How much is this purple one? Why are there 3 versions of target 3?

I see silver, red, and this purple.

I just ordered a silver one to try.

if it's meant for forehand then it must be at least H39. Do you know about the previous Target National ?
I previously used the Target 3 Pro nano-penetration (red package).

This time I ordered the Target 3 Pro (silver package) because I'm curious what difference it is. I'm guessing its's pretty similar.

I previously used the Target National in blue/yellow package. The throw angle was atrociously low and it was terrible.

I think your Target 3 Pro (silver package) might be orange sponge.

I got the Target National in blue/yellow package from Aliexpress. I like it. That one has blue sponge and plays similarly to the one I got from Megaspin (on Megaspin, that has silver packaging but yet the sponge is blue).

Yeah it is getting very confusing.

Cool chart.

The gen 3 silver target is really good. Much better than gen 3 red package.

Not sure what the blue one is supposed to be.
the last blue one is probably the same one as the "National" one posted here, the one that looks purple-ish, it's the same one upfront of their product page.

I wonder how it differs from the global release, both Target and Gear Hyper have different available hardness for CN and Global but looks quite the same.

It is a mess. I just buy either blue sponge or orange sponge, and I don't care about the rest.
 
Hello, I was interested to purchase Sanwei Target 3 National for the forehand.


The sponge thickness is 2.15mm, as found on Sanwei website, but the package in the listing wrote "中硬“ meaning medium hardness in english. What is the medium hardness in this case. Being black rubber it would be for forehand, so in the range of 39-41 degrees. Would this then be 40 degrees being the medium one?

Edit: how does Shein have the newest version of Target 3 National at $22?

Wow I've never seen that black package Target before.

To me, "medium hard" always means H37-H38.

That is very interesting that Shein sells table tennis equipment. I've never seen that before. I thought they only do clothing. But that silver package Target is excellent, I love that rubber with booster.

Medium hard is around 40 DHS from what I've read, when playing it felt like maybe 39 H3 with more rebound

I noticed that there is no red rubber Sanwei Target 3 National, it is named differently, although it’s just softer sponge. Hence I doubt they will make such a soft forehand rubber, especially since it is basically universal that red is backhand black is forehand (except some European and Japanese players) (oh and jpen)

How would you describe how it plays compared to Blue Sponge Hurricane 3. Oh and is it boosted from the factory cause it always seem to curve, behaving like boosted rubber.

The Target 3 National is now my Forehand rubber. The arc suits me slightly better than the H3 OS. I don't say it's better, it's just luck that it's perfectly adapted to me. It's insanely efficient on my flat hits and heavy top spins, and it's equivalent to the H3 in the other aspects of my game.
