Post subject:  suggest a short pip to me

Hello,

I wish to try short pips (penhold fh / tpb) again. i tried it for about a year and want to give it a go again. Previously I used spectol blue 2.0 and 729 105 legend. I liked the spectol blue, I could create a lot of spin on serves, only drawback was difficulty opening attacks, especially against dead balls. I hated 105, soft, no control and no spin, difficult to do most things.

I would like to stick to harder sponged pips as I think the soft sponge makes it a bit less linear and more difficult to create spin. Spectol blue is 43 deg. 105 legend i think is 36 deg. I could really brush the crap out of the ball with spectol blue for serving and also hit really well. I would also like a step-up in spin from spectol blue.

I was thinking one of the spinpips variants, but the hardest is 37.5 for D2, which may be too soft. Any other suggestions? Firmer sponge with a very spinny topsheet.

Thanks

You can still pick up sheets of Spinpips Blue. Seem the most logical move for you.

But even that is too soft IMO. Otherwise, 802-40 works with everything. Start with the 38 degree sponge, I like the 42 myself but that's moving into H3 type of hard rubbers.

There are no hard ESN short pips, I've looked.

Take a model player.
Look into the ittf top 300 rankings. A lot of the listed players are known to use short pips. You only need to follow.

I've read it in chinese forums, they all said it's very spinny

Also, they said it's fast and spinny and something that has to do with technique.
