Note :- 1. Some brands available in different sponge types Ex:- 999,Tackiness 2. For reglued rubbers values in parentheses for chop & counter-chop indicate difficulty of execution but also good results when stroke is executed successfully. 3. For anti rubbers, values in parentheses are while used in combination rackets, that is the same stroke first played with one side & then played with opposite side successfully with proper racket angle. 4.All rubbers will behave very differently when reglued & not reglued.Some can be used in both modes (Juic Spinspiel,Tacckiness Drive,730-Super).
