| AIR Illumina - SALE $22 | |
|
Price: $25 This topsheet has a very soft, euro feel with traditional euro pips structure. The sponge is sort of lemon yellow...very corky. I just got accused of gluing at a tournament from the loud sound...well not really accused but implied. The X25 has a mid hardness sponge maybe 41. The x90 has an extremely soft sponge and I would only get this with a very fast blade or if I was planning to tune. I am using x25 and for the first time really don't miss gluing. AIR products are not included in the combo discount. I'll need $15 per sheet in combo for air, which you'll have to email me to get. I HIGHLY recommend that you use water based glue to apply this rubber if at all possible. |

| AIR Scirocco - SALE $20 | |
|
Price: $25 There are three kinds: SN is Speed; SR is power and control; SF is spin. The SN and SR have large pips which make the rubber play "flat". SR is a bit softer than SN. SF is softer still and has traditional pips, but still not as soft as the illumina top. OUT OF STOCK SF 1.8 BLACK. SN on sale on my specials page. |

| Inspirit Quattro ULTRALIGHT | |
|
Price: $16 Dawei's best euro copy rubber. Thin top allows for better sink into the sponge and better use of the best glue feel sponge of any unglued rubber coming from china by far. This is a euro style looping rubber, lightly tacky, and built for max topspin. Max is supposed to be 2.3 but sometimes goes thicker. The SV is around 35deg, regular around 40, and power version around 42deg. 42deg is available in 2.2 only. If you want to use Quattro or Quattro UL in a combo you will need to click the "Quattro Upcharge" button below the regular quattro, once for each sheet of you want to use. It will add $2 to the cost of your combo for each sheet. |
|
| Inspirit Quattro - SALE $14 | |
|
Price: $16 This is the thicker topsheet version of quattro, which makes it play a little flatter than the UL version. Pushes flatter, flat hits better, less topspin on loops. OUT OF STOCK 2.2 black and 2.0 both colors. |
|
| Dawei Inspirit - SALE $12 | |
|
Price: $14 More controlled version of the inspirit series. Still a very corky, euro copy sponge and an absolute steal at this price. |
|
| Galaxy Venus | |
|
Price: $14.00 By all accounts this rubber should be at least $15 or 16. If you look at the prices in china, this rubber sells for almost twice as much as most of the rubbers on this site. This rubber has a very nice sponge stamped as japanese, which you can see here. This rubber is advertised as glue feel and it is to about the same degree that regular inspirit is. Color can vary from cream to light yellow. The main difference is that it has a tacky topsheet. It has more speed than any tacky rubber I carry, esp given that the sponge isn't that hard. It does glue up too with a nice click, although not monstrous like dawei. CHECK OUT MY SPECIALS PAGE FOR LIMITED SUPPLY OF THE NEW FACTORY TUNED GALAXY APOLLO RUBBER! |
|
| Sprungfeder G3 | |
|
Price: $14.00 The newest and best version of the popular Dawei Sprungfeder rubber. At one time this was my best selling tacky rubber, at that time displacing cream on mrs. Sponge is kind of a cross between saviga and quattro, and a firm 40. The tackiest dawei offering I carry. |
|
| Gambler Six Shooter Pretuned | |
|
Price: $14 Slightly more controlled version of the extremely popular outlaw. Slightly softer sponge. |
|
| Gambler Outlaw | |
|
Price: $14 Very high quality offering from gambler. Closely related to six shooter but amped up. Very much a non-tacky japanese finish and a decent quality sponge with some "factory tuned" effect. Not much click, but speed is very good and spin is very good for a completely non tacky rubber. Well worth a try. |
|
| Gambler Wraith | |
|
Price: $14.00 Wraith is the spinniest of the gambler rubbers and is quite fast for being fairly tacky. Fairly firm sponge. |
|
| Gambler Shadow | |
|
Price: $14.00 Shadow is a slightly more control oriented rubber than wraith. Less tacky, softer sponge. |
|
| Gambler Reflectoid | |
|
Price: $14.00 This is a very specialized rubber for specific purposes. Although a defensive rubber, it is not an anti spin. It is fairly tacky. It is made for blocking and chopping. Most people who want to spin with it will go 2.0, and the 1.5 is more for chopping and blocking. |
|
| Dawei 2008XP | |
|
Price: $6 This rubber should be selling for twice this price, but what the heck right? The sponge is 40deg and fairly fast. The topsheet is medium thickness and only very lightly tacky. In 1.8-2.0 it's a decent rubber for beginners and offers a quality option for premade prices. Because this rubber is so cheap, you can order several sheets and the shipping will still default to $1. If you order more than two sheets, however, you must MANUALLY CHANGE shipping to $5 or I will cancel the order. I simply can't ship more than two sheets for $1 and there isnt' enough profit to cover the extra shipping cost. -PREMADE BUSTER: PREMADE BUSTER BLADE COMBO WITH 2008XP RUBBERS AND CASE FOR $24! |
|
| LKT BlackPower/RedDiamond | |
|
Price: $14.00 I've never tried either of these, but based on the longivity in forum approval, I'm expecting these to sell themselves. |
|
| Gambler Aces | |
|
Price: $14.00 Something like LKT XT but tackier and a much firmer sponge. This makes it much quicker but not as loud when glued. Quite light. |
|
| LKT Pro XT | |
|
Price: $14.00 Modern, ultralight rubber made by friendship under the LKT brand. Quite tacky, this rubber is something like geo tacky but with a newer type of sponge. |
|
| LKT Pro XP | |
|
Price: $14.00 XP is supposed to be a less tacky (and therefore faster) version of the same rubber, but there's very little difference if any. Instead, what I find (like many of the rubbers I carry) is that the black is quite a bit softer and tackier than the red in either make. |
|
| Geospin/Geo Tacky | |
|
Price: $14.00 Geospin black tacky is among the spiniest rubbers on the planet. It has excellent control (being sticky it does react to incoming spin heavilly though), and is medium in speed. The regular Geospin is supposed to be on a softer sponge, but I can't tell the difference. I like black tacky on the forehand and red regular on BH if you choose these rubbers. |
|
| FXEL Supersoft | |
|
Price: $14.00 This was 729's first attempt at creating a Euro rubber. It's soft, half tacky, and very very light. It's been criticized for lacking power, but I don't think it seems that slow. It's a great rubber for control looping, and I frequently recommend it to players making their first step up from a pre-made racket. |
|
| Cream on Magic Red Sponge | |
|
Price: $14.00 This is the rubber that got me into the business. For a couple years my best seller. Tacky topshet so not great for beginners but loads of control for people who want to play equal amounts of offense and defense. |
|
| FocusIII Snipe | |
|
Price: $14.00 I consider this to be the highest quality product friendship has created to date. The topsheet is very pretty, and completely non tacky. The sponge runs pretty soft...maybe 38. The quality of the sponge is better than other friendship 38deg, like the reactor. It's supposed to be japanese but I have my doubts. Overall it's a great bh rubber but many would find it too soft and not tacky enough for fh. This is the only chinese rubber I know of that comes without the plastic covers. It just has paper covers like sriver, etc. I think this is part of why it has a nice, Japanese finish. This is the new and improved SNIPE version, not pictured. |
