In Rakza 7 Soft the top sheet is the same as for Rakza 7. The sponge is softer which gives the rubber more sound and built-in speed glue effect. With Rakza 7 Soft the control characteristics are improved. After hitting the ball with top spin the curve of the ball is slightly higher, giving little bit bigger margins in the game. In the short return play, the ball feel is better.

I use it on my forehand. Being the Soft version, it is indeed on the softer side,
but drives are easy to control, which is why I put on Rakza 7 Soft instead of the regular Rakza 7.
Counters are easy to pull off too, and serves bite well. It doesn't have that thing tension rubbers often do where the ball just rockets off on contact — you actually get a real feel for the ball, and I like that.
If it were just a touch harder it would be perfect, but I think it's within a range you can adjust for.All Speed Spin Control

Since both the sponge and the sheet are soft, using it on your backhand makes your returns quite stable.
The sheet's grip is really good, so it's easy to put spin on.
That said, the grip weakens fairly quickly.All Speed Spin Control

It's easy to use. The spin really grabs. I'd recommend it for people who want to attack during backhand rallies.

Hmm,
nothing about this rubber really stands out (in a good way or a bad way).
If you're unsure what to put on your backhand, I'd highly recommend it.Also, I didn't really understand the whole "Hybrid Energy" thing.

My first impression was that it bounces surprisingly well. Also, the ball-holding feel is poor for its hardness.
I got the impression the spin bites well, but not as much as Tackifire C.
Even in forehand rallies, the slightest change in racket angle makes spin get applied on its own.
I also felt it was easily affected by the opponent's spin.
Drives are stable and easy to hit, but the spin doesn't seem to be as much as the spec sheet suggests. I didn't use it enough to judge its durability, and since replacement frequency depends on skill level, practice time, and how often you play matches, I can't say for sure how long it lasts, but looking at how often other people replace it, it seems to be under a third of the lifespan of Tenergy-series rubbers.All Speed Spin Control

A rubber that grabs spin really well.
Control is plenty good too, so it's stable — a rubber for people who want spin without sacrificing stability.All Speed Spin Control

Backspin is hard to drive against.
It's easier to use for rallying and blocking on the backhand rather than the forehand.All Speed Spin Control
