Customer review for RITC Friendship 729 FX (Blue Sponge)

External Review for RITC Friendship 729 FX (Blue Sponge) on July 13, 2016

The blue sponge version is made for forehand and it is (at least mine) considerably harder than orange 729fx. I have been playing for about 2 weeks now with this rubber (2.0mm) untunned on a stiga allround classic carbon and a yasaka extra 3d (both cpen) and tried it both on forehand and backhand. The rubber is indeed tacky and spinny but only if you are able to deliver fast brushing strokes. While ok for forehand, there are several better options even for players trying to learn the basic strokes. I would not recommend it for backhand since I found myself using too much wrist on my RPB to be able to apply speed and spin.
