I would like to try a cheap and good chinese/euro rubber in my forehand over the summer training.
My wood is Fextra 7 and backhand Waran red or Victas 102 black

Give some good choises to select from and would be nice if i know why you suggest the rubber

Consider Gambler MeckTeK Predator. My coach has it and it appears to be a rubber with good spin and speed. But as we are talking about euro/chinese rubbers this rubber has a linear response and is not sensitive to incoming spin. I tried doing forehand and backhand drives with it on a Gambler Rosewood IM8 blade (we ordered a complete combo for USD 60) and it felt really good for a 14 USD price. One thing I noticed is that rubber attracts dirt and you need to clean it to keep the surface from loosing grip. From durability perspective it should last for 2 months with regular practice.

Indeed! For the price, its the best non-tacky, hardish rubber you will find. It's fast and can put a decent amount of spin on the ball. Not perfect but does its job.

Sanwei target national

Hey Yogi, isn't target national a tacky rubber? Or is it only slightly tacky that it could be considered non-tacky?
I was thinking about putting target national on my FH. But if it's not very tacky, then I probably wouldn't.
Could you compare target national's tackiness to some other tacky rubbers (e.g. H3 or Battle 2)?
