Good rubber for its price, the trajectory is flat, good for control and spin, the speed is good for chinese rubber. If you wanna learn looping technique this rubber is good choice. Durability is insane its very durable

Reviews of RITC Friendship 729 Battle II Provincial (31)
I have not come across a more spinny rubber than this. Low arc and many gears. I play it on a high throwing Stiga Nostalgic Allround. It is a lovely match. Its a linear rubber. Play slow it is slow. Play hard you get a lot of gears and explosive power. Comparing it to Battle 2 Gold. The Gold is a bit faster and slightly less spinny with a higher arc, a bit easier to play. Serve with this rubber is superb. I win alot of free points on my short underspin serve thanks to the spin I get. You need to put your body into the shots but it will reward you with super spin!
I played the 40 version for 2 years. Before that I played the 39 version also for 2 years. I will briefly explain the biggest differences. The 39 version has everything you want from a modern Chinese rubber. It has a little built in speed, though it is not really bouncy. With booster the rubber becomes at least 50% bouncier and a little bit softer. It is tacky, but I had inconsistencies throughout batches. 2 were very tacky, 1 was moderately tacky and the one I have now is not tacky at all. So it's difficult to say what the average is. The 39 is much easier to play for people of different levels and playing styles. It excels in what most Chinese rubbers do and for the Battle 2 but flat hitting and driving is also decent. The 40 version was more difficult to play because it required more physical power in most strokes and there was less margin for error in countertopspinning. With the 39 version I was almost always confident to play a good topspin on the table but the power was sometimes lacking. For both versions the ball feel is very hard, and it seems the dwell time is not very high either. I would recommend it to people who prefer close to the table attacking and Hurricane 3 for people who mostly play loops
Used on a Yinhe Venus V 14 PRO (2.1mm; 40 deg; unboosted)
This is my first chinese provincial rubber and it's weird. The rubber points out the mistakes you are making, the footwork that you're missing, it's like the rubber is coaching you how to play with it. The break-in takes about 5-7 hours after that point it becomes a counterloop machine, I would say the spin is a bit less than the Hurricane 3 tuned, but if speed is what you are looking for, it's perfect.
I am still testing this out, so an update is sure to follow.
