    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.

      Fast, and the spin is insane — a real monster rubber. But only when your body position is perfect!
      Feels like it's really made for pros.

      Yakinori A chopper's perspective

      This rubber lets you easily rattle off fast drives with a stable trajectory. That said, it's quite soft, so blocks and counters tend to come back as easy balls for your opponent.

      Chops don't bounce as much as you'd expect — if you like soft rubbers, this one should feel really good. It just didn't suit me.

      For serves, because the rubber is soft, it was hard to keep them short.

      If a chopper is looking to step up from an easy rubber like Tackifire D, I'd recommend this as a first tension rubber. Since it's soft, the normal V>01 might work well too.

      For drive players, if you don't have much power and want to drive with your forehand, this could be good. If you're confident in your power and want to use it on the backhand, there are probably better rubbers out there.

      For the backhand side of a penhold looper, I can highly recommend it! It's light, so it doesn't get in the way of your game much.

      This was the rubber I'd been looking forward to, so trying it out was really exciting. I was especially excited that it combines ease of hitting with spin. I was torn about whether to make this my main rubber.

      Ping-pong panda (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Light, bouncy, and soft

      Reviews by user

      This is one of the so-called Tenergy FX-type rubbers — basically a softer-sponge version of the V>01.
      It's noticeably lighter than the regular 01 (about 4-5 grams less on average, in max thickness), so your swing gets faster.
      I like that it doesn't have the slipping-on-spin issue that used to bother me with Tenergy's FX line (and soft-sponge rubbers in general).
      It feels a bit slower than the V>01, but I was told that since the swing speed goes up, it doesn't actually end up slower in practice.
