Posted this under the medium pip section as believe this rubber plays nothing like short pimples,more like medium/long after having a 10 minute quick hit with it yesterday.

Was very impressed with how low the ball was coming off this rubber, indicating opponents spin has little effect.

Think it was 1.8mm with pink coloured sponge. Control felt off the charts good,very easy to use! Looping probably not, as not sufficient grip.

Having a longer session tonight to see if this rubber is really as good as first impression.

Speed is huge,especially on flat hits.Control was best for me on flat hits too,but felt real good on all shots.

Found this.

I tried this rubber out it again tonight,this time against much better player and got thrashed.

This rubber is more of a short pimple than medium pimple,reversal is very minimal which is my main weapon.

Opponent was easily able to hit with power and consistency against this rubber.

Would suit someone looking for superfast short pimple that is able to flat hit and flat topspin easily.

I tried taking the sponge off the sheet and I got a lot more reversal.

612 Turbo with sponge seemed to produce more reversal as well.
