Looking for rubber for beginner
(Just want any rubber that lower price than Mark V and acceptable quality)
I found yinhe rubber has a good price.
But I am not sure which one is suitable for beginner
-Mars II
-Mercury II/ mercury III asia
-Jupiter II/jupiter III asia
-big dipper
Or any budget rubber that suitable for me.
Thank in advance for any help that you are able to provide.

I highly recommend a Jupiter III Asia, I use it myself. Very good FH rubber and not bouncy/tensor. I recommend 38 hardness to start with.
BH I recommend Moon 12 Blue. Medium soft should work well to begin with.
There's a review of it in here

Just an opinion.
Reactor tornado V5 is a good rubber, durable and cheap.
But if only yinhe, Jupiter 3 asia FH and moonspeed BH.


if actual beginner ~ maybe reactor tornado v5 FH and mercury 2 BH

I wouldn't recommend Jupiter 3 asia for someone that is in the beginner fase and trying to learn. (Younger generation) Moon 12 medium soft and Moon speed soft are serious rubbers for beginners, very tolerant and good feedback.
If you want under €5, Mercury 2 is good. If someone can do basic strokes, Tornado v5 is acceptable

Definitely big dipper. Best all around performance and hardness

I found the 38 hardness of JA3 to be very compliant for basic FH strokes. Soft enough and just a tiny amount of Tensor/bounce.
But I haven't tried the other rubbers you mentioned.
Honestly tho if you and Tony reckon Mercury it's more suitable then you're probably right!

Big Dipper is the best option for forehand in my opinion. If you really want to learn good technique to produce spinny loops, you should try Big Dipper. Jupiter 3 is also a great choice for FH.

If you like punching / quick powerful strokes on your backhand, you should pick Palio AK47 Yellow. AK47 is really fun and has an amazing feeling -- it's like firing a gun. If you like to loop with the backhand you can choose Big Dipper or Jupiter 3. Mercury or Mars will be good options for an all-round backhand style.

Mars and Mercury is good for beginners.
I sold thousands of them, so I have a very good experience to justify this recommendation
I have mars and it's not that good of a rubber, it doesn't really have loud feel. I think the mercury 2 is incredible for the price though.

For kids from Yinhe, I would definitely look at mercury II. Although it starts a little tacky, that tack lasts about 5 minutes.
That's with all tacky rubbers, when you play it gathers humidity and rubber doesn't feel tacky to the touch. Let it sit for a bit and tackiness returns, it's that simple.

I like the Mercury as well, assembled a racket for my wife with them. She doesn't really play but when I try it out it still feels pretty solid.

I sold way more Mars than Mercury
for both its price, I think it is great offering and serve a target market for that price point well.
ie. for better rubbers like Moon 12 or Big Dipper that many like in this thread, that price could be too expensive for the target price point for Mars/Mercury

so, it has serve its purposely greatly, since 2012 too.

The marketing behind the rubber is good.

I've used it for 3 years in a training racket. Durable, but little feel, slow speed, very little spin, very good for block. Mercury is a rubber that will hold better in the long run, it has higher potential.

Mercury is better seller in Taiwan over Mars
In SA, Mars is better
I do believe in most countries, Mercury wins

so, I listed both in my suggestion.
any way, can't go wrong with them for beginners
