inverted ox

[latej]

One player asked me to buy the Friendship 729 FX top-sheet, Ox, without sponge. He claimed I bought it once for him, which I can't recollect ;-) and doubt it. Anyway, he is an older player, a defender, who plays his whole life, he helped a lot of people when they were younger. But he is kind of fixated on this idea of "unreturnable chop", and as you can understand, discussion is pointless... Anyway, I think to buy inverted tacky top-sheet only will be close to impossible, but if you have any idea, please post. Also, if you have concrete suggestions of any tacky inverted thin rubber, where "thin" means up to 1,0mm, please post the links, that would be very helpful (any european shop or Ali).

Nittaku H3 (NR-8669) is available in four thicknesses. I think Thin is 1.1mm. The topsheet is standard DHS H3 topsheet and sponge is Nittaku's. I also remember watching a video from Tabletennis11 where a guy who's pretty good said he uses this rubber for chopping.

inverted ox = pips in rubber with sponge.

This all looks like a sheer folly. Inverted pimples without sponge is a forbidden construction threatening you troubles a lot. Yet, you may consider an ultra thin sheet of sponge material as an underlayer. Sheets sized of o. 3 mm is now widely found on market, thickness same as an art drawing Whatman paper.

Be happy all

If the topsheet ox pips in dosn't give enough spin it is possible to buy a 0.4mm ultrathin sponge

Globe - 999 is one of the classic Chinese rubbers. With a sticky surface and a slightly softer feel, the 999 offers excellent spin properties while providing re

Any of these ultra-thin options would give him heavy chop. My recommendation would be the Sun version 0.7, which is very tacky. I use the 1.2 as its more versatile if you want to flat hit.

Side question: What glue will you use? Adhesive sheet?

This needs to be emphasized.
If your player does not compete in leagues or tournaments he´ll be fine though, chopping away unreturnably

This is my question too. How on Earth do you (or your friend) intend to glue pips-down onto wood evenly and securely? This seems even easier to mess up than OX pips-out.

I don't know. He said he ordered - actually made someone else order for him - two sponge sheets, 0,6 and 1,0mm. But what glue and how he will do it - no idea. But he said he can do it... "Unreturnable chops" are coming, I don't want to scare you too much, but if I were you, I'd consider switching to squash or something...

Ah, so he doesn´t intend to use the topsheet without any sponge, this I misinterpreted. So everything´s fine.
