter but spinnier chop compared to tack chop 1 which the ball shall fly upward and dip to the table, either with 1.1 or even 1.9 mm sponge.More control than the original, but may be because i tried it on Butterfly Defense Alpha, a very soft blade.

Butterfly Tackiness Chop
|
||||||||||
Review of Butterfly Tackiness ChopThis is my 1st chopping rubber, before trying chop 2.I just don't like the ball flight compared to tack chop 2, because the back spin is too obvious and the ball fly too high that is easier to return compared to tack chop 2. Jul 14, 2011 | |||||||||||

DHS Hurricane 3 (H3)

Review of DHS Hurricane 3 (H3)Just tried today, seeking chop and loop rubber for def alpha, for replacing my tackiness chop 2.because 1.5 mm one is impossible to find, bought the 2.15 mm, and tried it for couple of game first before shaving it to 1.5 mm later if I am not lazy, sorry. ;) This initial review is from "wall" training, will update when played a couple of games. :) This rubber not as fast as I was imagined based on this site, even slower than my Tack 2 1.9 mm, on brushing, but, On flat hit, there a loud "tink! / tick!" sound and the ball launch a lot faster. ??? I do need some explanation, cause this is new for me. The spin it generate on chop is less than tack 2. Not much difference with my dr evil. On loop, the arc are much smaller than tack 2. :) Overall control is similar with tack 2, but feel mushier. This is a good chopper rubber in today standard imho. :) UPDATE Been using is long enough, I am glad to not thinning the sponge. :) This rubber gave me something that I lack before, loop. Very much easier than Tack 2. :) UPDATE 2 In short, Change my mind, shave the sponge to 2.0 mm. If not enough, I will shave it further to 1.5 mm After finding worthy opponents to explore the rubber capabilities, This rubber is the worst on blocking due to either super high or super low throw (very spin reactive), so I can no longer lazily reach and block any ball, I should actively chop it. Thanksfully, the return is just as dangerous, very flat, deep, and heavy in spin, enough to kill amateurs. :P :) Mar 05, 2015 | |||

Friendship/729 GeoSpin Tacky

Review of Friendship/729 GeoSpin TackyI tried at 2.2 mm, and this rubber is a disaster.I think I got botched rubber, No tackiness, super low throw, damp feel, But then, I change the sponge to Kokutaku Blutenkirsche Japan 1.5 mm, using boiled water method, and, voila Spinny, slow, but very high throw, which I like. :) Jul 07, 2015 | |||

KTL (LKT) Pro XP
|

Review of KTL (LKT) Pro XPI tried this on Defence Alpha, in 1.8 mm thickness, red.I give up. this rubber is in the way for me to do anything. Coming from super spin rubber like tackiness Chop series and H3 series, While I can block, something impossible for me to do using H3, and this rubber really fast for those used to slow rubber like H3 series, This is a safety rubber, not reactive to spin, but not spinny either. Returning high spin ball is easier than Tackiness or H3. My chop too unspinny. Even Dr Evil spinnier. With H3, I am confident that my brush loop land on the table. With XP, same brush loop goes straight to the opponent face.I must held back for using full loop movement to make sure the ball land on the table. :( This rubber remind me of Sriver or Mark V Series, the play quite similar. This rubber is not for me. This may suit allrounder more than me. UPDATE I feel like I did not do justice to this rubber, so, I boil the rubber to separate the sponge, and, Put tulpe 1.1 mm behind it. :) It was revelation. For Japanese style under the table chopping, the rubber work wonderful. :) Very safe, spinny, and hard feel, akin of tack 2. :) I can chop any ball without worrying the ball shall be too low. It great for chopping. :) UPDATE Change the sponge to BLutenkirsche Japan 1.5 mm, now the chop even safer, but can loop and drive when necessary. It give good cracking sound on hard drive! :) I think the original sponge is the source of all problem for most Chinese rubber I have used in general, they did not "engaged", err, "resonance" well with the blade. Only H3 so far for Chinese Rubber that the sponge feel great off the shelf. :) Apr 24, 2016 | |||
