Hi to all...
 
Iļæ½m looking in forum, but I didnļæ½t found this answer to my question...  ;-)
 
In my beginning, use a lot of Srivers FX, and with trainning and trainning, I start to test rubbers with more spin in fore. I tested H2, but strange the harder sponge...Try Hammond (and adore the speed), after try BryceFX...And now, reading in other foruns, resove to test TG3...
 
I like the speed and feel from TG3, but my question is the name of topic...Is the TG3 the chinese topsheet with more spin with sponge more soft??
 
Thks!!!

I also like nice tacky chinese topsheets but prefer softer sponges. Among all the ones I've tried, Globe999 on Saviga sponge (hardness of your choice) was the best. One of the spinniest rubbers with enough speed and very lively play even unglued. Cole can help you if you decide to try it.

yeah, a H2 or H3 topsheet on a saviga sponge, or you could also do 999 on a saviga. Cole sells them

you can choose the thickness and hardness of the sponge any where from 35-45 degrees and thickness from 1.8 to 2.3. If you are interested contact Cole,

You can try Nittaku Hurricane with japanese sponge if you are looking for a topsheet like TG but with softer sponge. Another soft sponge all-chinese rubber is DHS Dipper.

You could try CJ8000 middle table loop/attack model 36-38degree. It is quite soft and tacky.

729 Super Soft FX, i have one in 2.0 and it is very soft and very light
it has written on the back 33*, it feels as soft as my Coppa tagora, only slower

so if u want the softest chinese rubber i think u want the super soft FX

but if u ask me coppa tagora and mark V 30* are waaaay better

do you think you can use Focus 3 without fresh glue? I think not so fast

no it's way too slow for that you must glue it!
 
if you want something chinese and soft without have to using speed glue give spintech Jade SV a try!

LKT Torrent is the best Chinese speed glue effect rubber I've seen so far.

Yes, I've played with it. It's totally different than Mark V. It seems to have a more recent tensor sponge (white, quite soft). The topsheet is very thin, soft and elastic. It has an interesting pip geometry. The pips are conical. Huge on top and becoming smaller towards the sponge.
The topsheet is only very slightly tacky and very spinny. This rubber has a nice catapult effect, good spin and good speed. It's nice for looping. This rubber is good for slow loops which has been a problem with some of the other new speed glue effect rubbers. No problem with Torrent. Torrent is also very good for straight shots e.g. bh counter because of the large pips.
The rubber is more fragile than the other Chinese rubbers I have tried.
Considering it's price this rubber is very good.

Hi to All!...
Iļæ½m testing the recommended rubbers...
 
Tryed Focus III: Really soft and very good feeling.
Now testing LKT Silver Dragon: Good surprise, very good feeling and topsheet more tacky than FIII.
 
My only problem is that in this time, I like very much the spin of TG3...And all other rubbers appear to me with much less spin than TG3 (and really have).
 
With same degree of LKT and FIII, exists some chinese with spin of a TG3 ??
 
Thanks 4 all!
(Iļæ½m the crazy man in my club who testing other materials other than Bty)

Hm I'll still suggest the Globe 999 Topsheet on a 42 or <42 degrees Saviga sponge.

Because:
- Globe 999 = Very much spin; one of rubbers which generates most spin.
- Saviga = Softer feel than the originaal chinese hard sponges. So I'd say take a 42 degrees sponge ļæ½r less. Not the 45!

- Saviga is much springier (like glued euro rubbers) when glued and almost compares to the sound of mambo when glued!

Hey Mutley! I'm here too folk! I have a sheet of the new Juic 999 Elite Nano, have you heard about it? It's very spinny (same topsheet of 999) and very soft (Couga sponge).
