    Short pimples with astounding disruptive effect

    KILLER is an astonishing new development among offensive pimple-out rubbers.
    Actually it is a combination of short and medium pimpled rubbers that merges the best characteristics from both rubber types:

    KILLER provides very good attacking possibilities and is thus an outstanding choice for a modern pimple-out game close to the table. The rubber fulfills all necessary requirements for fast counter-attacking and strong hitting.

    The decisive factor is the disruptive effect obtained. The rubber is more disruptive than most other short pimple rubbers and produces a very low bounce.
    Control is excellent and enables the player to “feel” the ball at all times. All in all KILLER is hardly sensitive at all to oncoming rotation.

    With thin sponge (1.5mm) the rubber even enables to produce drop shots and chop-blocking against topspin.

    The rubber can also be used for a modern chopping and attacking game with great control.

    This makes KILLER a “must-have” for most short and halflong pimple players!

    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    An aggressive, high-speed inverted rubber with excellent speed and automatic spin generation capabilities, though control difficulty is a common challenge. Recognized as a 'monster rubber' requiring skilled players.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Automatic spin changes including knuckle shots confuse opponents
    • Exceptional speed producing straight, aggressive balls
    • Difficult control requiring practice and skill development
    • Best suited for mid-court play; unstable for blocking and finesse
    • Larger spin variation and more aggressive than Attack Eight
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveAll techniques including backhand loop drive, forehand loop drive, block, push, and stop are easy to execute with no weak techniques. With proper racket compatibility, it becomes the strongest inverted rubber.
    ▽ CriticalControl is extremely difficult, with even single-course blocks scattering inconsistently. Self-generated spin is challenging; the rubber's main role is dropping balls with knuckles to create opportunities.

      when （Experience：More than ２０ years） It's easy to use (really).

      Reviews by user

      I've used vertical-pimpled short pips rubbers like Spectol, Donuckle, Super Donuckle, Moristo SP, VO103, VO101, and Bagler for many years on my backhand, but I've finally settled on Killer.

      I find it easy to execute all techniques—underspin drives and hits, topspin drives and hits, blocks, pushes, stops, and flicks—and there are no techniques I struggle with.

      Perhaps it's a good match with my racket. It's a Black Balsa 7.0. The 2.0 thickness might also be a factor.

      Baggler was also very good for underspin shots and pushes, but for some reason, I found it difficult to return topspin balls with topspin, and conversely, I felt that the knuckle shot wasn't effective, so I stopped using it.

      I still use VO101. It has good power, so I find short techniques a little difficult, but it has speed, so I use VO101 for singles and Killer for doubles.
