Review of DHS NEO Hurricane 2A fast and TACKY rubber! I use it for fh and bh right now but i will change the forehand because it has to low arc for me. If you play like a chinese player u will love this rubber! Taking the ball early is excellent! Great spin! Remember to practise with this rubber before you go to a competition! 3 days after i get the rubber i went to a competition and everything worked good but not lifting backspin over the net! i always looped them in net. But if you played with tacky rubbers before it wont be a prolem.Pushing: Good and you get good spin when you brush it to backspin. flick/flip: Good but u have to practise some with it first. Loop: Really good close to the table. Loop(from backspin): you need to practise on this before you will get the ball over the net! the rubber also have to "break in" for some weeks in my oponion. Driving from mid-distance: it works but you need to lift the ball pretty high upwards because of its low arc. Spin on serve: amazing! Recieve spinny serve: thats really hard because of its tackiness. especially if the serve is very spinny. Smash: Amazing!!!!! Drop shots: neither good or bad Defending smashes: works but you need to counterattack back later or before in the rally. Good rubber!! especially for backhand! Jun 03, 2013 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

DHS Tin Arc 3

Review of DHS Tin Arc 3First of all: dhs says on their website that 2,0mm rubbers come with SOFT sponge and MAX thickness rubbers with MEDIUM HARD sponge.I really agree with that because here on ttdb it says 5.5 but my rubber which is the max version is much harder than 5.5 I bought this to my forehand and when i started to play i tried it on my fh and it was nothing special. Then i tried it on bh and i was seriosly amazed! Never tried a bh rubber with that much control+power at the same time!!! In my opinion this rubber have a low throw angle so it's easy to by mistake play the ball to high, but after 2-3 trainings you will get in on it. That low throw angle makes it really easy to open up against a push, and if you want u can easy make a slow SPINNY loop. Also away from the table it's easy to counterattack. Much easier than with other rubbers. As everyone said, it's very heavy. I glued it on to a balsa blade which was extremly light so on a normal blade it will be much hevier. So i recommend to cut off the rubber as close to the blade as possible to get i as light as possible. Overall it's a very spinny and controlable rubber, that doesn't mean it's slow. It's actully very fast too :) Jan 26, 2014 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Friendship/729 Super FXWhen i glued this rubber to my blade and started to play i just said: WOW! Maybe not very fast but comparing to the price it's an amazing rubber. What i really love with this rubber is pushing. I can get so much backspin! (i use it on bh) When blocking it works but it's hard to do a "perfect" block because the sponge doesn't have really much power, u just have to punch your racket forward to block harder. When i'm blockig i like to take a step away from the table and just put the ball back. So maybe that was a reason for why i didn't really couldn't get in on it first. But when i blocked directly after bounce it was a bit easier.Dec 13, 2013 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Stiga Calibra Tour M

Review of Stiga Calibra Tour MThis rubber has a very very different topsheet. It feels like someone had pulver on it. Because the spin will be very bad, close to an anti rubber if you don't do anything about it. After cleaning it by breath consistently when i'm playing in about 2 weeks it got an average spin for a table tennis rubber. So the spin is very bad. I hope this will not happend to you, because i didn't opened it up directly when i bought it, i waited about a month. A good thing with this rubber is the speed. It's one of the faster rubbers i've tried. Even if the spin is not a strong part rubber, it is possible to make slow spinny topspins if u have the technique. The consistensy is one of the worst things with this rubber. If you don't clean it regularly, it will lose it's spin really fast.Mar 13, 2014 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Review of Xiom Sigma 1 EuroOctober 7, 2013: First when i glued it to my blade and started to play i felt it was a slow rubber and hard to control. But after about a week of playing i founded the feeling for the rubber and i could produce very spinny loops. It is a fast rubber, even if there are faster rubbers than this one but combinated to the high spin and control it is amazing!Push: good control, good spin Flick/flip: fast flicks with this rubber! Loop: Fast and SPINNY! Great loops far and close to the table. Loop (from backspin): Very spinny, hard to get it fast without practice. Spin on serve: Great! Smash: this is absolutely the best rubber i have tried for smash! Amazing!! So fast! Lob: This rubber is not for lobbing but it works. This is a spinny, fast and controlable rubbber! Very good!! EDIT: December 13, 2013: I use this rubber on fh and now i just have to say that this is one of the best rubbers i've ever used for fh looping! So fast and so spinny!!! Maybe not that fast but the spin is really good in loops. Sometimes when i'm warming up with players which are far better than me, and they block and i loop they can't sometimes get down the incredible topspin on the table and looks at their rackets like it was impossible! Thats very funny :) So it have an incredible spin. But not THAT spinny on pushes unfortunately. Dec 13, 2013 | |||||||||||||||||||
