Are the numbers assigned to Crop Circles faster or slower than what Giant Dragon assigned to Dragon Talon?

Notice that they only come in OX or 1.2mm... no 0.6mm which is unusual for long pips. Price is likely to be quite a bit cheaper than Talon.

So faster than Talon, but less spin sensitive. Hmmmmm.

I love the name. They do have some great names for their pips, Dragon Talon and Crop Circles. Oh, and Giant Long. That makes more of a great adult film name, though.

Here's some info on the rubber (from the french forum tennis-de-table.com, player compared it to Talon) :

- control and ball placement better than Talon
- insensitive to incoming spin; easy to control and return serves
- attacking is easy (identical to attacking with Talon)
- a tad faster than Talon
- chop blocking and chopping away gives good disturbing effect (superior to Talon)
- more wobble with Cropcircles.

Cheers,
Ma'man
