Bty Ekrips

Has anyone played this rubber? Im looking for something with sriver feeling, but longer lasting, and a little bit more elastic and grippy topsheet would this be similar?

i played this rubber a while ago, and my impression is the rubber is somehow slower than sriver. Yeah, it s more grippy than Sriver, but the feel is not even close. I would say i prefer the Sriver feel. Oh, i really dont like the purple sponge of this rubber, it s kinda weird gluing it.

the feeling of Sriver & Ekrips is almost same. just Ekrips is more grips than sriver.

I had played with Ekrips (2.1 black) on my backhand for more than a year and I liked it very much.  In my opinion it's a very "underappreciated" rubber.

I found Ekrips slightly faster, spinnier and more elastic than Sriver L (which I used on BH prior to Ekrips) and the "feeling" of these rubbers is somewhat similar (I had no trouble switching from Sriver to Ekrips).  Ekrips seemed to have lower throw than Sriver plus some additional "zip" - especially when blocking and driving - great for aggressive, close to the table attacking.

Durability was average, though I didn't speed glue it.

Hope this helps.
