Yinhe Saturn Pro table tennis rubber offers a perfect balance between speed, spin, and control, making it suitable for players of all levels seeking an all-around performance.
Crafted with high-quality materials, Saturn Pro boasts a tacky top sheet that generates exceptional spin on serves, loops, and flicks. Its medium-hard sponge provides optimal power and control, allowing for precise shot placement and effortless handling. With a 5.6 tackiness rating, the rubber offers excellent grip and responsiveness, enabling players to execute aggressive and varied attacks.
The Saturn Pro excels in seven gears of play, enabling players to transition seamlessly from defensive blocks to lightning-fast counterattacks. The 5-degree throw angle facilitates a low-to-medium ball trajectory, maximizing control and accuracy. The rubber's consistency rating of 8.9 ensures consistent performance, shot after shot, while its moderate durability ensures prolonged usage.
Overall, the Yinhe Saturn Pro table tennis rubber is an exceptional choice for players seeking a versatile and reliable rubber that excels in all aspects of the game. Its balanced speed, spin, control, and tackiness make it a top pick for both recreational and competitive players.
In my experience, the rubber is not very grippy when looping. This can impact the overall performance during play, particularly for players who rely on spin. It may require some adjustment in technique to achieve the desired results. Overall, while the rubber has its strengths, the lack of grip during looping is a notable drawback.
In my review, I used a medium hardness sponge on my backhand side. The rubber has impressive spin generation and is particularly effective for flick shots and smashing. Additionally, it provides accuracy and a safe option for a defensive blocking style of play.
I am using a 2.2mm soft sponge on a 729 V6 blade. This rubber is quite similar to the DHS Skyline TG2 NEO but feels a little more bouncy. It generates good spin; however, performing backspin serves can be somewhat challenging. The ball tends to fly off a bit during these serves, and the same issue occurs in the short game.
Brush loops work well, but the ball can occasionally go long. Additionally, lifting the ball from under the table often results in it hitting the net. Perhaps I am still getting used to the slower speed of this rubber for certain strokes.
Overall, the Big Dipper rubber works better for me. While it may be slightly less spinny than the Saturn Pro, it generates enough spin for my playing style. I feel much more secure with my looping and short game when using Big Dipper compared to Saturn Pro. Moreover, backspin serves are significantly easier to execute with Big Dipper.
The Big Dipper sponge has a hardness rating of H38. The weight of the cut rubber at 2.2mm soft is 44g.
