Hello everyone!
We are going to try long 
pips by Der Materialspezialist -
L.S.D. Extra Long sponge 0.8 mm.
The blade is Red+Black Pride D.
BH we'll play chops and pushes.
Also we will play
blocks and drives.
Andrei will loop against me.
His setup is Apolonia, Jupiter II 
medium and Venus III medium.
Firstly, the pips are not slow.
They are not grippy.
In the far-zone they are quite aggressive.
All the chops tend to fly to close the far line.
Returning backspin is above average.
The control is good.
It's a bit fast for me after my grippy pips.
Jump-off is not slow and to the far
 line or sometimes it was even behind it
I liked it.
Pips are widely located
There is good reverse on the table.
It's comfortable to play blocks and drives.
I suppose these pips will be
 good in OX for blocks
on some slow blade.
It'll be good in chop-blocks, 
pushes and lifting.
In the far-zone they are not perfect but good.
There is reverse above average.
If you get used playing 
in both far- and near-zone,
in all-round style, 
these pips may suit you.
