Liu Shiwen used to use it.now she uses hurricane/skyline blue sponge(judging from china open).maybe im wrong about her new rubber,but i think im right.
I personally like yasaka products.i would choose the rakza 7:1-cheaper,2-yasaka products have excellent control/speed ratio.
But both are v. good rubbers.
on this topic of 2 brand names on 1 rubber,has anyone ever used the stiga/yasaka cobra rubber?
I have used it(on a friends bat),it is excellent in speed and spin,not a tensioned rubber.
Ive searched everywhere for it,but cannot find any for sale.
i really have to change my opinion on fang bo.In the beginning i never thought he would even reach 1/2 finals,but he played really well.
well done to him,and especially Xu Xin who broke a record by winning the open twice in a row.
just think that the ball stays on 1 side of the table during the serving of each game.It doesnt matter about winner or loser.
eg.The person who starts serving on the left of the umpire serves first in the 1st game.
In the next game and all that follows,the 1st serve of each game will commence...
