fastest short pips

The fastest I tried was Andro Hexer Pips+ vertically aligned. 

what about the flarestorm and raystorm?

flarestorm II is definitely one of the fastest.  I've used TSP Spinpips, Spectol, Raystorm, 802-40, Flarestorm, Flarestorm II, Pistol, tornado ultra, and Diamant all in 2.0 mm, but have recently tried Joola Express Ultra and have to say this is one of the fastest.  These pips don't produce much disturbing or sinking effect, but they have a higher throw than Spectol, Raystorm, and Flarestorm and are much easier to play with.  I would say they are probably about the best SP I've ever played with.  My daughter played with Raystorm and Spectol in 2.0 and max on her FH and kept hitting every 3rd or 4th ball into the net.  After playing 1 time with Ultra Express in max she hits 20 or more in a row with no problem.  What an amazing difference! She is much happier with them and will stick with them.

Hammond FA is quite fast!

I was fairly disappointed with Spectol speed sponge, I found it slower than Flarestorm and hard to use, Flarestorm at least had a lower throw angle. It might be the different blade I have it on, but I like short pips with soft sponges, Nittaku Moristo SP on my blade at least, is quite fast but I can retain the touch I need and I'm pretty happy with it. Maybe they work better on the backhand than the forehand, or harder blades.

Acudadave, how soft is the joola express?

I had to dig out the package, but it's the 21 Offensive sponge, so...I dunno. Probably not suited for an blade like a Firewall. Was thinking of pulling it and my Globe 888 (which I love in my brief hit btw) and putting it on my Hurricane No.2 blade, which is harder.

i dont think so... last i heard clippa is a classic short pips, meaning its not one of the fastest anymore. im looking for short pips with tensor sponge, same as xtend po and rakza po..if you guys are going to tell me flarestorm or raystorm...last i heard they have the same sponge property as bryce. meaning they are fast but still do not utilize the a tenergy-like sponge, which is what i'm looking for

yet they still made a short pips with a tenergy sponge, in the form of rakza PO

i just hope butterfly will someday make a short pips like that...

try Joola Ultra Express...they have built-in speed glue effect and are very fast.  I've played with Raystorm, Flarestorm, Flarestorm II, and some of TSP's SPs like Spector and Ultra Express are about the best.  Fast with higher throw and good spin capabilities for a SP.
