Speedglue era rubber was quite impressive in its time. It offered exceptional performance and speed, making it a favorite among many players.

However, its relevance may have diminished with the advancements in modern table tennis technology. Overall, it remains a nostalgic choice for those who experienced its popularity in the past.

The rubber is not particularly effective for looping unless you use a deep sponge. By doing so, you can achieve nice spin and speed.

However, smashing with Mendo MP is great. On the other hand, the short game can be quite challenging.

The rubber is heavy and lacks durability.
