Rubber type : short pips
Firestorm combines a spinny short pips topsheet with a fast, glue effect sponge. This tensioned short pips rubber generates high spin and speed with a strong catapult effect for short pips. You can execute most inverted rubber style strokes while still allowing you to hit through the ball as one would expect from short pips.

16/05/2022 Easy to control and good spin Review by Hector Ponce
Quality
This is the first SP I have ever used, I tried over five different to choose the best match for me (Xiom, Joola, Donic, Stiga...), and I selected firestorm because of its control, as I'm new with SP I need something more likely a rubber, but with the benefits of the pips... for me it is easy to flick, it can add a good amount of spin against backspin (3rd ball attack), and at the same time you can push with a great backspin... the most challenging part to me is to block against slow heavy topspin balls (but it is more part of the SP learning process I guess).

17/09/2021 Think less than regular inverted Review by Amesama(Philippines)
Quality
To keep it short I love it. It's like a toned-down version of Victas 102 yet still as spinny. Control and feel are immaculate. Touch blocks and receives will totally kill the ball's speed. If you receive a ball while digging in a bit of sponge, it's a total beast in speed. Counter driving, you need to close your angle up a bit even when flat driving spinny balls because the SP itself is spinny.

27/03/2020 Im Max way to uncomtrolled for intermdeiate Review by Chris Dotzert
Quality
I played in Max Sponge on Nittaku Septear and it was too fast and unpredictable for me. If I hit well the ball was a sure winner, but for my abilities, this did not happen too often. Most of the time the ball went off somewhere.
I am pretty sure this was my fault. So the conclusion is:
In Max Sponge not for the intermediate players,only for pros or semipros.

25/09/2019 Excellent Short pip Review by Andy Lee
Quality
Much easier to play with compare to Spinpips Red. Use it in my forehand and twitter sometimes. The ball sinks slightly when you do a passive block. Overall, very happy with this. Prefer this over 102

This is my first short pimple. I would like to say thanks for Firestorm. Very easy control short, back hand drive and fast attacking to other side.
07/01/2019 A True Game Enhancer for a certain style of play Review by Lee
Quality
Simply stated, Firestorm is the best rubber I have encountered up to this date, for my playing style. To my knowledge, it is the only currently available rubber with the following desirable attributes. Conical short pips, visually arranged cross-wise (vs length-wise), with smooth, shiny tops. I suggest the result is ideal for the close-to-table player, who primarily drives (vs loops) the ball, who desires relative insensitivity to incoming spin, and who yet desires to play all the shots of an inverted. A major advantageous playmaking quality for Firestorm is to be able to generate fast drives against incoming top-spins and most back-spins . . . one merely adjusts blade angle and then fires away. It can block, push, chop, and loop the ball; but driving the ball in most conditions and against all rubber types is its strength. I’ve tried 1.5, 1.8, and 2.1 sponges on several types of blades, preferring 1.5 on balsa due to its light weight setup, which improves my reaction time while playing close to the table. 1.5 has plenty of speed as well, perhaps even more than that obtained from the thicker sponges. One could argue to used Firestorm on both FH and BH, but I used only on FH. Desiring to use a different type of rubber on BH, my preference is Hallmark’s Magic Pips, with next choices being Globe’s 889-2 and DM’s Hellcat, each one in ox. Thank you, DM, for creating unique Firestorm . . . it can be a true game-enhancer . . . and thank you, TT11, for your great service.

This short pips will really make you play all offensive...I find that it is more linear...I paired it with a medium pips and it is more deadly combination.
03/07/2018 Love at first flight. Review by Jon Bradley
Quality
I played with Victas 101 and it was great for blocking and pushing, but difficult to initiate offense. Spectol red was easier to attack with, but blocks were not flat enough. Firestorm is the perfect combination for everything. Easy enough to attack with and blocks do not fly off the table. I get plenty of spin on pushes and serves. More control for me than I had with Spectol red or blue and much easier to attack with than Victas 101. This is my favorite short pip that I have played with.
