Yinhe Mercury III EURO

I used it on my FH & BH before realizing that it's too powerful for my BH. So I changed my BH to 804-20 (to handle spinny serves better). Result? Best combination of rubbers I've ever had on a blade. Spin is top notch while Speed always delivers. Best part is, I only paid $7 each. Fastarc G-1 would cost 5-7 times more. Way to go, Yinhe!

This is a non tacky Chinese rubber with a medium throw and medium-high speed at a cheap price.. This rubber is an impressive rubber for the price. I can’t generate the speed of a tenergy rubber but it plays like a quieted down version of tenergy 05, or even like an old 05 that’s worn down its speed some. It has impressive control over really fast rubbers but can still generate enough speed to win the point outright with enough of a swing. It doesn’t take as much effort to generate speed as hurricane 3, but is also less spinny than most Chinese rubbers. It’s weaker farther from the table as the lower throw makes it hard to clear the net. Short game is reasonable and easy to loop backspin. Not very spin sensitive either. Don’t stack this rubber onto any tenergy series rubbers as the tenergy has some oils in them or something that damages the surface of the Yinhe rubbers in only a few hours. (This also happened to Yasaka Mark 5; placing it onto a tenergy rubber for a while ruined the surface).

I've been using this rubber for 3 months. But still needs adjustments. Because (in my opinion) this rubber is difficult to use. When I want to swipe the ball, I need to find the right angles and timing, otherwise my shot will miss. When I want to drive, this rubber is really good. But when I want to do a counter loop, I need to find the right angles and timing so that the ball can go in. So I think doing top spins and loops with this rubber is very difficult

Play it on my BH red colour. It behaves quite well. It's easy to lift the backspin and it's not sensitive to incomming spin on blocks but it's spinny enough on topspins. The catapult effect helps the ball to fly over the net. The topsheet is like on AK47 Blue but this rubber is totally different and has a better grip. It's a tensor, I would compare it with Acuda S2 or even S1. Boosted it with one layer of booster and it has even more control now. My Blade is DHS Hurricane Long 3. On FH I have a Battle2 Provincial Blue Sponge.

I have it on FH and on BH TSP Ventus Spin. Before that, I also played Ventus Spin on FH for comparison. Yinhe Euro III rubber is relatively hard, I wouldn't call it "soft". It is harder than Ventus Spin and Rasanter 42. It is closer to Xiom Vega Pro or even Tibhar Aurus - 47 degrees of hardness. Yinhe rubber has a smaller catapult effect than Ventus Spin, and the rotation is also slightly smaller. This rubber presents poorly in a short game - or better technique is needed...The surface of the Yinhe rubber is rougher than that of the Ventus Spin / Rasanter 42. The Yinhe has a fairly low trajectory. The lining has a good control despite the fact that the contact with the ball is shorter than in Ventus Spin. Upgrade: It is generally necessary to have good technique to use this rubber because it is relatively hard. It is not rubber for people who want to start training. You must have at least several years of experience to deal with it. Perhaps it is soft in the Chinese classification, but not in the European one. I define it as roughly 47-48 degrees of hardness. As a medium-hard. Gum stinks a lot ... Interesting goods, but far from really soft Japanese-German productions, which offer much better control and rotation.
