Gewo Hype EL Pro 42.5

||||||||||||||||||||||
Review of Gewo Hype EL Pro 42.5I used 2.1mm unboosted rubber. Was my BH rubber for 3-4 months, it was great for drive, block, counter. However, since it has catapult effect, a bit too bouncy to make a short ball. I really like it for ability to perform mid-distance looping, it was easy to get good spiny loop. When it was new, it was great for backhand flick and push too. I didn't like using it on FH, it too soft for my style, but good for mid-distance looping, and great to perform spin against backspin anyway. It's a bit too bouncy to make a good backspin services.After using it for a while, I found it difficult to control, strong catapult effect, too bouncy, not the same as when it was new, ball easily fly off the table, I cannot make a good push or flick as I used to. But it still in excellent condition, and still great for doing mid-distance looping. Now it's on my FH side, still easy to control but cannot execute direct aggressively attack as what you can get from harder rubber. Jul 26, 2020 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Kokutaku 007 Pro. Selected

Review of Kokutaku 007 Pro. SelectedI bought it in Thailand, it cost me only 15-20$. Feel tacky and sticky, can grip the ball really well, but not so tacky if compare to Chinese rubber - like hurricane. I also have a 007 Pro 'Hard' version too, hard version feel a bit more like H3 Neo but a little bit softer and little bit less tacky. Never try boost it, but I like 'Hard' version more than regular one (regular one feel like 38 degree).Like other said, this is a good choice for beginners to semi-pro (compare to price), you can do anything with this rubber, spiny service, loop, short push, flick, hit, smash!. Really good for control focused player. However, if you are looking for more direct power, fast attack - due to a bit soft sponge - I think Chinese rubber can do better - let say like H3, Tuttle Beijing IV, Sanwei Target.
