Alas, Saviga is the perfect utility rubber, I can honestly say it's the only rubber I've felt comfortable looping and chopping with in max. Maybe half tacky, decent speed, good spin on high speed shots, decent spin and excellent control on defensive shots.... but unfortunately, discontinued, from what I understand.

It's only mildly tacky (at the start, then it loses all tackiness but maintains great grip). It's the same as the newer Inspirit (not talking about Quattro, just Inspirit). The original Inspirit had a different sponge, then they eventually put Saviga sponge under it, making it essentially the same as the Saviga rubber, so the Saviga rubber is no more, Inspirit has replaced it.
So just buy Inspirit from Cole http://www.colestt.com, it's the same as Saviga. I've tried them both and couldn't tell any difference (though I wasn't using speed glue). |

There is no difference. I understand some company in canada may start carrying saviga in the future but I don't know why they or anyone else would want to pay more for a rubber that's the same thing as a cheaper rubber.

I will agree with what Cole says. I used to use Saviga and switched to Inspirit. I personally believe that they were the same rubber. I couldn't feel any differance.
