Hey, I've been thinking of trying a short pip rubber for BH. Do you guys have any budget short pip rubber recommendations for a aggressive player?

802-40 1.8mm
This is an easy step. 802-40 plays a lot like an inverted but it still reduces spin. It has a little more grip than 802.

802 1.5mm on BH, 2mm for FH.
802 is not very good for looping unless the ball is moving slow. There is no catapult or trampoline effect.
802 does tend to kill spin of the incoming ball. You can roll back spin pushes.
I have played some of my best with 1.5mm 802 on my BH.

I want to use my backhand for blocking flat attacking, chop blocks, setting up FH attacks. My overall playing style is offensive close to the table, rarely backing off to go to the defensive.
