About Vari Spin
Vari Spin uses classic (non-tensor) sponge with longer dwell and a more linear feel and a grippy, non-tacky topsheet typical of European tensors. Manufacturer sponge hardness is 35° (Classic); a cut sheet is about 42 g. Factory sponge thicknesses: 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, MAX. Sold with topsheet in Black and Red; sponge in orange.
On the TableTennisReview 0–100 index the Combined figures are speed 72, spin 80 and control 92 (official mapping 72 / 79 / 92). That is a control-first inverted profile for balanced allround play. Hardness, weight and thickness above are factory facts — not lab tests.
Community score 8.3 / 10 from 180 reviews. Indicative European street price €22. Compare Vari Spin with other Tibhar Vari and inverted rubbers on the same scale, or open the catalogue filters for ALL inverted sheets.

Factory thicknesses
Factory sponge thicknesses sold in Europe: 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, MAX. These are shopping facts — Combined speed / spin / control on this page do not change with thickness.
- 1.8
- 1.9
- 2.0
- 2.1
- MAX
- 1.8
- Thinner inverted sponge. Allround and first-upgrade backhands live here more often than attacking forehands.
- 1.9
- The usual club backhand thickness on inverted tensors. A bit more control, a bit less catapult than 2.1 / MAX.
- 2.0
- Mid-thick. Common on the backhand when MAX felt lively, or as a two-wing compromise.
- 2.1
- Still a thick attacking sponge. A small step down from MAX on some tensors — shops treat it as the other FH thickness, not a control sheet.
- MAX
- Thickest factory sponge. Most catapult on a tensor; the usual attacking forehand. Combined figures on this page are for the SKU, not a separate MAX score.
