[quote="iskandar taib"]Doesn't look like it's available, at least not from Eacheng. Fear not, however - you CAN buy 802 (though not 802-40) topsheets:

The problem is where to get a good sponge for SP..I cant buy

and you can buy 1.5mm sponge:

Assembling a pips-out sandwich would be a lot less problematic than assembling inverted sandwich, as far as the gluing goes. I'd glue and trim the sponge to the blade first, then glue the topsheet on top of the sponge. This is what Chinese players used to do back in the 1960s and 70s, I've been told.

The problem is where to get a good sponge for SP..I cant buy gold palm trading sponge since eacheng charges a lot for shipping any product

The first one is about USD13, has pale green sponge, the second and third about USD30-33 and pale yellow/cream sponge. I'd be tempted to buy ALL and compare them back-to-back... except I've had enough of doing that sort of thing for a while (mainly because I often can't tell the difference..

).. but perhaps you can. Buy all, mount them on the same blade (two at a time, of course!), and try the same shots with them. And then tell us about it. They don't cost THAT much, do they? I mean, it's not like buying sheets of Tenergy or Tensors.

I always thought the "Mystery III" referred to the sponge - if so you wonder why the Japanese sponged version is also "Mystery III". Or does it refer to the topsheet?? In which case the German-sponged sheet has a different topsheet (being "Mystery II"). There's a whole RANGE of Mystery III rubbers, all pips of different lengths - 802-40, 755, 837, 563.... Note that the LARC:

https://d3mjm6zw6cr45s.cloudfront.net/2 ... _2017B.pdf

makes NO mention of "Mystery II" or "Mystery III".... so it can't mean they're different topsheets - or can it??

i am thinking about either going all out and getting the 802 ox on a 2.0 avalox c (50º) or going full control mode and getting it at 1.5/1.8 (35)
