Obviously you just like to throw around pro names without your own testingRob M wrote:on Friday, September 08, 2023, 09:59
Butterfly Feint 3 or TSP P1r are both classical Japanese chopping pips, suitable for mid to long range defense with occasional hitting.

Filus currently uses Feint 3
Among social rubbers (those listed on ITTF LARC) Butterfly Feint Long 3 & Vistas P1r are ok
But as Igore pointed out, KTL Stranger is much better among social rubber (those listed on ITTF LARC)
ootbs is also correct in the Double Fish 1615 is quite good among social rubbers
1615 somehow escaped the 1998 Durban Aspect Ratio Reduction Regulation Massacre and probably has Aspect Ratio close to 1.3 (AR limit before 1998)
Rob M, you need to stop misleading others with your limited knowledge of long pips & you need to do your research actually playing with these rubbers. Just throwing around big pro names only makes you all the more clueless
Anyway if you want a really functional (supe long pips) rubber that works in the 40+ plastic ball ONLY era, the best currently available chopping rubber is Magic 77.
There may be one or two Indonesian super pips but I cannot say for sure as I have not tested them. Most indonesian super pips are fictionless type only suitable for close to the table blocking type play.
