[/QUOTE]

the black is less tacky than the red so it will have a little bit higher throw.

I appreciate this rubber more and more as my rating has improved(significantly).  Im appreciating slow tacky rubbers more its just that this one is $5 so it represents a great bargain.


[/QUOTE]

i agree with that the black sheet of mine is newer than my red sheet abnd i think the red is tackier than the black one

the black suits my bh more than fh because of the higher throw

the red sheet i glued it to my blade in march 2017 and stills plays great till now and the black i glued it last month

i think till now the durability of these rubbers is very good

The rubber has a medium-low to low throw angle when engaging the sponge for blocking and driving, but becomes much higher when brushing with the very tacky topsheet. Getting that decent throw out of this rubber requires way too much effort though. This discrepancy makes the rubber inconsistent as an attacking rubber on BH, and for FH it is not hard enough for me.

Correct. One thing though this is a speed glue rubber -

Ie, unboosted its slow and steady. Boost it and get out of the way because it picks up speed and spin like crazy


or pair it with an off+ blade and u will find the real mean of speed and spin monsters.

Any decent blade will work. I would suggest an inexpensive all blade

what bladd could be good to attach a 999t for teaching amateurs?

i played with it today for 3 hours session in a very humid condition (70%humidity) and what i notice that this rubber performs very good and didnot affected in any way by the high humidity

its tack was very high and it was slight slow compared to the red one(played with it for 4 months ) obvious during fh countering but during looping,choping ,pushing it performs so great in a better way than the red one

a friend of mine who played with my blade tell me that my blade is faster than his (he has innerforce zlc with t05fx and t05 )

all in all it is a very good rubber really great rubber

by the way my hurricane 8 that i removed from my blade i played with it for 2 years now and still perform very good and i think 999t durability may exceede the h8 ,i wish it happens Smile

there's 44° stamped on the sponge, it feels medium when i pressed my fingers, harder than Airoc S, Evo FX-P, softer than Karis M+, Dhs PF4, 729 XiEnTing.

By reading the other reviews i guess mine came from a bad batch, mine plays just like a japanese classic rubber, the opposite from hard sponge/sticky topsheet

Yes, those are heavy. 999 rubbers have same topsheet, but different sponges.

I remember there is JUIC 999 version ? and the regular Globe 999T version ? Maybe only the Globe 999T is the sticky/tacky  rubber ? I thought 999 rubbers are very heavy ! ? Won't having 2 999T for FH/BH make the racket too much head heavy ?

I have been using a 3 year old 1.5mm DHS PF4-1 that i removed from a cheap premade, my BH flips were deadly because of the tacky rubber and slow speed and my chopping was very controllable and got me some points... eventually the sponge flattened and i had to find a replacement.

I got the Super 999T in red and the topsheet is extremely see-through (doesn't seems promising but we'll see), it's not as tacky as it claims to be, doesn't pick any ball at all.

it's 2.2mm 44° and the bounce is null, even a 1.5mm from a premade had more bounce, it is useless in blocking anything. I do like slow rubbers but i'm struggling with this one.

I couldn't score many points with the backhand flick, it was so unpredictable, sometimes the topsheet wouldn't grab or simply the incoming ball would just not bounce off of it. The chopping went better but nothing out of the ordinary

Maybe i got one from a bad batch but I was expecting so much more from this rubber claiming to be a super tacky rubber with controlled speed. Cry

i specially got this rubber to perform those BH flicks, expecting a low throw tacky rubber. Mine is not tacky at all and behaves just like a japanese rubber, like a slower Sriver. Cry

i tried it yesterday and i usually used it on my fh but yesterday i played with it on bh and i noticed a very strange thing about this ,when y top spin a ball with this rubber on fy or bh the arc was extremely strange the arc begins normally in a reasonable height but when it hits the table it suddenly flatten in a dramatic manner which is something i didnot see with h8 or h3neo which makes it a dead and powerful weapon if u could perform a full stroke fh or bh topspin and it indeed have a lower throw angle compared to h8 definitely especially on bh when doing banana flick

awesome. Glad its working out for you.

Im beginning to feel that slow rubber on a fast blade is the combination for me. 

playing tonight, against a guy who usually beats me 9 out of 10 matches, I was able to pretty much dictate the pace of the game. I wasnt trying to blast kill shots past him, but I could place the ball pretty much exactly where I wanted it, and that led to wins. in the last couple of days we have played 7 matches and I have won 4.

the main things I noticed with this combo (slow rubber with fast blade) are

1. brush loop is sweeeeet. it JUST happens. with no drama. sometimes I dont even think it should still hold the ball but surprisingly it does !
2. backhand block is wonderful - where before I would panic when getting a fast loop shot to my backhand, now I just place the racket where it needs to be and put the ball back on the table - to his wide forehand :)
3. push is excellent as always.

well you really seem to like this rubber ;)
I just put a sheet on my bh since it is the highest throw rubber in decent condition that I have right now.
It needs to be boosted anyways and is best paired with a fast flexy blade. Then I imagine it has enough power. Still, a consistent yet rather harmeless rubber.

Ok guys, new discovery.

Putting this rubber on a fast blade makes it a controllable weapon!

Ive been using it on an all blade. Putting it on an off blade brings the power that may be lacking with slower blades.

I think with an off+ blade it will have more than enough speed for anyone while retaining the control
