    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly praised for its balance between spin variation and ease of use, this rubber suits a wide range of playing styles from choppers to hybrid attackers. However, its low speed and limited distance generation require careful consideration for backcourt play and against aggressive shots.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Abundant spin variation to confuse opponents
    • Low elasticity enables stable short-range techniques
    • Soft pimples make it relatively user-friendly for beginners
    • Excellent sharpness in cutting backspin
    • Limited speed and distance generation
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveProduces significant variation while remaining controllable within your intended shots with fewer unforced errors. Excellent cutting sharpness and pushes with wide variation, allowing skilled choppers to become formidable opponents.
    ▽ CriticalLacks speed unsuitable for backcourt play. Requires technique and tricks for certain shots like backhand flicks against backspin, presenting difficulty in application.

      Reviews by user

      No doubt about it, the Curl P1 really is easy to add variation with.
      I had the extra-thin version on the backhand of my chopper blade, and I love that I can freely choose to either send the opponent's topspin straight back or turn it into a knuckle ball
      It takes a bit of a knack for how you contact the ball, but once you get used to it I think it's the easiest long pips to use

      Reviews by user

      I threw together a racket for chop practice, put this on the backhand, and hit around with a friend — this was fun

      Chop
      It had a good amount of bite, and I could also add some variation, which was nice. More stable than I expected

      Push
      This was the most impressive part. I could produce pretty fast balls, and above all the range of variation was huge. When I got it right I could even send out a low topspin ball, which surprised me

      Block
      It's not like it doesn't bounce at all, so keep that in mind

      Push (short)
      With effort you can get a decent amount of spin on it

      ONE (Experience: 2〜3 years) Easy to use even for first-timers

      Reviews by user

      I normally use Attack 8 on my backhand.
      A friend of mine was using this on his backhand, so I borrowed it and tried it for one match.
      First off, this rubber doesn't take long to get used to.
      Even I could push properly with it,
      and I could put a normal amount of spin on the ball too.
      Backhand drives are doable if you put in the effort.
      Obviously, if you hit it the same way you'd hit with Attack 8, it won't go in, lol
      Recommended for people trying long pips for the first time.

      Recommended for people who want more stability than the Curl P-1
      The variation is a bit weaker than the Curl P1,
      but with the added stability I think even beginners can use it

      Reviews by user

      I've been using this ever since I switched to penhold pips. I've tried other rubbers too (Glass, Curl P1 Soft, P3, P2, Feint, etc.), but I always come back to this one! In terms of performance and price, it's the best overall. Thanks to it, I'm currently on a 6-tournament winning streak in the city tournament (senior division, 60+). Overall, considering the range of variation, ease of use, softness and everything else, it's the best long pips rubber out there.

      Eastern Pushman (Experience: 6〜10 years) The origin of long pips

      Reviews by user

      I've tried a lot of different long pips, but I always end up coming back to this one. The way the ball wobbles when you push is amazing. The chop has incredible bite, and once you learn that feeling you can't leave it
      If you're not sure which long pips to pick, this should be your first choice.

      Tool lover Unpredictable but amazing control!

      Reviews by user

      I'm a close-to-the-table defensive player. First off, since the pips are soft, they take spin better than other pips rubbers. For someone new to pips, I think P3 alpha OX is a better choice. As for the short game: push - fast; stop - if you lift it slightly onto the ball you can drop it right at the net.
      And above all, the amount of variation on blocks is insane!
      Sorry for the long post.
