I recently came across some interesting descriptions of Andro Table Tennis Rubbers on Jasupo, a major Japanese table tennis products online shop so I thought I’d share some of them.
The Andro Revo Fire is described as feeling and sounding the same as if you had used glue.
The Andro Roxon 330 says it hits like a dream but the description is pretty straightforward, mentioning the “Tensor Bios technology”.
Roxon 500 Pro rubbers are described as being the lightest of the series and the standard among top pros.
The Roxon 450 has the same top sheet as the 500 Pro but is described as providing better stability and control.
Andro’s Impuls Speed is described as the softest rubber Andro offers, and provides the best control for beginning players.
The Andro Plasma 430 is described as something good for any offensive player, while the Plasma 380 is good for players who like an especially soft sponge.
The Andro Plasma Women is described as the first table tennis rubber designed just for female players. The description on Jasupo’s site is a little bit funny using Japanese emoticons and describing the rubber as a “prince riding a white horse”. It also says that this rubber is so good that women who use it won’t have to do any of that exhausting muscle training in order to use it. The final word on this particular rubber is that it doesn’t explicitly say the word “women” on it, so even men can benefit from this great piece of equipment.
The Revolution Quad 420, 450, and 480 are all listed as well, the Quad 420 is recommended for beginner and mid-level players. The Quad 450 has a sponge of medium softness, and is suited to any level player. The 480 is described as extremely hard and designed with top level players in mind.
The description that really stands out here is the one for the Agro Plasma Women because of the way the shop really goes out of its way to write in a girlish style, while the English language Agro site has a very serious tone. I don’t know which type of marketing would appeal to Japanese female table tennis players, but it was kind of funny to read a table tennis rubber described as a kind of “Prince Charming”.
