    IThe V > 01 Limber rubber is the slightly softer version of the VICTAS V > 01 premium series for ambitious players. The goal of the development of this version was to produce a High-End offensive rubber in the medium segment. The German and Japan material experts (GJ Tec) combined the extremely spinny and fast High Energy Tension rubber sheet of V > 01 with an open-pore, state-of-the- art medium sponge with great catapult effect. The result is a highly- elastic, modern offensive rubber which does not fall short of the other V > 01 versions as regards power and spin.

    ▽ CriticalAdvanced players may find the spin amount unsatisfactory. Players prioritizing speed or relying on rubber performance for spin generation might find it insufficient.

      It had decent speed, the spin was so-so, and it was easy to control.
      The short game was a bit hard to do.

      SIMA 1st KOUKI (Experience: Less than a year) Super aggressive soft-spin tension rubber

      Reviews by user

      This rubber is soft, generates spin, has speed, and bounces well. It's one of the few soft, bouncy rubbers that I like. First, in terms of spin, speed, power, and distance on topspin drives, it's top-class among soft rubbers, and I'd rank it pretty high among rubbers overall. And it's consistent. Smashes have plenty of power too. Serves grip well too. But it has the drawback of being hard to use for the short game. Also, it has a bit of a quirk — the ball leaves fast, and it's heavy. Because of that, it might be hard to handle unless you have some power. And it lets the ball sink into the sponge no matter what. I personally like that about it, but some people might not.
      If you're getting tired of rubbers that are just plain soft, give this one a try.

      PARFECT HUMAN (Experience: 4〜5 years) No way!

      Reviews by user

      Previously I was using a Barwell Fleet blade with G-1 and Bryce Speed FX. But my stops and backhand drives kept sailing off the table, so I decided to put in all my money and buy a new blade. After that, even though it's a carbon blade, my stops don't pop up at all — I can drop them right at the net — and I get fewer overshoots or net mistakes with my drives too. Since Mima Ito and Ayane Morita both use G-1 on their forehand, I was confident about my forehand, but I was a little unsure about putting V>01 Limber on my backhand — it turned out to match really well and was great. If you go with this combination, you really can't go wrong.

      Favorite trivia (Experience: 4〜5 years) God-tier rubber

      Reviews by user

      I'm using this on my backhand right now.
      Above all, the metallic sound is amazing — as a metallic-sound geek, this is the best for me.
      Since switching to this rubber, my backhand topspin drives from away from the table go in so much more often!
      I'd recommend it to anyone chasing that metallic sound and anyone who wants a stable backhand.

      A very easy-to-use rubber with plenty of power!
      It's noticeably lighter than the 01 (about 4-5 grams less on average, in max thickness), so my swing gets faster.
      I like that it doesn't have the slipping-against-spin issue that bothered me with the Tenergy FX series (and soft sponge rubbers in general).
      It feels a bit slower than the V>01, but I was told that since the swing speed increased, it's actually not slower in practice.

      First, the standout good points of this rubber are that it's easy to control, and in a good way it's not very sensitive to spin, so you don't have to worry too much when receiving. Also, despite that, the speed is better than expected, and it grips the ball more than enough for backhand use, so when you swing a backhand topspin drive, you can still lift even a fairly heavy push from your opponent (also, since it's not sensitive to spin, you can hit flat too).
      On the downside, it doesn't generate as much spin as the newer spin-oriented tension rubbers, so it might be a bit tough for players who rely on the rubber itself to produce spin.
