Review of Butterfly Wakaba D-13I personally disagree with the other review - I think it is a great transition from a Hardbat for beginners learning their strokes. It is not a whole lot different 4 years after purchase, so it is extremely durable. I got it as a pre made racket on a butterfly masters blade.

Review of Butterfly AddoyGood for beginners. It has an extremely low throw angle, and generates very little spin, but okay to learn strokes. Once good technique is developed, you want to move away from it.

Review of Butterfly Super Anti (Anti-spin)Great anti; very slow (takes a little while to get used to). Great reversal. Too slow to hit with, though it is good for blocks and twiddling chops/pushes. I would wager that this is the slowest anti in existence. I wanted to give a 1.8 for speed, but ttdb won't allow it. It's definitely way sloer than the Yasaka anti power.

Review of DHS Hurricane 3 Provincial (No. 22 Blue Sponge)Very fast rubber! Has a beautiful arc on loops, and is capable of producing awesome smashes! Good for service, but is not as tacky as you may think. I quite like this rubber.

Review of DHS NEO Hurricane 3I'm not sure about this rubber: it feels very slow (at least when new), especially when compared to the blue-sponge Provincial H3. It's not super tacky, and it seems a little hard to control on smashes. That being said, it has lots of gears, and it capable of a fairly fast smash if you put enough into it. If I bought again (I probably will), I'll go for the factory-tuned version (I don't use boosters, so that will have an influence on the speed). Solid rubber.
UPDATE:
After getting used to this, the Hurricane is capable of really fast loops and flat hits, as well as powerful smashes. Once this rubber breaks in a little, it's a great rubber!

Review of Friendship/729 804 (Anti-spin)An interesting anti - this is my first anti. Some more experienced pimple/anti players quite like it, and it certainly creates some problems for many players, however a few players cope with it fine. One player in particular handles it without thinking, and he can't handle pips at all. IMO, definitely fine for a first anti, and for $10, it's worth a try.

Review of Friendship/729 Focus 3 SnipeNice rubber. Not personally my type of rubber, as I like tacky chinese rubbers, and this is definitely a japanese-style rubber. That being said, after having a few hits with it, I don't mind it as much now. It definitely does what it does well.

Review of Yasaka Anti Power (Anti-spin)I was given one that was 2 or 3 years old from a friend - it plays like new!
There is almost no throw angle - it is great for blocking. I feel it has a better reversal than some others think. There is no doubt about how durable this rubber is. A fantastic anti, definitely worth the price (especially if you get it for free like I did)!

Review of Yinhe 9000 3 StarThis is a fantastic forehand rubber. It has unbelievable spin, along with excellent power. This makes it easy and effective for lobbing, chopping, flicks (flips), looping, pushing (slicing) and, of course, smashing. Smashes are effortless and can be hit so fast the ball nearly goes through the table.
I use it as a forehand rubber with a 2.0mm sponge. And on top of all of that, it is only $10.00. Great rubber!
As of 2016, this rubber is out of production. A terrible shame.
