About Blowfish
Blowfish uses classic (non-tensor) sponge with longer dwell and a more linear feel and a pips-out topsheet. Manufacturer sponge hardness is 35° (Classic); a cut sheet is about 41 g. Factory sponge thicknesses: 1.7, 1.9, 2.1. Sold with topsheet in Black and Red; sponge in yellow.
On the TableTennisReview 0–100 index the Combined figures are speed 82, spin 62 and control 84 (official mapping 82 / 62 / 84). That is a mid-to-high speed short pips profile for allround-offensive play that still needs a safety margin. Hardness, weight and thickness above are factory facts — not lab tests.
Community score 8.3 / 10 from 90 reviews. Indicative European street price €32. Compare Blowfish with other Andro Blowfish and short pips rubbers on the same scale, or open the catalogue filters for OFF− short pips sheets.

Factory thicknesses
Factory sponge thicknesses: 1.7, 1.9, 2.1. On pips and anti, thickness changes reversal and speed more than a one-point Combined gap.

- 1.7
- A hitting thickness on short pips. Close-to-table punch rather than a looping sponge.
- 1.9
- Short-pips mid-thick sponge. Blocks and hits; still not an inverted loop sheet.
- 2.1
- The thick short-pips option when the sheet is sold that way. Still a pips-out job.
