Hello, it's my first review. I've been playing with many pips (FL3, P1,Desperado2,Kamikaze,Tuple911,Zeus and even more). This.... thing? is much different. I'm playing with Niitaku Jie schopp old version, this is my first pips-out rubber that works well with sponge, but it shows real surprises WHITOUT sponge. Long away from table defense? No problem, ball goes extreamly low, maybe now as spinny as 1.3 pips but swing is much easier so i have time to decide how strong should i play, chop blocks are awesome, but this isn't a rubber that will play for You. You need to add someyhing, not just block. Reward is awesome, I can chop block, smash, attack underspin and even sometimes i play a dead topspin ball which usually goes into net since its stupid but when it lands usually opponent can't read it. Control is awesome. If You want to be a true allround, balance between def and off this thing is just for you! BTW, after 5 months no broken pips, usually new products goes to trash after max 2 months. i REALLY like it, its different from all other pips but if You will add some of magic.....

Used it in OX on a Donic Alligator Combi. Pretty insensitive to spin while able to create super spinny chop blocks. Spinniest chop blocks I've ever experienced with long pips. Most opponents could only manage at max 2 loops against a chop block. Punching back spin balls was also very effective, creating fast sinking balls with either no spin or a slight top spin. Chopping from far away was not it's strength, though manageable. For me spin variations weren't that dangerous, but that depends on the blade as well. Control was good, although at times it seemed too fast for my liking. 8.5/10 on the suffering scale.
