Table Tennis Rubber: Sunflex Rubber Zeno

Description

Sunflex Rubber Zeno

As one of the world’s leading manufacturers of table tennis equipment, Sunflex usually provide their know-how to other, better known brands. However, Sunflex also offers its own competition rubber and blade product lines featuring technology specially adapted to the plastic ball.

Tense Up sponge – The unique polymer combination creates a high-tension effect inside the sponge. The special polymers increase the tensile strength of the inside walls in the sponge pores. This technology is specially geared to the plastic ball.

The Zeno can be regarded as one of the most interesting rubbers, perfectly combining Chinese and Japanese playing properties and particularities. Sunflex’s developers have equipped the soft yet tacky top sheet with a relatively hard Tense Up sponge. In contrast to many Chinese rubbers, which have the desired tackiness, but are not that easy to handle due to their hard surface, the Zeno offers a perfect solution.

The rubber allows for a lot of rotation, which makes the opponent’s life difficult during serve and return. High-rotation topspin strokes can be performed effortlessly even when playing with the new plastic ball. Still, the rubber provides enough vigour (in contrast to many tacky Chinese rubbers) thanks to its modern sponge, which is specially geared to the plastic ball. All of this makes the Zeno a great rubber for modern offensive play with frequent high-spin strokes.
