Evolution Bjorn of built-in power high tension: Anyway, it was research and development on the condition to fly, exactly achieve the same kind of jump with the naming. Ultra-high-performance high tension Rubber "Bjorn", in addition a new know-how in high-rebound performance by the polymer and high-density, was developed. Please growth since the bounce in the opponent's court try by all means experience.

Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary

While praised for its operability and control, this rubber falls short of modern speed and spin performance standards, limiting its practical use to specific applications like short-range play and blocking.

■ Frequently Mentioned Points

Good operability and ball-holding sensation
Difficult to apply spin, vulnerable to third-ball attacks
Inferior speed and spin compared to modern rubbers
Excellent for short-range play and blocking

■ Representative Voices

▲ PositiveOperability is fairly good with a nice ball-holding feel, resulting in fewer mistakes. It's a well-bouncing control rubber.

▽ CriticalUnable to compete in the modern tension rubber era. Good naming sense, but outdated in actual performance.

Honestly, the only good thing about it is the name, haha. It's got that springy "boing" feel, and in an era dominated by modern tension rubbers, it just can't keep up. Its real use is probably as a block-only rubber, put on the backhand of an all-forehand player mostly for show.

Hydrogen ion (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Even so, this was once the pinnacle of TSP's non-tacky inverted rubbers...

Back when organic solvent glue was still allowed, I used this for less than a month, but I did use it.
The handling was fairly good and it had a good ball-holding feel, so I didn't miss much, but it lacked reach and sharpness. With other rubbers that spin well, if I chopped a push hard the opponent almost never smashed the third ball hard, but with this rubber, no matter how much spin I put on the push, they'd still smash it. I even switched to my other side just for serves and cutting pushes.

My overall impression is that it's a control rubber with a lot of bounce...

Rudiger (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Looking back now…

The sheet has a taut, tightly-stretched feel, and the sponge is a bit on the hard side too.
The sheet doesn't have much grip on the ball, so it might not quite keep up with today's mainstream speed-plus-spin style...
It does give you a solid, springy response, so counters and smashes are easy to do,
but fine short-game touches and short serves are difficult.

Tobisuke Literally boiiing~

I used to use this one.
It's advertised as having a lot of pop, but "boing" is a more accurate description than a crisp "smack," and it didn't really fly all that much.
I also had the impression that it was hard to get spin on it, but the short game and blocking were easy to do.
