Dawei 2008 XP (Super Power)

||||||||
Review of Dawei 2008 XP (Super Power)Best value for money rubber. If you a cheapo like me, and didn't want to spend much money to try many rubbers, get this rubber. For it's price, I will rate :Speed 8/10 Spin 9/10 Control 9/10 And this rubber is very durable. After 2 months of playing (play 3-4 times per week, each season last 2-4 hours), with proper cleaning and maintenance (I wipe with wet towel after each game), the rubber still looks and perform like new. Once again, please remember that this is the rating based on it's price class (under $10), meaning that it's 9 rating in it's spin value doesn't equal 9 rating on $40 rubbers.

Friendship/729 FX EL Super Soft
|

Review of Friendship/729 FX EL Super SoftOk, I've played with this rubber long enough to give decent review about this rubber (both black and red).First, apart from the stamp, the black and red didn't feel like the same rubbers at all. Black is tacky, and red is not tacky. Not less tacky, but not tacky at all. Red has low gears, black doesn't. With drop shot, you can pinpoint where exactly you want the ball to be with red, but for some strange reason, I can't do the same with black. With the exact same reason, red is much much better at flicking over the table. Even backspin ball is so much easy to flick with red, just like flicking poly ball (and I'm playing with celluloid ball during the time of this review). Both can do decent push and keep it low. Looping away from the table with red also have lots of "feel" than with black, although both can do the job right. Again, looping backspin with red is so much easier than with black. Driving with red feels so nice and sharp. Didn't bother to drive with black, mainly because black is tacky. I think what makes red and black so different is the "feel" you got in red. This "feel" makes you have total control in your strokes, which is a very good thing for me. I'd rather have rubber with full control than with full spin or speed. I'm playing penhold, and currently using 729 FX super soft RED in FH. Basing on my positive view about this super soft, I tried 729 FX lightening. Bad idea. 729 FXLightening, even the red one, didn't have the "feel" that makes 729 FX super soft red difference. Because this is a cheap rubber, there is a huge possibility that their quality control is very poor, so one 729 FX super soft can vary greatly with another 729 FX super soft. It is also possible that I got bad black rubber, or got a special one of a kind red one. Apr 19, 2014 | |||

Yinhe Moon Speed

Review of Yinhe Moon SpeedTry the black color, soft version on Hard (rosewood top) stiff blade.Although it is fast and bouncy rubber, this rubber have very low throw angle, thus making this rubber effective for close to the table play. It's low throw angle mean that there's very small room of error when looping against backspin, and although it's bounciness makes this rubber capable of hitting away from the table (1,5m away from the table), it's very uneffective for counter topspin away from the table. You have to constantly focus on your blade angle, stroke, as it's lack spin to balance it's speed. My impression of this rubber is good for fast attack close to the table, block, flick (FH), and flat deep push. Not a recommended rubber for beginner players. Oct 06, 2015 | |||||||||||||||||||||
