Ok, I played with it.

Speed: Omega Asia V > Rising Dragon >> DHS Hurricane NEO3
Spin:  DHS Hurricane NEO3 >> Rising Dragon > Omega Asia V


I would describe Rising Dragon as slightly slower and slightly spinnier version of Xiom Omega Asia V

I personally liked it.

Hard to say : RD is Made in China but R9 is made in Germany . They are different. However, RD is pricy in considering a piece of rubber made in China

R9 has a shiny top sheet not tacky(sticky)just like R7 and unlike RX which has a flat color top sheet. I think the Rising Dragon is a Chinese top sheet and some what tacky(sticky).I have played with all three rubbers and really did not care that much for the Rising Dragon.
It's no H3..

if H3N ia 1 on a scale of Chinese to euro with tenergy 05 at 10.

is rising dragon and/or Chinese dragon more Chinese or euro?

I want something like H3N for my backhand, but probably a little less tacky

may be a 3 on my scale?

this sounds like rising ddragon, now if they made hurricane 3 neo in 1.9 or 2mm that would be awesome for my bh

I have used YRD for more than 1 year. YRD is a Chinese slightly sticky/tacky and more Euro friction/grippy type hybrid rubber. It doesn't have super-spinny serve or pushes, but you can add more spin with just a little bit of wrist action. Rubber is not super-fast either, and you can hit a lot harder to make it go faster. This rubber is good when you are struggling to keep ball on the table, trouble receiving serve, push returns, opening flick or attacks, moving away from Euro rubbers becos they are too fast, or too soft, or too spinny and overreacting. So for a player developing more Chinese style game, but not fully playing with strong power and spin this rubber bridges the gap. 

YRD gives very reactive return based on input from player. If you wish to play soft touch you can. If you wish to play hard strokes you can without bottoming the rubber or ball flying off. 

YRD is medium-low throw. YRD topsheet helps play brush stroke as well as sink into the sponge strokes as well. 

Challenging to play far-away from table with enough power to beat ball past the opponent. Close- and mid-distance from table works very well. 

Long push seems very sensitive, short push needs more height adjustment probably due to the medium-low-throw.

No.1 reason to buy this rubber ? Quality ! Every batch of rubber is similar to every other batch. Rubber is still so good after more than 1 year and I can still play with same feeling!

YRD Red rubber is softer and seems more fragile less durable. YRD Black is good as new even after 1 year.
