No way! I literally bought a sheet of Rozena about 4hrs ago. Thanks for suggestion dude, seems we were thinking the same thing hahaha!Rozena
CheersRozena could work if you’re looking for catapult effect but with control. If you want to
play the Chinese style(perfect technique), you should play hurricane 3 on both sides.
how does H8 sponge compare to H3?Boosted H3 or H8
Appreciate the advice. My TT journey started as a teenager, developed decent technique, especially BH and then ruined everything by getting overexcited and splashing over $200 on 2 tenergy 05fx with 5ply andro carbon blade. It ruined my table tennis for so many years until I finally understood that I need to go back to basics. Ever since I feel allergic to European style tensor/ catapult effect rubber and enjoying my table tennis again with DHS/ Yinhe style tacky/mid hard rubber and 7-ply wood blade.I am using H3 (non Neo) on FH and Donic Accuda S2 on BH. Accuda is similar to Rakza 7 and comes in 3 different hardnesses. I could imagine that DHS tinarc could work as well.
On BH need some catapult but don’t want too much …
When you are a beginner you don’t know what you like so the key is to not spend too much money. If you go for slow equipment you will learn faster.

Sorry but either are shitty af as a beginner. Way too hard either way and hard to learn or do anything with as a beginner.Cheers
how does H8 sponge compare to H3?
It's a little bouncier than H3. Also I find that it also has a stronger reaction to booster than H3. H8 boosted is probably my favorite rubber on bh, and even on fhCheers

Also, I have Rakza 7 on all wood 7 ply blade but I cannot just agree with it. arc is too high for my liking with sub-par spin. this is why I want something slightly harder and grippy for BH to pair with H3 FH.Appreciate the advice.

Yeah H8 would be a good fit. Other Big Dipper on bh. Or one of the Euro hybridsAlso, I have Rakza 7 on all wood 7 ply blade but I cannot just agree with it. arc is too high for my liking with sub-par spin. this is why I want something slightly harder and grippy for BH to pair with H3 FH.
Ok, my brother has H3 and I've played with a lot on FH. My FH loop is ok with it so I know my margins for error with H3. Suggesting Yinhe, I also have Big Dipper which for me is an insane for FH if you have good topspin and loop, but moon 12? I'll check it out. Thanks dude.Sorry but either are shitty af as a beginner.

If you have a coach who can teach you to do the necessary strokes for these rubbers than maybe... But the learning process will be stressfull and frustrating.
My suggestion would be yinhe moon blue 12 (softest version) because it can give you enough backup, with clear feedback and enough room for error.
Perfect. I had a feeling that H3 with H8 backhand could be a good pairing. Cheers dude.It's a little bouncier than H3. Also I find that it also has a stronger reaction to booster than H3. H8 boosted is probably my favorite rubber on bh, and even on fh
Exactly but backhand is a totally different story. You cant use your body in the same way (approx around 20% of the power can generate on your fh) and it relies way more on your forearm and wrist motion.Ok, my brother has H3 and I've played with a lot on FH.

Which H8 version / hardness are you using?Yeah H8 would be a good fit. Other Big Dipper on bh. Or one of the Euro hybrids
I have H8 37d for bh with 2 layers of booster. Its just outstanding responsive and grippy rubber. It grabs the ball so much better than tensors.Which H8 version / hardness are you using?
How much booster?
How does it compare to things like D09c, LAC or some of the hybrids you know.
I am not totally against these kind of rubbers for backhand, but for a beginner, something more easy to use with good spin would probably be better.
I was very contempt with TSP ventus speed on backhand.
Good for pushing, blocking and spinning most shots and landing them on the table.
Unless the beginner has access to very good personal training and is willing to that way, hard and tacky rubber should come a little bit later in the development phase, imo.
I just bought a H8 37 from Aliexpress, it's practically impossible to find it elsewhere.I have H8 37d for bh with 2 layers of booster. Its just outstanding responsive and grippy rubber. It grabs the ball so much better than tensors.
Its way tackier than d09c, also softer, and faster with booster.
Lac is really good for fh, but its quite hard for bh. It might be good boosted, but i havent tried because of bubbling.
