Is it still available anywhere?
If not, is there anything just like it?

Discontinued and was replaced by Screw one which may also be discontinued (not sure). Ebay would be your best bet for either of these.

Both are listed as current in the LARC... Doesn't mean they're not discontinued, though. I'd try one of the Japanese dealers.

Nittaku calls their OX versions "ONE."

Screw is much different than Tibhar Grass DtecS. Screw is really slow . . . not too much deception, but great control.

Tommyzai,I think he was talking about the original Tibhar Grass(not de tecs) which is the slowest lp I found and I tried all the slow ones,however it is also one of the most spin sensitive and more suited to off or carbon blades .
I found the control of Grass exceeded the control of Nittaku Screw

Oh, gotcha! Yes, even the new DtecS is different. I can only imagine what the original Grass was like. Wait!! Is it still available? If so, is it worth checking out? I've heard Spinlord Dornenglanz 3 is super slow.

Yes original grass is still on sale.
P1r ox is another slow alternative,less spin sensitive than Grass,I can use it on up to all+ blades...no passive funk with these

a review from https://www.tabletennisspot.com/nittaku ... ze-review/

"The appearance and texture of the rubber surface are quite similar to the Tenergy rubber. Although the holes are not as large as the Tenergy. You can find the rounded-sized pores on the rubber."

what on earth are these people talking about ?!??!!!
