Has anyone tried this rubber? At $9 a piece, it's a bargain.

No one responded to this originally; has anyone had a chance to try out this rubber yet? I'm thinking of looking into it for chopping/hitting in the black version. I like the Reflectoid that I currently use on my forehand a lot for chopping, but it doesn't have much oomph to it in attacking, so I was thinking of upgrading a bit and have my sights set on the Akkadi Taichi or the Xiom Yanus. The latter is a much more expensive tensor rubber, so before I invest in it, I'd probably try the Akkadi Taichi out unless I heard something negative about it. If anyone has other ideas for possibilities to try, feel free to pass them along.

well, from what i read from the AKKADI main forum, they say its a Medium tacky chinese rubber,
which is Lighter than Hurricane 3
there is 3 type, C1,C2,and JS, manufactured by 729 Friendship in china.
They say its an alternative for Hurricane with lighter weights, which has been a disadvantage of chinese rubbers.

Thanks, Desolous. It's so cheap that I think I'm going to try it and see what it's like for myself. Will report back.

I try it in 2mm red, it feel like the Tackfire Soft, which is great, good speed, spin and control, its not bad for $9, its worth the money.

But the black version is supposed to be a bit different from what I understand, and I need black both because my LP on my backhand is always red and because I'm looking for a forehand rubber and they recommend black for the forehand.

Does anyone know why Eacheng sell this rubber without the commercial package - just the plastic sleeve? Do they manage to get hold of them before they are shipped off to Donic?

To save $5 from the cover art and plastic it comes in. That's why bulk purchases from China don't have the cardboard and plastic so you can buy more.

All I can say is give the black version a go.

I am hooked on it. It is one of the most forgiving rubbers I have ever played with.

After I tried it and fell in love with it I Jumped on Eacheng and bought 9 sheets of it lol :?:
