Der Materialspezialist Spectre - Long-pimpled rubber with much potential!
With the Spectre, Der Materialspezialist has designed a new rubber that will likely convince pimples-out fans. This rubber is available in 6 colors: red, black, pink, green, and blue. Of course, all these colors are ITTF-approved!But let us now get to the "inner" properties of the Spectre. The manufacturer advertises this rubber with a newly developed pimple structure. They are highly elastic, long and softer with slightly ribbed heads. Additionally, there is an extraordinary rubber blend (judged as soft to medium-hard). The question now is of course - What are the resulting gaming properties? With respect to the Dotz test, the Spectre appears slow rather than fast. What does this mean during the game?
In general, this long-pimpled rubber is primarily designed for the disruptive game close to the table. Actions from the mid distance are also possible, however, these need clearly more physical effort when doing the strokes. Safe blocks and hard topspins go off the hand very good. Usually, this can be done with a quite open head and a relatively loose wrist. These balls also exhibit a quite flat and short trajectory. Another pro of the Der Materialspezialist Spectre is its insusceptibility to rotation: this rubber only "accepts" very little spin and generally appears quite soft. All in all, you can easily return hard strokes and/or finishers coming from your opponent. During half-blocks, you can generate much backspin. This will definitely surprise your opponent. One can see that the Spectre is a great rubber also during the passive game.
The balls leaving the Spectre also have the property to drop down in an unpleasant manner, including a fluttering effect. Due to the wide range of available rubber thicknesses one can also obtain a relatively offensive character, especially when simultaneously acting in an aggressive and active manner. Speaking of which: the offensive suitability of the Spectre from Der Materialspezialist should indeed not be underestimated! Straight and open counters following backspin can result in truly dangerous balls (e.g., by descending balls). But still, one should keep in mind that there is always quite good control and that this rubber forgives quite some errors.
Der Materialspezialist Spectre - brief summary
Similar to its availability in many different colors, Der Materialspezialist Spectre is truly a variation artist when it comes to gaming properties. This is not least due to the different available rubber thicknesses. The major strength of this long-pimpled rubber is the disruptive game close to the table. From there, you can use the Spectre in a more offensive way. Fast blocks, descending and down-dropping, dangerous balls, and even pseudo-topspins represent some important features. However, one should bear in mind that in these cases you need to take the initiative. Finally, this rubber is also characterized by a truly fair amount of control making it an appealing possibility for pimple fanatics.Additional Information
