It is the mission of VICTAS, the innovative brand from Japan, to provide ambitious players with the best materials possible. After many years of research and development, the German and Japanese material experts (GJ Tec) succeeded in developing a rubber which meets the high requirements of professionals and will be fun to play by players of all levels alike. The new “Power & Balance” philosophy of the V > 01 rubber combines the power of topspin bombs with feel and precision in your play, so that you remain in control at all times. This sensational feel is the result of the slightly harder, open-pore 47.5° high-performance sponge which provides for a more direct, thus more controlled touch enabling precise placing of the ball. In hard-hit balls (e.g. topspin, smash), the air chambers of the open-pore sponge are compressed, which results in longer ball contact. This virtually makes the V > 01 rubber explode, catapulting the ball to your opponent's side at maximum speed. The high-tension, spinny and extremely fast rubber with integrated VICTAS High Energy Tension Technology gives every variable topspin player the opportunity of utilizing their own offensive arsenal to the fullest.

The bounce is really good, but I felt like it's a bit hard to get spin on.
For me it bounced too much and control was difficult.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Switched from a Chinese rubber on the forehand side. The trajectory became a lot flatter, but the spin is still satisfying, and the speed is almost double.
In exchange, control got harder, but blocking and countering became a lot easier.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I tried the 1.8mm red on my backhand side. I'd heard rumors it was "hard," but the topsheet wasn't as hard as I expected. Since I mainly serve off my backhand, I find it easy to use. I don't think the topsheet is all that hard, but for its hardness it grips the ball surprisingly well - maybe not far off Tamasu's super famous rubber. I was able to hit the backhand drives I wanted, one after another. At 164cm and not much power, I feel VICTAS suits me better. Going forward I'm thinking of trying the 2mm version too.

It's not quite as fast as Butterfly's Bryce Speed, but it's a distinctive rubber with speed that's close behind.
That said, it also gets plenty of spin.
The downside is it's hard and tricky to get the ball to land in. I couldn't quite master it myself.
For advanced players with a stable, consistent stroke, this might be the strongest option out there.
It's not expensive either, so why not give it a try?All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

A true monster rubber
the power is amazing, the speed is amazing, and for chiquita and backhand topspin drives you get both speed and spin
it works on forehand and backhand alike
the topspin drive is genuinely insane, control is hard but the speed is ridiculousAll Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
Racket recommended use VIOLIN

This rubber is hard to control
but the smash power makes up for it - hard enough that I once hit a senpai in the face with one and made him cry
the topspin drive really carries through!
the trajectory is flat and tricky but it has real speed
the one thing I struggle with is countering
but you can counter-block just fine
the serves have decent spin too
though if you don't swing through fully they won't go in
so I don't think beginners should use this
if you're strong you can hit some scary shots with it
the push is good too
this is VICTAS for you!!All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
Racket recommended use Timo Boll W7
