Anyone know where to buy the Giant dragon talon long pimple rubber in HK.

Thanks, but I like to buy from a stote which can glue the rubber for me. Glueing OX rubber is not an easy task.

I also saw one in Taobao, its only half the price of Yahoo auction. Maybe I take the rubber to stores in Mongkok and see if they have rubber glueing service.

This rubber is popular in US and Europe. According to reviews it is the Chinese rubber that closely resemble the Grass dtecs, but a little slower. And it is only about 30% of the price of dtecs. I am using dtecs now so I would like to compare both.

Is this rubber banned by 乒總, it is in the I T T F approved racket coverings. Just curious that a Chinese made rubber is not easy to find in HK.

Thanks egghead1969, I 've just Google this rubber, there are a couple of online stores in UK, Australia, EBay  plus some stores in Greece and Italy that sells this rubber. In Asia, aside from Yahoo HK auction there is one in Malaysia only. I stop browsing in Google after nine pages. ( too many articles.)

Yes, I've heard of players putting this under sunlight to make the pips softer and frictionless. Don't know if this is true,

Just arrived from Taobao,but no glue sheet.

Yes, it comes with no glue at the back of rubber and not the nice packaging as in your photo. Hope it is not a fake rubber. Btw do you think Komann offers glueing services.

Just try it today for two hours. It seems to have better control than the new dtecs. With dtecs sometimes the ball will go long against fast ball serves. I can also do more attacking strokes with this rubber. I put this rubber on my old Sardius blade whick is more than 20 years old and control is still okay.
