Chinese Rubbers

Hi guys,

My friend will be going to Beijing and TianJin in about a week. I would like for him to get back some rubbers.

1. I use H3 and Globe999...so I am asking him those. Should I ask any specific H3? I have heard about national, prov...etc. 

2. Anybody knows how much these rubbers cost in China?

3. Any other rubber (Chinese rubbers) I should ask, which is pretty good but difficult to find here?

Thanks.

* maybe you can get an idea of the prices from these sites.  Not exactly but hopefully at least close to what you need.

Hi Sean!...thanks for the welcome.

Your links are pretty helpful, I will ask my Chinese friend to translate.

Acc. to pingpongs post my friend will be unable to buy a h3 national from the street. I generally dont like 729 prods. I think I will ask him to get Skyline 2 or 3. There was a link from seans post...which was interesting:

Hurricane 2	Hurricane 3	Skyline 2	Skyline 3
characteristic	Speed rubber		Control rubber
	speed+spin	speed+control	control+spin	control+speed
Use effect	Swift and fierce attack		Exquisite control and stable attack
Introduced time	Year 2000		Year 2006
representative represent	Wang Liqin	Liu Guozheng	Ma Lin	Wang Hao

If the above is true, I think I will prefer the Skylines over H, perhaps Skyline 2. How does the cost of skylines compare to H3?

That graphic says that H2 has more spin than H3, but H3 has more control.  I thought H3 had more spin and H2 more speed when I tried them.  Maybe it was my sheets.

8-10 for dhs stuff, globe stuff is like $5-7

Thats great ttman! Thanks for the reply.

Sky3, Globe999, Dawei 388A, milkyway 9000-E are the rubbers I may ask him to get. Any other good ones?

ya...take venus ...take cj 8000....take skyline 3 (but it's expensive)..and some ppl said...dawei 2008 xp is very good..anyway..don't take prov. H3 or national H3....cuz you can't buy it on the street(mostly are fake...99%)...unless you know some team members...not even coah..

Hey,

Globe is pretty tacky and a good for the looping game.  Can get any softness of sponge as well.  I don't really like H2/3 for looping, but the Skyline is not bad since it comes with softer sponge.

If you want to try something different from 729 Friendship.  Try the Focus 1,2,3 rubbers in 2.2mm.  It's not really tacky but is very grippy.  Is very elastic and has some pickup once it hits the table.  It's probably really cheap in China so wouldn't hurt to try it out.  It is different than the other rubbers 729 has.
