Hi Samuel,

They suit players that play close to the table and like fast flat rallies.

If this is you then it may be a good choice.

Of course there is not one type of rubber which is the right choice for everyone.  Horses for courses as they say.  If you are thinking of trying SP or any other type of rubber, one thing you might do is to watch good players who use that rubber and see if you like their style and want to emulate them.  For example, for SP, you could watch some He Zhi Wen videos or Australia's Miao Miao.
