Friendship/729 Yudo (Judo)

When I put this on my Yinhe T-4 off+ (Black 2.0mm), I could lift the ball over 6 feet before it fell off. That was before I started playing with it and cleaning it with foam rubber cleaner. Now some of the tacky has worn off and I can only lift the ball around 2-3 feet.

It has great spin and good control, but it’s not a speed machine. The Japanese sponge has great feel for those who like that sort of thing.

I play mid-distance topspins and chops, and this rubber performs fine. I can lift the ball perfectly, and hitting against loops of topspins with good technique is also possible.

It’s a good all-around rubber, but it would be more spinny and controllable on a more suited all+ blade.
