We have some guys here who had paddles in their desks for around 25 years.  They would clean them right after playing, and they kept them in a climate controlled office in cases with paper sheets over the rubbers.  They actually played pretty well.

As an EJ most rubbers I have are less than a year old and frequently I am playing with something new or with less than 30 hours of play on it.
 
However, my backhand rubber is (estimated) about 3 years old and likely has 100's of hours on it. It's been owned by several people.
 
Ironically, what makes it a good rubber is the wear to the topsheet. It's really forgiving for service return, and is still able to create enough spin on active shots.
 
I'm almost wondering if I need to start "circulating" 1.5mm sheets of Red 729 FX-EL to people at the club so they can be broken in for me when I am ready to replace this one :)

I was at a tournament in OKC about 2 years ago and saw something which blew me away.  A kid was there using a paddle that was "just his dad's old paddle."  I recognized the rubbers from across the room though.  He had a yasaka blade with two beautiful gold sheets of tornado.  And they were in near new condition.  I guess his dad had wrapped up his setup years ago in plastic wrap and just put it away.
 
Wow, made me sad for the two color rule.  Sorry post originator...your srivers would have to be green to compete with that!  And markV would have to be blue.

a guy I played two weeks ago was using the same sriver as in the 2nd post of the OP, and believe me he could still serve very spinny with it.

i have a bunch of old coppas 2.1, some skitt even before the rubber turned over to donic, mostly all black, some of them are not in bad shape, you can always condition the topsheet with olive oil and then liven the sponge back up with paraffin oil, if there are any lovers of this rubber let me know and we can work something out, i will do the cheap restoration treatments for you also

I've had Srivers like this with the "burned look".  I pretty much donate my old rubbers to kids in the club.  Gotta keep the "new blood" of TT alive.

So these are not made by Donic? I thought Coppa was their rubber? I have a sheet of 1mm Armstrong Prexy from around 1984 on a nice thin but standard width varnished TSP basement blade which was the only ST handle I ever found comfy. Was great for all shots.

wasnt there even banda coppa? i am not sure, i think skitt might have broke off from banda, then became a sister company of donic, and ultimately the coppa rubber became a donic rubber, this is the standard coppa similar to sriver or mark v, not the new tensor versions, i will post some pics when i get a chance of the two different versions

Super Sriver sucks.  It is a slower, yet still firm version of regular Sriver.  I don't really remember how it was on glue, maybe it was ok, but I used it without speed glue back in the day and I much preferred regular Sriver and Mark V over it.

super sriver was designed for flat hitters. I would like to try this rubber but it doesn't make sense because it's not ittf approved anymore.

The sheet of Nanocannon I have.  Was given to me used with probably good 6 months to a year of wear and lied around to oxidize for another year, then sold to a basement player who sweats excessively then given back to me after another year of usage then I used it for 3 months.

I have a brand new, packed sheet of Butterfly Renova which is not even manufactured anymore. I don't know when it went out of production but the sheet I have is easily about 15 years old.

I have an around 30 year old Yasaka Tornado new in packet, in my opinion the best looking rubber that's ever been made, never understood why they dropped it and yet kept mark V either, They changed it to Black/Red for a few years after the colour rules then dropped it. I'll repost the picture for Coles enjoyment. You have to see one in person to appreciate the quality of these old sheets, it looks and feels exactly like the day it was made and is flawless

SUPER SRIVER CLAMMY TO YOUR FINGERS, LIKE A FROG.

Ha a két rész között jelentős eltérést tapasztalunk a súrlódást illetően, akkor itt vana csere ideje.
Tájékozódásul érdemes néhány Butterfly ütőborítástípus paramétereit szemügyre venni.

    A gumi neve               A dinamikus CoF        A rugalmasság mértéke   
                                  súrlódási együttható        by ASKER hardness scale

Super Sriver                      3,11                            68
Sriver                                2,78                             70
Tempest                            2,52                             69
Allround                            1,75                             67
Sríver killer(antítopspin)      0,65                             57


A legkiválóbb játékosok ütője drága eszköz, ugyanakkor nagyon
kényes is. Ez utóbbi lényegében minden ütőre vonatkozik, ezért óvn.

I have an old sheet of Butterfly Sriver Killer (anti) lying around somewhere, over they years it has been cut down to fit ever smaller rackets, now it only fits my smallest blade.  It's been on and off so many blades, the sponge has gotten very thin, but the surface is still very slick.

Almost forgot a sheet of Butterfly Feint Long (the original version) that is only a few years newer than the Sriver Killer.  They should make this legal again, should work well with the new bigger balls. Evil Smile

Hi SJan sock##.  Wacko  Sorry, that wasn't me, I didn't say anything about a student union, someone else did.  

But at least you are consistent as always, still confusing posters, and still fighting the same old battle from the past.  I still remember that BFL, it was the first long pips I used, and after all these years and lots of other pips, it was still the best long pips I ever used.  The game has changed so much since those days.  If it was allowed back, I would have to try it out, nostalgia, would be a strong motivation.  Sorry if I'm stepping on your territory.

No it is absolutely you according to him.  He said you conveniently forgot.
You also used to deny you used Feint Long.
 I don't know who sjan is .

I never said you mentioned about student union. I did .  He said you & him played there in that house two blocks from student union at least 5 or 6 times. That is where you pulled out your Feint Long Black with Black smooth rubber first. And you used to deny you ever used Feint Long

Nobody is trying confuse anyone.
I just asked BAAL , what is wrong with fighting old battles . Also you yourself just said the Feint Long should be legal again & that rule is 21 years old.

Also there is not statute of limitations for .......never mind , will comment later at the right time
