Yinhe Jupiter 3 Asia
Rubber description:
The Yinhe Jupiter 3 Asia is an exceptional table tennis rubber crafted for players who prioritize speed, spin, and control. With a speed rating of 8.7 and a spin rating of 8.9, it is designed to cater to aggressive playing styles while offering a commendable level of precision. The rubber features a slightly tacky surface that provides a good grip on the ball, making it easier to generate topspin on loops and powerful smashes. Additionally, it excels in consistency (8.2) and overall control (9.1), allowing players to effectively manipulate shot placement.
The tackiness of the Jupiter 3 Asia is rated at 6.5, which enhances its ability to lift underspin balls effortlessly. However, players should note that while the tackiness contributes to spin generation, it may diminish slightly after extensive use. The weight of this rubber is categorized as medium, weighing approximately 48g when cut, which allows for quick maneuverability without compromising on power. Durability is another strong suit, rated at 8.2, making it suitable for frequent play without immediate degradation in performance.
For players seeking alternatives, rubbers like the Hurricane 3 Neo, Dignics 09c, and various models from the ESN series have been mentioned in comparisons, though many reviewers believe the Jupiter 3 offers superior value for its lower price point. With an overall rating of 8.9, the Yinhe Jupiter 3 Asia stands out as an affordable yet high-performing option, appealing to both competitive and hobby players alike.

I found no flaws with this rubber when using it on my forehand. It is one of the fastest Chinese rubbers I’ve used, slower than 729 Bloom P, definitely slower than Dignics 09c, but faster than Rakza Z. I think it is meant to be hybrid rubber, since it has more grip than tack. It doesn’t weigh as much as the other Chinese rubbers.
Spin is very decent, comparable to Ten 05, but it has a lower throw angle than Tenergy 05. Of course, it is easier to generate spin with Ten05 because of the spring sponge on shorter movements, but this rubber doesn’t lack spin if you hit it properly. Where it shines to me is forehand flick and counter-topspin rallies. It really holds the ball well, giving you proper control over your stroke and placement.
The topsheet is the nicest I’ve tried from the Chinese rubbers. It provides a good feeling on any blade I tried. The cracking sound I can get out of this rubber when I hit hard is just addicting. On backhand, I can feel it even more. I am unable to use it for all the strokes on backhand since I am not that advanced, but I would say if you really got that Chinese technique nailed down, you can’t go wrong with this one on backhand. The unit I have is 37-degree hardness.

Chinese hard, sticky (not tacky) rubber. Excellent for attacking style.

I play this rubber (soft version) with Seamoon booster on Yinhe T11 carbon blade. It is very easy to generate heavy loops with a lot of spin. Smashing is also very easy to do. Blocks are very nice because the rubber absorbs incoming speed (if you don’t counter attack). Serves are spinny. I use black for FH. For 14 euros, this is a very nice alternative to expensive Euro rubbers.
