    Reproduce the feel at impact of the speed glue

    Is a rubber speed glue shot feel-hitting sound at the time of use can be obtained. It combines the power and stability in that very combination of the soft sponge on the top sheet of "PRYDE" attack force of preeminent.

    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Characterized by its soft sponge and distinctive metallic sound, it receives high ratings primarily for backhand use. While excelling in speed and control, its spin performance is limited, positioning it as a practical rubber for beginners to intermediate players.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Distinctive metallic sound and addictive playing feel
    • Soft sponge offers excellent control and bite grip
    • Backhand blocking and pushing produce high-speed returns
    • Limited spin but compensated by bite-oriented technique
    • Sheet wear occurs relatively quickly
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe hitting sound is excellent! Speed and control are superb, especially delivering top performance on the backhand side.
    ▽ CriticalFine touch techniques like chop and net play are difficult to control, and sheet wear is relatively quick, making it unsuitable for long-term use.

      Reviews by user

      I think the only rubber with a metallic sound to rival this one is the Genius Optimum Sound.
      Compared to recent spin-tension rubbers it falls short on the amount of spin, but if you dig into your shots, the spin isn't bad at all.
      Also, backhand blocks go in at a surprisingly fast, counter-like speed with just a little extra force.
      The weakness is that net play, flicks, chiquitas, and pushes are hard to control.
      I still think it's a good rubber for the backhand even today.

      - This rubber's defining trait is the sharp "clack" sound on contact. Similar to andro's Plasma Woman or Joola's Express 2.
      - Using it with an outer carbon blade gives an addictive feel.
      - The sponge is quite soft, so control is excellent. Flicks especially were the easiest for me.
      - The sheet degrades pretty quickly, so personally I think this rubber is more for people who play table tennis as a hobby.

      I have it on my backhand and it's the best! The sound off the ball is great!
      The spin feels a little lacking, but I think the speed and control are good.

      Yutchi @ cut Recommended for the backhand side!

      Reviews by user

      It's very soft, so just blocking or hitting flat produces a fast ball. So I think it's great for the backhand of beginner-to-intermediate players! It's also not very affected by spin, so it's strong on over-the-table technique like receives! Also, it's not the type of rubber everyone knows about, so plenty of people might not be used to playing against it. It's not the kind of rubber that's "easy to practice with," but it's one that definitely delivers in matches. I'd recommend it to anyone who gets nervous in matches and can't swing through on the backhand.

      Since it's soft, I'd recommend it to people who hit by flicking the ball or by digging in and driving through it. When you flick it, it makes a metallic sound and produces a fast ball, so I'd recommend it to people who use backhand pushes a lot.

      Yasakan (Experience: 6〜10 years) It's an excellent rubber.

      Reviews by user

      I'm a right-handed shakehand player with inverted rubber on both sides.
      At first I only used max thickness on my forehand, but I switched to both sides.
      Both drives and smashes feel stable and really easy to use.
      I thought blocks might result in more over-the-table misses, but I've been able to send strong shots reliably.
      Personally I feel push shots have gotten a bit harder to do.
      On my backhand I used to favor a slightly tacky rubber with pushes in mind, so the difference is big, but I got used to handling it.
      Serves can also produce a decent amount of spin.
      I think if it suits you, it'll feel just right.

      It's quite soft, so it felt like the ball would reach all the way to the blade.
      The speed comes out from how much it sinks in, but the sheet's grip isn't great, so it doesn't spin much.

      With drives, it would sink in too much and the ball would often float up, but with blocks I could return the ball stably.
