Seems to me its like the donic f-2 or 3 sponge underneath.
very fast and spiny for a pips out. |

it's fast for any rubber. similar speed to a new bluefire. spin is pretty high too. Edited by puppy412 - 04/12/2014 at 9:40pm |

i used it for a while couple month back…. For me it is like a hybrid between medium and short pips…comparatively out of the sp i have used i would say Spin: 802>Spectol>F1A>563 Control: F1A>802>Spectol>563 Speed: 563>F1A>Spectol>802 Sink: 563>F1A>Spectol>802 F1A Pro - one of the best at hitting through underspin - Insensitive to spin - great control on blocks - good speed - massive sink effect for a SP Con - not enough spin so your timing have to be really good - it is picky with blades (horrible on the TB t5000 but amazing on a clearfield) |

how come a medium pip like 563 can be faster than a short one?

I had it on a Rendler Offplay and liked it but actually the good ol 802-40 plays better for me.
Not as springy an a tad less speed but better control. just wish it was faster. still looking for a faster sponge to put on the 802-40

also 563 is from friendship/729, so it probably has a 1 dollar sponge. anything is possible but it doesn't sound logical that a 1 dollar chinese sponge is faster than a fast tensor donic sponge. |

ya a lot of people tell me this… i am just not sure about it… Many reviews says F1A is very spiny but also with impressive sink effect and it is insensitive to spin so i got one to try… i was quite impressed with the sink and control but was really dissapointed with the spin to me it had much less spin then 802 or spectol….

is F1A a tensor sponge? the pip has been around for quite a long time now? a couple month back on the chinese forum there was a lot of complaints about how the new sheets of F1A plays different from the old ones… just FYI

top speed term is quite deceiving, you can have same top speed with h3 as you have with tenergy. I see speed more as the speed of the rubber itself without you having to do any effort. you could also call it bounciness in a way. |

right, it's not a tensor, here's the description Infinite tension The DONIC pimple out programme is completed with DONIC BAXSTER F1-A a fast pimple out rubber sheet in FORMULA DONIC technology. The typical softness of the sponge gives a superb feeling for the ball. The BAXSTER F1-A masters ball control in slow rallies, yet gives explosive power for fast strokes. This is the result of the integrated molecular tension of FORMULA DONIC. |

i have not used any tensor pips except Raystorm. It wasn't the best or the worst, kind of average all around for a spinny SP. i have kinda always wondered why there are so few reviews of tensor sp available online... |

I used this for a season. I found it very fast and great for hitting through spin. It also could generate a great deal of spin itself. I hated chopping with it, but hits were sweet.
I have it on my recreational C-pen now, but haven't used it for ages. Might give it a whirl again.
