I’m not sure why, but my experience is completely different from the 2 reviews before me. I find the Dipper to be very soft and not tacky. I do agree on the control part. However, it reminds me of jelly (yes, the kind of jelly you eat). The top sheet felt like it was dipped in oil, maybe that’s why they call it Dipper? And the sponge felt soft, softer than my Mark V HPS Soft. If you disagree with me, I would love to know why mine is so different as well… I’m just saying what my rubber is doing.

Close to the table, it’s fantastic. Pushing is a little awkward with the soft feel I have, since it’s hard to generate spin back with the top sheet, yet if you do drop shots, the soft sponge will provide you with no force to let the ball drop back over = you have to over use your force = too far, if not, you’re just going to let it drop on to the net. It’s like a weak power, spinny control rubber… but then one thing I notice is that when you add your force on to the backhand, the ball flies, maybe because the soft rubber kicks in? I don’t know… but this rubber just feels so awkward to me, love the control, but still… I would not buy this again, sorry: X I’m going to look for something less jelly-like.

Originally, I wasn’t too impressed, finding it not really the fastest nor the spinniest. But I have since discovered that it has awesome defensive qualities.

Perfect backhand (BH) rubber for reverse penhold backhand (RPB) players who use quick wrist-snappy punchblocks/counterblocks.

The throw angle is medium-low, perfect for blocking. On the BH, I use lots of quick wrist-snap punch/brush right off the bounce. So with very small movements, you can really defend against smashes, since you are borrowing their speed and throwing it back at them faster with your forward punch and more topspin with your wrist snap.

The feel of the rubber is fairly hard (because it bottoms out to wood when punchblocking), which is the direct feeling I like when blocking.

Lighter than DHS tacky rubbers and Bty T05, but much heavier than most 729 rubbers. Just slightly heavier than Avalox Sterco.

Very hard rubber

This rubber is very hard, making it challenging to handle, especially on the hard sponge. As a result, it may not be suitable for beginners. With significant training and practice, however, this rubber can become a formidable weapon.
