Why? I have found many discussions on different behavior between red and black sheet of the same rubber, so I wouldn't be surprised...

I hear red cars are faster than black ones, but I don't believe it.

This makes sense though.

I am in rubber business. Tolerances in rubbers are large. Manufacturers can only guarantee their thickness within +/- 10% from batch to batch. Within a batch tolerance is much tighter , around 5%. So whoever claims red and black cause performance difference is ignorant of this fact.

For example,

Red vs Black table tennis rubbers

This article described the difference in properties between red and black table tennis rubbers. Although for some rubbers the difference is insignificant, for others there is a distinct difference that players can take advantage of. Why not choose the best combination for you?

That article is an opinion piece. If there is any reason to believe what they say is true, they don't even attempt to support it with their evidence.

Well yes I do, its called science. Unless there is some science showing different colors have different effects on the ball, then it's all opinion and worthless anecdote.

I'm impressed how well-educated you are. Wow, it's a science! I always thought it's a pure alchemy and black magic. Thanks a lot that you opened my eyes, I really appreciate it.

Absolutely not, I did the same and was waiting to see how long it would take for You to discover that Your one ply Hinooki with Tenergy05 was suicide...

I really think You will improve a lot, just don't give up it will transform Your strokes specially on FH.

I play with a Petr Korbel, does that count to be old school? I think it was first produced in 1996.
