A quick 729-2 review:
This is NOT the same 729-2 from the past! Not only is the
topsheet just slightly tacky when opened, the new tensor sponge is very
forgiving and is in the 38-40 degree range. It kicks hard when glued and counter
looping from mid court but still allows me to drop some of my 2550 levels
coaches serves! The glue really is noticable on the top end but does not kill
the short game and with the glue ban this rubber should become very popular.
The topsheet is supple and once the slight tack is gone you
will be surprised at the feeling you are getting from what used to be a real
rock of a sheet! Why the creative team at ZeroPong was not consulted when the
naming was at hand is beyond me as many ppl with bad memories of the old -2 will
avoid this sheet not knowing it is a very different animal!
On serves I would give it a 9 out of 10 as you can over
spin the ball!
Serve return gets better as the stick wears off so it goes
from 8 to 9.5
Opening 10, very spinny or very fast you can decide!
Looping again starts lower and goes to 9.5 or 10 with glue.
I tried to cover the bulk of the things I do with it as I
have an all around game from the forehand and have yet to see the limitations of
the rubber when compared to my level (1800-1850 ish). – Review by Loopsteady
