Can anybody give me a quick review on the Higher 3 rubber?
How is it comparing to sriver f.e.x ? with speed and control?
Come on you guys that have tried it ;)

Thanks

It is a little slower than Sriver. But it works nice with speed glue. For sure that it is heavier than Sriver. There is a nice review here http://oneofakindtrading.com.au/729_higher_iii.htm

okey, I saw this review a few weeks ago, was just wondering about the speed, is it only good with speedglue then?

Speeds up nicely if you can tune it or prime it with a few layers of speed glue and give it a little stretch. Higher throw than sriver and lots more spin. Pretty slow straight out of the pack though.

yes the throw it's a lot higher

but it's nice to play, next week i'll be glueing so i'd tell how it really plays.
but it's a very nice rubber, beggining from the package and the rubber itself they all look very beautiful.
plays good and it's cheap, good rubber

They played very nice when glued up.  
 
I have 2 pieces of the Higher 3 rubbers I bought from ZeroPong, cut to the size of the Clipper blade, treated with EE2 and primed with a few layers of glue.  I played only a few matches with them so they are in very good condition (no nicks or chips what so ever since the top sheets are very durable), I will sell them both for $15 + shipping.  I am more into Japanese rubbers now so these 2 rubbers have been sitting in plastic bags.  If you are interested please IM me.

Eacheng have a good offer on Higher at the moment if you can wait a week or two (or more) for it to arrive.
 
 
I prefered it over the Higher3 although there was not that much difference in the way it played.
