Spinniest non-Butterfly short pips.

Your suggestions?

Please and thank you. 

Friendship 802-40 and TSP Super spinpips

The sponge. The same applies to tsp spectol short pips. The 21 sponge is supposed to have a speedglue effect. It's technically a better sponge than the regular one but they did a pretty poor job of emulating the speed glue feel and still plays better when speed glued.

I've never owned them but I have hit with them before.

I would say TSP Spectol 21 is spinnier than 802-40 and similar in that regard to Challenger Attack.  The rubber Itself feels a lot like Butterfly Challenger Attack, but the pips are pretty normal looking.

if they still make it, winning np8

Hexer Pips is very spinny, spinnier than even some inverted rubbers. Throw angle is actually higher than some inverted rubbers like Gambler Outlaw.

I was also very surprised to discover how spinny this one is

what is "super cpen" 

thanks for starting this thread.

I recently glued back my 802 2.00mm for fun.
I managed to generate some decent spin. I know that SP can generate decent spin and good players can out spin (controlled) they opponents.

I always know that 802-40 is spinny, good to see there are others.
Maybe one day I will buy some for fun.

I remember one place where I heard that, they used to let Chinese kids play with short pips, to teach them how to generate spin with correct body actions. And later they may change them to inverted or continue them with SP. I think this was a long time ago - 38mm days.

For whatever reason, I went with Hexer Pips. They're in the mail.

Except for Tang Peng and He Zhi Wen.

TT newbie wrote: Just a tip: with 40mm ball SP play lost much efficiency compared to 38mm ball era. SP play is basically speed, and 40mm ball is much slower, allowing inverted rubber players to recover from each stroke. I played SP chinese style in the past but since 40mm ball were introduced I never tried it again. And since the game started to use 40mm, never a SP player (among men) had any sucess in high level.

with the introduction of the new ball this year,sp players might make a come back
