I can tell you looking at the sponge and the cut that it's 100% a dhs made product.  What it might be like I have no idea.

I have been playing well with tenergy in general and probably should not change

If i tighten up my short serves with Tenergy I will be laughing!!

FYI!!  I then switched back to Tenergy 05fx and won 5 matches in a row and won the Vets consolation event beating several of my peers!!

basically, the rubber is not very durable.

Juanma,  stop posting like that. It is weird and pointless.

So, if you lost while using the T05, would you rip that in half as well?

I believe there is lesson on perceived value buried here!

BTW for stress relief, I recommend buying a stack of Yinhe 9000's. <$5 a pop (for a TWO-pack!!!), you can rip 4 sheets a day on the daily coffee budget. Helps with anger, trust me.

No, lol great advice, I also went back to 1.8 spectol from 1.5 which was much better for attacking too!

1.8 is better for that.  Much better in attacking and lifting etc.

Where do you buy BD4?. It is medium tacki as the first versions of the old model?

I used the old version but finally the last pieces had very few tackiness or nothig and stop to use it.

Thanks in advance

This is a real life example that your equipments do matter alot. 

It is often the difference between losing and winning some tight matches.

People who say equipments do not matter have no bloody clue. 

There is a short video showing the tackiness in this store. I believe it is too tackiness for the 40+ ball

I totally agree!

Hi, must I open a new thread to ask this?.

Thanks for your response.

While I do agree that "People who say equipments do not matter have no bloody clue." I would imagine that the you would have have the same thing happen if you played BD4 for a long period of time and tried to switch back to Tenergy 05fx for a tournament. I'd imagine they are quite different rubbers. I also would be willing to bet that the blades each of these rubbers works best with are completely different blades. I wouldn't just slap an untested rubber on and go to a tournament. That's never a good idea. 

Eric,

I often switch seamlessly between Hurricane and Tenergy on the same day without a negative effect.  But you are right I think generally.

There's a lot of difference between your used sheet of oft-glued h3 and a new sheet, I'd guess.

When I talked to yinhe about them they told me they just got a limited run, and it wasn't really available yet.  If you want to buy mine I'll sell them to you.  If you want me to ask about availability or future availability, I can.  In fact, I will.

I like Hurricane 3 Neo though generally, it just annoys me for its inconsistency in different environments and I find it too slow on slow tables especially when its humid

Thanks for your response.. Pm sent

Hello cole_ely,

I play 3 weeks with Big Dipper IV H40 and I am very satisfied with. I am wondering ,that my rubber is very different product than  old version Big Dipper available in China  , wich have too.

Not only rubber , but package too.

Do you thing  , that this version IV is only limited edition produced by another producer and wil be not produced in the future?

The dipper4 though was clearly a dhs made product.  The sponge was obviously dhs.

Cole_Ely: Thank you very much!

My experience with this two rubber - Big Dipper and Big Dipper IV ,both H40:

Total different rubbers!

1.Big Dipper IV Hardness 40 , red untuned , 20hour playing time on True Carbon blade , Forehand side , Backhand short pips : Yinhe alternative to DH H3 Neo commercial (probably in the new line of Dippers - Spin , Pro , Tour , IV is Version IV substitute for them) , playable less booster , but probably planned to use booster for maximal power and spin. More advanced stiffer topsheet against classical version. Playing characteristic - stiff chinese tacky rubber with slightly tensor effect similar to commerc. H3 Neo.

2. Big Dipper classic black Hardness 40 , white package on Viscaria blade  , after only 1 session: Despite cheaper cost more exclusive package. Due to factory tunning (rubber has foil on topsheet and sponge , sponge has glossy tacky layer on it) is feeling more hybrid , dynamic , softer... More speed than by version BD IV , despite review from TT-Maximum said this on the contrary. Spin is similar , more speed component due tunning , not so easy short play and extrem arc loop vith high spin. Classical Big Dipper is much more similar to Euro/Jap tensor/high tension rubber than version IV , but is still not so dynamic and with only moderate catapult effect. After tests both rubbers I am sticking with cheaper , factory tuned version classical Big Dipper , IMHO best compromisse for my playing style. Very good match with Butterfly Viscaria 92 gramm , but probably with another ALC-ZLC blade too.

Thanks for that write up. Its what I expected.
