NO.1 table tennis review site

The Harimoto Tomokazu Innerforce ALC racket with the MAX rubber attached weighed approximately 57g with adhesive and approximately 55g without adhesive.

This rubber is a genuinely extremely hard rubber that completely dispels any misconception that it might be usable with Dignics 09C, V20 Double Extra, Hybrid K3, or even without the particularly strong impact characteristic of NUZN 55.

This is because JOOLA rubbers generally tend to have a somewhat chewy sheet and sponge, making it difficult to rely entirely on hardness for hitting techniques, and lacking the softness to provide some compensation. In a sense, many of their rubbers don't deviate significantly from the sponge hardness, and this rubber was no exception. Even with easy-to-hit balls in a single course, I couldn't properly get the ball to penetrate the sponge, let alone in a match setting. Perhaps it might be easier to use with a harder inner or outer racket, but I feel that for the average player, choosing the Dynamic with a sponge hardness of 52.5 degrees is a safer bet.

Feel: Among similar slightly tacky tension rubbers, it gave me the impression of a hybrid K3 with a stronger tension feel in both the sheet and sponge, and a significantly increased sponge hardness.
