Against the new rule. As Dan has shown in the Youtube video some colours tend to be perceived as black(-ish) when the racket is moving (dependent on the angle). So how could you then tell which was it - black or blackish? I can't see any reasons to introduce new colours apart from pure marketing. It doesn't add to the game anything worthy.

Maybe for some.
And, more importantly, for all others it doesn´t take anything away either.

Because that´s what people did with black and black, the rule was changed to "clearly different colours".
And because of some pips and antispin players who argued that dark purple and black is of course "clearly different", the rule was again changed to "red and black only".
So rest assured they´ll only be bringing bright colours back

Well, we don´t know too much about these new colours and how they work/appear with different sponge colours.
Maybe pink works best with pink and it was easier to produce an all pink Quantum X with its already pink sponge than to colour the sponge of an Evolution, especially since on the Evolution rubbers "Red Power Sponge" is part of the concept.
I´d really like to see Sabine Winter with an all green Rasanter in India, but I don´t think andro have done anything like it yet.

Fair Play first
[size=+1] ITTF looking to get all the anti's and LP"s rubber somewhat easier for the opponents to discern in play. No more anti's in black and red allowed. It is to make the twiddling style less effective and less deceptive for the good of the sport of table tennis and all the people involved.
ITTF does think the twiddling folks would gain unmerited advantage too much through using black and red, -- not easy to differ in play. [/size]

Where did you read that?
It doesn´t make any sense to me, since there is no difference between "the red is the Anti, the black is not" and "the blue is the anti, the black is not."

I wouldn't worry too much about it.. Igor often makes up stuff...
Incidentally, I bought a sheet of the Tuttle Octopus. Get the green - the yellow is ugly.

Interesting they are already selling these, when they won´t be "competition legal" until after Olympia 2020 ...

Get the green...
The green topsheet, at least, is transparent.
Yes, of course it isn't ITTF-approved, which means it's not tournament legal. Doesn't make any difference to me.. It's great for freaking out club-mates.
Packaging is nicer than your typical Chinese $5 sheet (it's more like a $15 sheet). It's non-tacky and moderately fast. Kinda like Yinhe Mars II, more or less.

If you want ITTF-approved sheets you're going to have to wait. It'd be interesting to find out what Bernadette was actually using (the markings you can see in the video are totally unlike Evolution rubbers). Igor's mad that she was allowed to use the sheet..

Yeah. A taste of what´s coming
Speculations were that it was a Quantum X. But they could stamp anything on anything ...
