This rubber sounds strange .

Sometimes, I compare marketing spiel of rubber manufacturer to second hand car salesman. They are full of promise but also full of B$.

Has anyone tried it?

Abolutely right. But a car is much more expensive than a rubber.

I bought my first car for less than a sheet of Joola Timeless Anti and the shipping:), albeit the Joola was new and the car had a few miles on the clock:)

Had a brief hit with the rubber today for 30 mins on a robot and up to now nothing really stands out it appears to be a decent All around long pip// If a little to fast for my taste but Ill play with it tonight and I will be able to give some review

Mine arrived last Saturday. But at the moment I don't have a suitable free blade.

In what way is it nothing like Pogo? Could you describe what the differences might be? I saw this at eacheng myself and had me wondering. Now that there is a potential comparison with pogo, I am intrigued!

Well I played with Pogo some long time ago and just for 1 week and I disliked it comepletly I found Pogo too "dead" and long distance chop was horrid, this rubber is a good defensive pip from the short sessions ive had with it I would have to compare it to P1-R excelent chops horrible if you want to attack with it. But thats just fine with me. If you just chop its good but beware its faster than what i thought buy very controlable. I still enjoy more my cropcircles but im preety sure its because of the absorbing sponge so i might experiment putting the cropcircle sponge on Stranger

That's dampening sponge isn't it? I would not try to remove that. I tried this with a giant long soft and a heating iron. Sponge is useless afterwards.

Did a round of league matches with it last week, then as I pulled it off some of the sponge stuck to the blade in patches so it's gone now. Fellt like a pretty all around rubber, so in that sense maybe something like a Neptune or such? Maybe a slight emphasis on control/chop. Sponge material was a little unusual (0.8 from eacheng), like dense foamy if I remember right(?) but not the dampening kind. Anyway, wasn't bad but I wasn't all that impressed with it either.

I ordered a sheet in OX from zeropong. No one has mentioned it yet and maybe its an odd sheet, but mine is TACKY. I am talking i was able to pick up a ball off the table like chinese inverted sheet. I literally had to peel it off the cardboard cover. I have tried so many LP and I have never seen anything like this. In fact, if I did not see it myself I would not believe it and I don't blame you if you do not believe me. I am not sure how long it will last.

Anyone else notice this on a new sheet?

Here is a short video. Again these are brand new and not played with and not treated at all. Fresh out of the package.
