Table Tennis Tips

A real low and short no-spin serve can give you some easy points in matches, as they are difficult to flip hard, and they require good timing to push hard. Mix it up with a heavy backspin in the same spot. Remember to get it short, the ball should bounce short on your side close to the net...

 729-2 Sensor (new version)

Latest Development from 729. This product is engineered to provide firm traditional power with the ability to loop away from the table.  New 729-2 has the quick power close to the table that has made Chinese rubbers so successful in dominating world class table tennis. 729 Chemists and formulary experts have found how to add away form the table power in addition to the traditional Chinese over the table attack. This product plays smooth with surprisingly good control for a rubber so quick.

Characteristics:

  • Speed 12

  • Spin 11

  • Control 10 

  • 2.2mm Special Sensor sponge.

 729-2 sensor reviews:

A quick 729-2 review:

This is NOT the same 729-2 from the past! Not only is the topsheet just slightly tacky when opened, the new tensor sponge is very forgiving and is in the 38-40 degree range. It kicks hard when glued and counter looping from mid court but still allows me to drop some of my 2550 levels coaches serves! The glue really is noticable on the top end but does not kill the short game and with the glue ban this rubber should become very popular.

 

The topsheet is supple and once the slight tack is gone you will be surprised at the feeling you are getting from what used to be a real rock of a sheet! Why the creative team at ZeroPong was not consulted when the naming was at hand is beyond me as many ppl with bad memories of the old -2 will avoid this sheet not knowing it is a very different animal!

On serves I would give it a 9 out of 10 as you can over spin the ball!

Serve return gets better as the stick wears off so it goes from 8 to 9.5

Opening 10, very spinny or very fast you can decide!

Looping again starts lower and goes to 9.5 or 10 with glue.

I tried to cover the bulk of the things I do with it as I have an all around game from the forehand and have yet to see the limitations of the rubber when compared to my level (1800-1850 ish). – Review by Loopsteady (with permission)

 

Review by Glenn (published with permission):

Speed and Spin and Control is rated without speed glue in comparision to other rubbers without speed glue. I would rate Tenergy as 9.5 or 10 for spin and NEW hard tensors as 9.5 or 10 for speed.

The Tackiness of the rubber is obvious especially for the black one. However, this is only there initially. The tackiness disappears after time, and the rubber becomes a grippy one that NEVER STALLS on me before. (Unlike even roxon or an old sriver).

I rate the sponge hardess as medium compared to other Chinese rubbers. Its pretty hard compared to tensors (yes, even the so-called hard sponged Roxon 500 kind).

What i like about this rubber is the excellent control and many gears it has. I think it misses a top gear that would be there if you speed-glued it, but its sufficient when combined with a fast blade close distance to mid distance. One would have to generate his own power to take full advantage of this rubber.

A very durable rubber at a cheap price. Outstanding control. Definitely more than a match for srivers to me.

(not for those looking for extremely fast speed-glue effect rubber - this rubber doesn't have any)
