I have the F version (non-tacky) on a ALC Friendship Blue adv blade and it works very well for me. Just as you say, they are not very fast but with the right combination of rubbers and blade you can have an excellent racket on a budget.
yes I agree on the value for money it is satisfactory, but if I compare it to the loki 3 blue which has approximately the same price, I find it more responsive, more easy to play and with more rotation! I'm going to review the Battle III soon for you and I'm reconciled with the 729 brand ;) because it's really good! Stay connect and thanks to share your experience!
@@TackyRubbers Im from Venezuela and i learn to play with chinesse rubbers, i remember my first blade was a Stiga Carbon WRB with a Reactor Tornado and some Friendship rubber, I loved the sound the ball made when I hit it. Now i move to Spain and they always look me weird when i talk about chinesse brands. I'm going to take a look at that Loki 3 rubber, maybe it will be my next purchase.
Its very cool that you use the tacky rubber because in my sense its the most powerfull weapon on modern table tennis sport because their spin are unbelievable. So on my opinion if you looking for a good combination cheap and good, you can try the loki 3 pro on forehand, and the loki 3 blue on the backhand! Is very stable, comfortable to use, cheap and with a good feeling! I havent found a better choice on this range of price, the loki brand its unbeatable on this point!
Frienship Dragon F & L. Es hat nicht wegen F & L Spin und Tempo zu tun, sondern unterschiedliche Noppengeometrie. Ich habe selber Dragon-F hard getestet. Der Belag ist nicht typisch chinesischer Belag, eher mehr in Richtung europäisch. Der Belag ist katapultstärker. Spin ist etwas weniger als Battle II, dafür mehr Tempo. Man muss mehr tangential ziehen statt nach vorne ziehen. Der Belag möchte aktiv gespielt werden. Passiv ist da nicht einfach zu beherrschen. Daher ist der Belag recht anspruchsvoll zu spielen. Die Spielweise von Dragon F & L haben einen aggressiven Spielstil. Ich bleibe lieber auf Origin und Battle II. Die sind angenehmer und kontrollierter zu spielen.
Hi John, my own experience with the dragon pro f and L was different, I didn't have a good feeling with it an specially on spin part. But the control was good enough, my problem with this rubber is, if I compare him against a same price rubber like the loki brand (loki3 pro or blue) I haven't the same result! The loki 3 is more enjoyable to use and the 3 pro version can deliver a better spin and speed so that's why I was a little bit disappointed! If you have the budget and if you still want test the 729 friendship brand I advise you the battle III is more expensive but its a very good rubber on every shot (long distance,serve,spin speed control) ,in my opinion is the best one on this brand it! Thanks to share you experience my friend,i really appreciate that! And as i always say, if you like a rubber keep it and use it, maybe it suitable for you!
@@TackyRubbers your comment was very helpful and informative. I will take a closer look at the loki 3 pro. Tell me what you say about the palio ak47 red / blue if we compare them with these rubbers that you indicated. I have it and I play with it too but I would like your opinion

I play well with Pro Dragon F on my RPB. Much control and loops are very spinny.
