Friendship/729 729-2 Transcend

The Friendship/729 729-2 Transcend table tennis rubber is an all-round performer that excels in control and spin. It is designed for players seeking a balanced combination of speed, spin, and control. With a speed rating of 11 and a spin rating of 10, the Transcend provides ample offensive capabilities without compromising on control. Its tacky surface enables excellent gripping of the ball for precise shot placement and heavy spin generation. The rubber's 10-point sponge hardness contributes to its responsiveness, providing a good balance of power and control.

The Transcend rubber is relatively lightweight at 10 points, making it easy to maneuver and control during gameplay. Players can expect a consistent performance from the rubber, as it maintains its properties well over time. Its throw angle of 6 is ideal for all-round players who want both control and spinny shots. Despite its excellent performance, the Transcend is considered to have an overall rating of 5 out of 10, possibly due to its lack of specialization in any particular area. It is neither the fastest nor the spinniest rubber but offers a well-rounded combination of all aspects.

According to forum reviews, the Friendship/729 729-2 Transcend rubber is a great choice for recreational and intermediate players who prioritize control and all-around play. It is also suitable for beginners who are still developing their skills and techniques. However, advanced players seeking specialized rubbers for specific playing styles may find the Transcend to be lacking in certain areas.
