Does anyone know about these new 2 rubbers from Tibhar?
Hear rumors that they are replacements to DTecs

That is stupid rumor
Because increase of 2.00 to 2.05 mm for maximum allowed pip length would not really help any
ITTF try confuse players between 2.05 mm with best minimum required which is 2.50 mm
Huge difference

Google search for Tibhar Grinder shows nothing

Some interesting fact
I was looking at Tibhar website
The Tibhar Grass (not Dtec) is available with 2.0 mm sponge
That is quite interesting
I wonder if this is new after the 4.05 mm total rubber thickness change of Busan 2024 BGM
Because 2.00 sponge plus 2.05 top sheet is ok
Of course the top sheet pip is not 2.00 mm I think.
So if it includes glue I guess it is within specifications
