The most notable difference in the Armstrong Attack 8 is its 1.2mm pimple height, compared to the 1.0mm of standard short pips rubbers. The Armstrong Attack 8 is known for its "knuckle effect," which disrupts the opponent's rhythm by producing unpredictable ball movements. This makes it a formidable choice for players looking to add an element of surprise to their game. The standard version of the Attack Eight features a sponge hardness of 40°, ideal for balancing speed and control. This hardness level provides a solid foundation for powerful strokes while maintaining the precision needed for strategic shot placement. This rubber gained considerable attention when it was used by the renowned table tennis player Ai Fukuhara. The M version has medium-diameter pimples, and the L type has larger-diameter pimples, both made in Japan. The Pimple height of 1.2 mm is shown on the rubber cover, which might be confused with the sponge thickness.
