Hello Pimplers,
Recently in one of the comments, somebody asked me to analyse the long pips players from India: Manika Batra, Akula Sreeja, Yashaswini Ghorpade or, as I call them, the Long Pips Indian Trident.

Helloo DiegoX,
There is a basic definition error in your post .

None of these 3 players use "long" pips. They use medium pips.
Long pips were banned by ITTF in 1998 and ITTF confirmed this ban with 8 more rule & regulation changes since 1998 .
Rubbers listed deceptively on ITTF LARC as long pips are actually just useless medium pips, especially in the 40+ plastic ball only era

Very true.
All these 3 players use Tibhar Dtec Ox.
This may be the best medium pips in the world of ITTF table tennis but is totally useless in table tennis.
