I'm a backhand-pips chopper and I have this on my backhand.
It's only a rubber in the ¥1000 range, but this rubber is the best!
The pips are low and hard, so at first glance it doesn't look like it would put much spin on the ball,
but for pushes, blocks, and chops, you can easily mix in both heavy cut and knuckle balls.
Start off receiving with knuckle balls, and once your opponent gets used to that, send a cut ball and you can score straight off the serve-receive.
Also, the push produces a super knuckle ball that takes the opponent time to line up their racket for, so use it at key moments. You can score points with it even without aiming for a specific course!!Also, drives, smashes, and blocks are easy to vary in power and length, really showing off what it can do as a short pips rubber.
Whether you hit it flat or brush it, you still get a decent amount of spin.
I can't do the chiquita myself, so I'm not sure, but I bet this rubber can handle it.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I was a chopper using pips on my backhand.
Maybe because I'd been using an OX (sponge-less) pips rubber, I couldn't handle a sponge-backed unorthodox rubber well, so in the end I went back to OX rubber.
I gave up after about a week, so I think this might be a rubber that splits opinion.
The range of variation on chops is large, so even when I meant to produce a knuckle ball, it would sometimes come out with sidespin and fly off the table.
It's a handful to manage, so I think it's best handled by people who are already used to short pips!Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I'm a chopper who uses pips on the backhand.
This is one of the rubbers I used back when I played short pips on my backhand as a chopper.
The amount of spin you can get on your pushes with this rubber punches well above its price.
I think it suits choppers who prioritize finishing points with spin on their pushes, though this rubber does bounce a bit more than expected.
That said, it has enough power on drives and smashes that even attacking players could use it.
It also has decent speed, so it might suit choppers who are gradually starting to mix in some attacking play as well.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I'm a chopper who uses pips on the backhand.
This rubber was the first unconventional rubber I ever put on after becoming a chopper!
A coach who used to come to our club practice gave it to me as a reward ♪
Its characteristic is that the pips are small and it produces more variation than you'd expect.
The coach who gave it to me called it a "freaky rubber."
First up, pushing.
The pips fold over just the right amount and it gets a bit of spin.
You can control the variation, so it's easy to use.
Next, chopping.
You get an interesting mix of knuckle balls and chops with some bite to them.
No wonder they call it "freaky."
And then, driving.
Even hitting it with a short-pips-style stroke, it bounces decently and you can add spin too.
If you just tap it flat, you get variation and the return comes back pips-like, so make sure to brush it.
For blocking, like with pips, you can vary the return between long and short.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

This is the blade I used up until the winter of my first year of middle school!
This blade's defining feature is that it can handle any rubber.
I used inverted rubber on both sides, but among my friends some had long pips on the backhand and others had short pips on the forehand.
First, the topspin drive.
The drive has no special quirks and is easy to do.
Blocks are the same.
I felt it was a bit easier to keep the ball in check, but nothing out of the ordinary.
The push cuts the ball cleanly. Same here too.In short, this blade is easy to use in every respect — you can play without it bouncing too much or too little!
I'd recommend it to beginners and to anyone looking for stable, consistent play!Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard
