Thank you all for the reviews

I don't have a sheet of MX-P handy at the moment, but I used to play with it when it just came out. One thing I can definitely remember is the quite noticeable shrinkage of MX-P once the booster airs out. Whereas after a month of use and a couple of re-gluings, Hype Kr has not shrunk at all.

No shrink, I don't know anything about this rubber but it take my attention lol.
I love mx-p but the shrink thing is really bad.

So, here is the promised update on Hype Kr on FH of an OSP Expert after using it 2 (well, actually 3 since I played 11+7 matches in both open and O40 events on same day) tournaments.


* Hype Kr is definitely a faster/more lively/lower throw rubber than EL-S let alone MX-S.
* Had to adjust my service action a bit (mainly lower ball toss) in order to keep the serves short.
* No complaints in the spin generation area.
* Really shines in the 3rd ball attack area and when counter-attacking but one needs to hit with a more closed bat otherwise it is easy to overhit.
* Still does not seem to have shrunk at all.
* No loss of topsheet grip yet.


Decided to keep using it till the end of the 2017/2018 season (or till it dies).
