Here my first impressions. I bought 1 sheet red in 1.8 mm.
I played previously with waran and waran ii.
I use it at my forehand.
The rubber is more lively than waran ii and faster only a bit.
More versatile than waran 2 , its purple sponge is more elastic and you notice at the first shot that is very confortable at any stroke you can feel safe making pseudo loops and hitting and blocking.
I think this rubber is for direct play... More close to victas 102 or moristo than spinpips or 802.
I can't say anything bad about this rubber it works fine at all... Spinlord does a great job.
Just enjoy it

Can you compare it to Spinfire or Firestorm, from DMS ?

I Love Cheap and good blades that suit my game

Blades I like: Super ALC clone ...
Rubbers I like:those that are Cheap and good ...

Do you think it will be suitable for backhand, specifically for agressive backhand topspin-drive, and occasionally twiddle it for some FH whacking?

I've used Waran, and considered changing to waran 2. With the first waran I find it too soft for handling hard topspins, while trying some medium-hard chinese short pips, it does ease the problem, but sacrificing extra 'firepower' from the backhand side

Spinfire is close to inverted the throw is high and very grippy I think it does not have the essence of short pips waran 3 is more for direct game.
Firestorm are gripper than waran 3, firestorm better for loop waran is faster and better for hitting game... Waran 3 is more dangerous and its cracking sound is a pleasure.

Waran 3 will be a good option for agressive backhand for sure.
Waran 3 is more powerful than waran and waran 2 and easier to use.
Despite the purple sponge is softer than waran 2 you feel a hard touch perfect for blocking and hitting.

Have you tested victas 101? I think this rubber in 1.8 or 1.6 is perfect for aggressive backhand with this rubber every ball is a bullet.

Unfortunately, I haven't had any chances with VO-101. And where I live, pips rubber availability is not too good, except some big brands (and also chinese brands), which unfortunately again, not including Victas

Back to waran 3, its hard touch, is it brick hard like chinese pips such as 802, uranus pro (perhaps this one feels brick hard due to its very hard topsheet, CMIIW), or japanese/euro pips - esque hard?

Back to 7 ply allwood, no more composites for now

Hurricane 3 Neo

Still looking for some short pips with the softest sponge available, preferably something with a LOUD speed-glue-effect sound

Whack and Loop for eternity

The feel is hard but more lively and reactive than chinese pips , i could say that this rubber is in the middle but it is oriented to aggressive direct game ,

Can you compare with Dr Neubauer Tornado Supreme? Thank you.

Hi friend , i've never tried Tornado Supreme, only Tornado Extreme , Waran III is slower , more elastic and with more control and less deceptive than Tornado Extreme. In my opinion Tornado Extreme is too fast for me and difficult to play ... the touch of Tornado is too hard for me. Waran III is better for receive serves , flicking and lift the ball.

PD:
i saw you playing with Desperado Reload 0x and i recomended this rubber to a friend of mine...he used Hellfire and Kamikaze in 0x and now is so happy with Desperado reload 0x.


Pues te ví jugando en un vídeo en Fuengirola , atacando perfectamente con la Desperado 0x Reload, se la recomendé a un amigo "Manolo" de Sevilla,él juega normalmente con gomas 0x como kamikaze ,HellFire , Grass DTecs y se la recomendé ahora está muy contento , la verdad que el juego es parecido pero le permite meter más bolas con la Desperado Reload 0x sin sacrificar apenas el daño que ocasionan sus bolas.

Desperado Reloaded ox is a fantastic rubber. Thank you

Hi Guys
I have just ordered this in black 2.0mm for my forehand. I want to attack and block with it.
Any advice on blade? There will be a long pip or slick anti on the backhand side.
Bulldog
