Yeah, I'm using skywings on om my lightweight setup made for a wife.
But when I ordered the packaging was different.
I assume this is the same rubber with new and old packaging.
Weights:

vendor	name	type	color	stock	package weight	uncut rubber weight	scraps weight
Friendship/729	skywing	inverted	black	0	75	56.8	15.8
Friendship/729	skywing	inverted	red	0	70	53.2	13.8

The rubbers are less tacky than mercury II soft and more catapulty.
I havent compare to T88 yet.

What is the hardness?

What is the hardness?

Black is H40 and red is H42. IIRC there is no clear indication on the packaging.

Esn or DHS scale? Since it's DHS I'm think DHS scale but light and soft description tells me esn scale.

 

[Airoc]

esn scale.

Must be. This rubber is so soft that it can´t be Chinese scale.

Well, that's what the rubber says as hardness. If you are really interested I can measure them with densitometer.

I'm also interested this rubber for children's light weight set up, please be kind to measure this rubber with your densitometer.

Thank you sir.
Best regards,

apologies for late response, but I finally had a chance to measure it and... I think my durometer must be from china too The black top skywing, labeled as H40 is having measured hardness of the sponge: 38-40, measured in various places. Similarly for red skywing the device says 40-42, so I would say it is pretty accurate.
