Any alternative to TSP Spectol Red

John S Asked 1 year ago

Hello Alois!

Recently I had the pleasure of trying a sheet of TSP Spectol Red and I really liked it. Unfortunately upon removal the sponge tore up severely and rendered the rubber unusable. Thankfully the topsheet is pristine and the sponge came off the topsheet clean but I don't want to use it with an aftermarket sponge because it's not a legal combination.

Now the rubber is out of production and victas hasn't brought it back, is there any very soft and fast short pips similar to this one? I've tried a couple but nothing seems to have that same feeling, I've tried 802 mystery 3, clippa, baxter f1a, Moristo sp but they behave very differently. I like the soft high tension feeling of the red that drops the ball, it's incredibly unique. 

There is stock in a shop in Italy, but with it being out of production, it's not a long term solution to just stock up. Do you have any recommendations? 

Thank you for your time!
