Review of Nittaku Hammond Pro Alpha

I love this rubber! I put this on my forehand and started looping with it, it is great. I flows so smooth and is so fast. Defanaitly reccomended for attackers that like a fast paced game. A little weak on serves though.

Review of Stiga Innova

This rubber seems to be light weight and very accurate. This rubber was what I used at my first tournament and loved it. I still use it on my backhand. It is defanitly not for attackers on the forehand. If you are over 1500 and have a good loop don't get this rubber. If you are just starting table tennis this is for you. It is allround and good for drives. I suggest for players under 1200.
