      It's hard and flies well, so pairing it with a bouncy rubber that's hard to control leads to a lot of overshoot mistakes — I think it's better to put on a low-bounce rubber like Hurricane instead.

      Robbing master Hard

      Player reviews

      The feel is just plain hard!
      But even a frail Chinese player can get good speed out of it.

      It pairs excellently with Chinese rubber.

      If you take the ball at a high contact point, you get good shots.
      Loops are tough with this one, though.

    • Rudiger

      Rudiger (Experience: 6〜10 years) Quite hard!

      Player reviews

      First off, the core material is quite hard.
      Because of that, the ball comes off fast — even a light touch sends it flying.

      So naturally, control is difficult,
      and it's hard to serve short enough for a double bounce on the table.
      The ball also flies off before it really sinks into the sponge on a drive, so unless speed is your top priority, this could be tough…

      If you have a clear purpose in mind — like running short pips, or staying close to the table to go for counters — I'd recommend it,
      but I wouldn't buy it just on a whim.
