Long pips have always been controversial rubbers. This are some of the points made by players that complain on long pips, and my comments on each point
Here there are some tips I find useful to play a long pips style, specially with
chopping long pips (those that have high spin reversal), since hitting long pips don't
allow so much variation. Deceptive long pips (those that randomize spin) can take profit
of this tips too, even if they are not so good for chopping.
That's a tricky question. They have no 'general' performance, since their characteristics have the wider parameter combination and variation range among all the rubbers. Some players never know for sure how to play against long pips players, because all those rubbers definitely don't play the same. In general, long and thin (high aspect ratio), flexible long pips are the best for chopping. Flexible, high aspect ratio long pips will return a lot of spin, and some can be unpredictable. Wide spreaded pips (low pip density) will make the rubber more unpredictable. Rough top sheet (dead) will make it unable to produce spin, While smooth top sheet is spiny. Wide and/or shorter pips with thick sponge are best suited for an aggressive blocking & hit style.
