Reviews of RITC Friendship Sky Wing (10)

Skywing by friendship is rubber with good manufacturing, especially the topsheet in red has a nice transparent quality to it. Medium-tacky and sponge is medium hardness. I have played 4 sessions with this as my BH on 7ply all wood Yasaka Ma-lin extra special. Verdict: Very unforgiving rubber, just like the H3 on my FH. Skywing will not permit poor technique! It will teach you Chinese style: only Backhand Topspin and Loop! Every attempt, and I mean every attempt at BH push or hitting it flat will result in ball missing the table or hitting the net. This rubber has shown me how poor my technique actually is, and when used right, just H3, your technique as well as the rubber will improve for you. So, please buy for training technique and topspin & loop strokes but definitely not at competitive level. Even with good topspin, the speed and spin is not enough to overwhelm your opponent. 5.8-6/10

Not a rubber for beginner because of the stickiness. You got what you pay for.

Update!
Even if the existing approval no. is missing and the rubber is only offered in 2 mm, one is surprised to find such a flawless (slightly sticky) surface on a rubber in this price range. The light yellow sponge, which is specified by the manufacturer as 40 degrees, is also of good quality. The rubber can therefore be cut very easily without fraying
My selected, extra light rubber has a size of 166 x 165 mm and weighs 56 g. incl. protective film. It was 85 g in the original packaging and in the end, when cut to size on my offensive blade (with 156 x 150 mm), it weighs 41 g.
After playing this rubber many years ago, I remembered its very low weight, which is why I have now ordered it again. Unfortunately the rubber now weighs significantly more (between 3 and 5 g. Cut, ... then 41 g.) and I also remember, the spin level was significantly higher!
Conclusion: not very light anymore! Control and speed good, catapult acceptable and spin not even mediocre!

This rubber is maybe a little bit lighter than traditionnal chinese one, but heavier than euro rubbers. It's not so soft, I would say 40°. It's a good choice for defensive and pushes play, but it's hard to loop with that one. I prefer the classic 729 FX Super.
