About Grass Ultra
Grass Ultra uses classic (non-tensor) sponge with longer dwell and a more linear feel and a pips-out topsheet. Manufacturer sponge hardness is 0° (Classic); a cut sheet is about 23 g. Factory sponge thicknesses: OX, 0.5, 0.9, 1.2. Grass is Tibhar's tensioned long-pips family (D.TecS, D.TecS OX, Ultra) for chopping and disruption.
On the TableTennisReview 0–100 index the Combined figures are speed 44, spin 80 and control 88 (official mapping 44 / 79 / 87). That is a control-first long pips profile for defensive chopping, fishing and disruption. Hardness, weight and thickness above are factory facts — not lab tests.
Community score 8.6 / 10 from 80 reviews. Indicative European street price €38. Compare Grass Ultra with other Tibhar Grass and long pips rubbers on the same scale, or open the catalogue filters for DEF long pips sheets.

Factory thicknesses
Factory options: OX, 0.5, 0.9, 1.2. OX means no sponge. Combined figures describe this SKU; an OX sibling with its own product page is a different sheet.
- OX
- 0.5
- 0.9
- 1.2
- OX
- No sponge. On long pips this usually means more reversal and a deader return; on antispin it is a very dead ball. It is a different SKU from the sponged sheet when the shop lists both.
- 0.5
- A very thin sponge under pips or anti. Slightly more speed than OX, still disruption-first.
- 0.9
- Thin pips sponge. More controllable than OX, less float. A common chopping thickness.
- 1.2
- Mid pips sponge. Faster chops and blocks than OX; less reversal.
Factory sponge hardness is unlisted on this sheet. That is a missing catalogue fact, not a zero-feel rubber.
