TSP Spectol

As most of you may not know for sure, pips rubbers listed on ITTF LARC are 200% functionally useless in the 40+ plastic ball ONLY era. This section is for discussion about older rubbers from 38 mm ball era & 40- celluloid ball ere that may be still more functionally useful in the 40+ plastic ball era than rubbers designed for 40+ plastic ball ONLY era. This section also discusses new rubbers that are not listed on ITTF LARC but are functionally superior to rubbers currently listed on current ITTF LARC. Contrary to popular myth ITTF is NOT the sole supreme authority on table tennis & you are free to use these super functional rubbers as you wish. The question of who will play against you is a just only a matter of who are your true friends in table tennis & not ITTF rules or regulations especially at lower levels & especially in tournaments not affiliated with ITTF (incorrectly referred to as “unsanctioned” tournaments)

TSP Spectol

I am not talking about the new Spectol Red or Blue (both have specific ITTF Approval codes)

I am told there are two versions of this , the old one that was banned with pip density higher before the 2004 Regulation that reduced number of pips allowed per sq.cm.
The new Spectol is approved by ITTf but has no specific approval code
So I was curious how one can tell the diffeence between new one with less pips & old one with more pips LOL
This is just like Feint Long 2 not having approval codes but having two versions

BTW, the one with more pips will give more spin.
