    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated by beginners and intermediate players as an upgraded version of Mark V with improved stability and control. However, some users question its viability in modern table tennis due to inferior speed and spin compared to the latest tension rubbers.

    • Excellent control and stability, ideal for beginners
    • Less affected by opponent's spin, suitable for backhand

    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe ease of use of Mark V is maintained while spin and speed are improved. This rubber provides excellent spin and speed while maintaining such usability, which is unprecedented.
    ▽ CriticalIn the 40mm plastic ball era, there is no need to use this rubber. Compared to tension rubbers, it lacks bounce, and more high-performance rubbers are available in the same price range.

      Everything about it is great, it feels like it has no weaknesses. I'd recommend this for beginners. It's a rubber you can use to learn all kinds of techniques.

      If Mark V is a 10, I'd say this performs about like this.
      Both speed and spin are pretty good.
      Personally, I find this one easier to use.
      Apparently an extra-soft Extend version is coming out in October too,
      so I'm looking forward to that a bit.

      Rinku (Experience: ６〜１０ years) A high-tension version of Mark V

      Reviews by user

      The way it flies makes it feel like you should think of this as a totally different rubber from the old Mark V.
      As you'd expect from a high-tension rubber, ball release is good and it generates plenty of spin too.
