Picked up some super-bands a while back mostly because they are from a local guy/company and partly cause I needed some new bands anyway. I had some black ones on my SF2 and they needed replaced.

I was slightly concerned that they would have too much bounce when the Honda/Bison kickouts popped out the ball towards the flippers. I can tell you they react exactly the same as regular flippers. Added a video (hope it works) to show the natural bounce.[attachment=1180069,undefined]

I also noticed the Guile shot (not easy may I add) is much easier to attain with the new bands. I don't know if it is more control or just the fact I had old rubbers on the machine to start with but it is an upgrade.

I also put them on a rollergames also, they play exactly how the other red ones did. No difference in gameplay and they do look nice. I may be crazy, but the ball seems to move down the flipper more slowly on these than the other rubbers. No proof of that and maybe I was looking for a difference. Didn't result in any change in gameplay though so I may have imagined it.

Well worth the couple of dollars I spent. Will end up putting these on any games I own in the future.

No luck with video, but ill try it again! Is there a upload limit? Video is 6mb.

Can't say I have had that problem yet. Played about 70 games. Seem to work just fine.

Ok, let's see if the video works now! At the very least here is a link. Well worth the few dollars, they work perfectly and add some nice color.

Ok, uploaded it to Vimeo, lets see if this works!

I will mention that this is BEFORE I waxed it, it does have a little more movement up the lane than this. But it does react identically to the old normal rubber bands that went on the flipper.

In short I would reccomend the super bands. There is also no noticeable difference at all in the top flipper for SF2. Plays the same.

Haven't done the posts yet on the SF2, may have to do that one soon! Mine plays pretty easy. I have played alot of games with the original super bands and never had an issue, no wild shot or misplayed balls at all.

I did put them in my stern playboy and that made a world of difference! Made missing the center shot a real Bitch.

As an update I replaced the larger Super Bands with the Smaller ones that are made for the Gottlieb Flippers.

There IS a noticeable difference. I thought it would be no difference but they do play better (specially on longer shots). More accuracy and are a bit more lively. Would recommend switching out the large ones for the correctly sized ones if you haven't already done so on your SF2.

And I stayed with Yellow, liked that look the best. Tried red and blue...Yellow looked the best to me!
