Somewhat hard type of sponge specification stiffer. Since the Henra in rotation as it forces the strength of the impact, if the batted ball in full swing, you spin ever, and speed can be obtained.
- Ideal as an introductory sticky rubber
- Enhanced power with glue application
- Hard sponge aids technique development
- Slow swings produce flat/knuckleball shots
- Excellent value for money

I'd been using a Chinese tacky rubber up until now.
Here's my honest impression!
Since the sponge is hard, if your swing speed is slow, you get a flat, almost knuckleball-like return (especially on backhand shots).
Just going by the push alone, you could almost mistake it for an anti-spin rubber... (lol)
If you brush it properly, you do get a decent amount of spin.
The smash is quite fast.
If you're not careful it flies way off, so it seems like it takes some time to get used to.
Once you master it, though, I think it could turn into quite a gem.All Speed Spin Control

I used this once, right when it first came out.
It worked really well with speed glue, and I could produce shots with real bite, but the handling wasn't all that great. The feel on contact wasn't great either.
My impression was that it's a budget version of the Hurricane Pro 3, but I wonder how it plays without speed glue. Probably hopelessly lacking in bounce.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

It's discontinued, so I got it cheap and tried putting it on my backup blade.
It's not quite up there with a Chinese rubber, but it's fairly hard and tacky. It doesn't bounce much either, and if you just hit it flat you get a dead, straight ball, which is a very tacky-rubber kind of feeling.
If you speed up your swing and brush it thin, you get the kind of spin that's also typical of tacky rubbers. That said, the actual amount of spin on a drive isn't as high in absolute terms as today's spin-oriented rubbers. Pushes and serves over the table felt really good.
Even close to full retail price, the value for money is good. I think it's a very TSP kind of rubber, in that they have a lot of hidden gems.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

This is TSP's specialty. TSP is the only maker that can put out a tacky rubber like this with high performance while keeping the price down! It performs really well - these days I think it would be great on an intermediate player's backhand.

Not many people use it these days, but it's a rubber I'd really recommend for anyone trying tacky rubber for the first time.
With its moderate tackiness and slightly firm sponge, you should be able to use it without much sense of unfamiliarity.
I'd like people to master handling tacky rubber with this one first, then move on to try Chinese tacky rubbers like the Hurricane.All Speed Spin Control

If you bite into the ball, the speed is decent and the spin is decent too. The control is decent as well — a solidly average rubber all around.
