This cool rubber just came out. The reviews for it seem to be quite good, saying its on par with Vega Asia.

Price is a bit higher than I had hoped for though. Anybody looking to try this?

Looks like it can do everything perfectly well, I might not even need a blade to glue it on, it is so perfectly balanced, surely a "must buy" 😂

I might in the future. But there isnt really any fh rubber i want to try for pairing with it.

Yikes, just bought a Moon Pro to go take it for a test in around a month until the end of the season. Maybe im gonna go with another backhand test

Ohh but there IS, the perfect matching FH rubber. You MUST try it.

It's the same ITTF number on the topsheet than the Moon Speed. I assume it's the same topsheet, only the sponge is different.

I will pass on this one. I have a 729 dragon L on the way. Looking forward to test it.

Im not interested in a H3 clone. If there was a 09c clone, then id be interested in testing it. Something that might rival Jupiter 3, then yeah.

Yes thats what the branding even says. It pairs the existing moon speed topsheet, which i already really like. The sponge rivals jp or de sponges. Im not sure if this 53 sponge actually is imported

Jupiter, moon, mercury and maybe even mars , they are also likely to be clones of some other rubbers. There is not much new under the sun

Have you ordered a soft or a medium soft Dragon L?

I already have normal Moon on my backhand and have already bought both regular Moon Speed and Moon 12 Blue to try. So I'm resisting the urge to get this one too.

For my fellow Moon users, which Moon would be the next logical step for my BH as a beginner?

Well the original Moon is quite old and outdated by now. Moon Speed is still a pretty decent rubber. Not quite at the level of ESN rubbers but still pretty fun to use. Moon 53 is a step up and supposedly on par with Vega Asia.

Medium soft.

I did now find it is a great profit for me to revert to the old-good organic glue and non-tensor sponges with a solid structure. A piece of acrilic sheet is needed to enhance the "inflating" effect of hexane solvent to a maximum.

Be happy.

I am interested to buy one of Yinhe moon speeds for BH, considering moon 53, 12 and regular. Can you please list the difference between regular moon speed and moon speed 12.

I've tried regular Moon and Moon 12 Blue. Of the two, I liked Moon 12 Blue more. It really excels in blocking and driving shots. My backhand skill level is not good enough to be consistent with it on BH loops, open-ups, and flicks however since it's a bit too bouncy for me. I used the medium soft sponge but maybe medium sponge may have been a better choice.

I've been using Loki Rxton 1 Plus for my backhand the past week and find that it's much better suited for me to develop my BH topspin techniques. No other rubber has felt quite as good on my BH as Rxton 1 Plus. My consistency has shot up dramatically.

Thanks for reply! Will add Loki Rxton 1 Plus for possible BH rubber list.

Be twice alert. It is a bastard product, to get around set laws. Older topsheet combined with a novelty rubber in defiance to ITTF Directives.

How experienced of a player are you and how do you play your BH? The rubber is not very bouncy and can be slow if you're used to tensor rubber. This is ideal for me since there's enough dwell and grip for me to develop my BH topspin and loops. It can also be good for experienced players who can put power into their BH and want immense control. You really can put a ton of power into your BH shots and the ball still finds its way on the table.
