I am looking for some useful info for two rather old short pips.
One is Yasaka Li&Li, and the other is DHS 652.

[729 fx]

I am not sure about the Yasaka Li&Li, maybe no longer in production anymore.

As for the DHS 652, I know this short pips rubber is used to hit flat, reverse spin and more versatile ("modern" rubber). Compared to Friendships 802 or 802-1 and even the softer 799. these rubbers are very fast, really among the fastest short pips that are around. Counter-punching and driving produces fairly stable topspins, whilst punching kill off a backspin ball produces a no-spin ball.

Most consistent short pips that is easy to play with.

You can read some forumer's review on OOAK forum or table tennis db forum.

I have not come across any Yasaka short pips before. Isn't Yasaka Phantom a long pips? Do you know the names of short pips that Yasaka produces these days?

Yasaka A-1, PB-1, Original T-version, Original Extra XHG are some of the pips out rubber I know manufactured by Yasaka.

I believe Yasaka Phantom is a long pips rubber, but I might be wrong though.
