■ Representative Voices
▲ PositiveWhen I switched it to the backhand, I felt unprecedented ease of use. With its hardness and micro-stickiness, I believe this is a backhand-specific rubber.
▽ CriticalA rubber in a subtle position. While it generates more spin than Mark V, it doesn't match Chinese rubbers like Kyohyo.
