Well I picked up sopme super bands for my Star Trek, and my MET. They looked great on both machines.

They where terrible on Star Trek, I could barley keep the ball on the PF. Way to many air balls. Made the game play way to erratic, and the ball was very hard to control. I liked the way they felt when shooting the ball from the flippers, but that was it. Everything else took a large turn for the worse from a contol standpoint.

They felt slightly better on MET, but the same overall effect was had. The balls would actually slow down when transitioning from the in-lane to the superbands. The ball actually stopped on the super band a couple times from the spin it had on it, which acted like brakes on the super band.

They lasted two days on my machines, before I went back to the stock rubber. It's really to bad, as they looked great, and I wanted to like them, but NOPE. Not for me!!!
