Yinhe lists hardness either as a Chinese sponge degree or as a named grade. Both are shown exactly as published and are never relabelled Shore A, Shore C or ESN. No reliable official Yinhe list price is published per region, so no price is shown rather than an invented one.

Pips characteristics

Spin reversal is the returned rotation of the incoming ball. It is a separate value from the TTDNA spin rating, which measures own spin production.

Variants and configurations

4 variants

Colour, thickness and configuration are variants of one model — never separate products. Colour never changes a rating, MAX and OX stay qualitative labels, and OX carries no sponge hardness.

Assessment

Super Kim was developed as a high-level long-pips option for attacking and defensive play. Its small pimples and super-soft sponge support controlled first attacks, close-table disruption and consistent defensive strokes. OX is a variant of the same canonical model.

Strengths

  • Excellent defensive consistency
  • Good long-pips attackability
  • Soft and controlled contact
  • Effective close to the table
  • Available in OX form

Weaknesses

  • Lower maximum disruption than VVIP
  • Limited conventional topspin production
  • Requires specialised technique

Best for

  • Balanced long-pips players
  • Defenders who also attack
  • Close-table pips users

Not ideal for

  • Pure inverted-rubber attackers
  • Players wanting only maximum reversal

Known users

Defenders, choppers and disruptive blockers who rely on spin reversal rather than their own topspin.

Yinhe Galaxy publishes no athlete roster for this sheet, so TTDNA shows the player profile it is built for instead of invented names.
