Les plaques de tennis de table sont excellentes pour l’apprentissage avancĂ© et pour dĂ©buter la compĂ©tition. Elles offrent beaucoup de contrĂŽle, et l’effet tensor se dĂ©clenche sur les coups puissants.

UtilisĂ© en Ă©paisseur 1,6 sur l’Andro Novacell, ce revĂȘtement offre un excellent contrĂŽle. La balle reste plus longtemps sur la raquette, ce qui permet une meilleure prĂ©cision. De plus, la vitesse varie selon les coups, ce qui est un atout apprĂ©ciable.

J’ai utilisĂ© ce revĂȘtement en coup droit (FH) et en revers (BH) et j’ai constatĂ© un contrĂŽle optimisĂ© ainsi qu’une bonne rapiditĂ© dans l’exĂ©cution des coups. C’est un excellent revĂȘtement Ă  dĂ©couvrir pour tous les passionnĂ©s de table tennis.

I tried this rubber on three different blades:

  1. Homemade Walnut Blade: Quite hard and flexible. It works on both sides, but performs better on the backhand.

  2. Stiga Eternity: Did not work well on the backhand, but was effective on the forehand.

  3. DHS Fang Bo 2: Worked great on the backhand but performed poorly on the forehand.

Pros: The rubber is quite spinny and reliable for blocking and placement. It is not overly fast and does not dominate in terms of speed. Instead, it follows a classic style of consistency-based winning. It is an excellent choice for players who want a reliable rubber that supports a one-more-point strategy. While it is not typically a power-looping rubber, it offers great spin for $25 and is competent in both passive and active blocking. The feeling never bottoms out, despite its softness for my preference. It has a similar kick to Chinese rubbers when spinning the ball against opponents.

Cons: It can slip at times and requires finding the right blade to perform optimally. I have not tried it on an extremely flexible blade, but I believe it might be better suited for one than what I played with. The weight is good for players looking for pace without excessive heft.

LSS: This rubber is an excellent choice for a 400-rated player to learn the basics, helping them progress all the way to an 1800 rating with consistency, spin, and enough power to win some points, but not enough to guarantee complete consistency. It has proven to be much better as a backhand rubber, particularly on carbon blades, than as a forehand.
