I have played with 1mm black Darker Jayro on a Kris 2 blade with calibra lt on attack side. It blocks well, allows some counter drive close to table against topspin, chopblocks, and has excellent placement. It seemed to deceive a player who expected backspin from my service return and would loop off the table. I am not sure what will always be on the ball, but I have won the 8 matches played so far. Deep chops can be done with this on forehand or backhand, and push vs push requires a nearly horizontal stroke, with deceptive return. In the past, I have used meteorite, 959s, 837, phantom, feint, destroyer, octopus, fakir, the old frictionless, cropcircle, et cetera. Now, I use GD Talon, Hellfire ox, and, now, Jayro. I am not yet totally convinced.
