Review of Friendship/729 Focus 3 SnipeAfter few months I could not adopt on this rubber. Like the sponge but rubber is strange, not that soft and no dwell. Ordered Kokutaku Blutenkirsche 868 Tokyo instead.

Review of Gewo Proton Neo 450Just tried on a friend's blade, suprisingly softish rubber. Ball very quickly interacts with sponge. Versatile and good control though.

Review of Kokutaku Blutenkirsche 868 TokyoAt first look top sheet looks almost like anti but after few hours of play surface becomes more grippy. After rakza I must change some technique to make decent spin. Speed is solid and have good variations of gears. Great control. After 10 months (2x week) plays even better, faster and spiner. Not good for smashes though.

Review of Palio AK 47 BlueTried it on friend's Korbel blade. Very serious rubber, made for easy spin and loop. Strong catapult effect. Similar to tenergy 05fx but much less control though.

Review of Palio Hadou 40+Just tried this rubber, can not get better rubber for this price. Update: I am using it for two years now and they still working great. My coach sad that I don't need to change it, there's enough spin and speed. Considering of course that is low budget rubber. And it works like 70% of donic M1 for 11 euros.
