    Roundell... The Next Step Towards Greatness.
    Gives you good control for the amount of speed and spin that can be produced due to the very flexible top sheet and sponge.

      This is a good step-up rubber. It's a nice introduction to tension rubbers. You can use it on forehand or backhand. Compared to Rozena from the same maker, it doesn't fly off wildly on a mishit, so you can swing through with full confidence. Rozena is a great rubber if you can already hit with tension rubbers, but if your swing or your short game isn't stable yet, I'd recommend Roundell instead. For your next step up, I'd recommend a rubber in the roughly 6000 yen price range - the difference is easy to feel.

      Better than I expected, I could hit with it, but the impact was too strong and my shots kept dropping.
      Going a bit harder would probably let you hit it properly.

      Table tennis rookie Seriously recommended for beginners

      I switched over from Impartial XS, trying to start fresh.
      Honestly, since I'd been using short pips before, this made a huge difference - my drives got really consistent, my serves had good spin, it was easy to counter-drive, and drives from away from the table were easy too. It was awesome! But as you get better, there will come a point where it starts to feel like it's not quite enough - at that point, just get a rubber that fits your playing style.
      Seriously, thanks to this rubber I got used to inverted rubber!

      A few people on my club team use this, so I borrowed one to try it out.
      First off, it's super easy to use. It's controllable, so it's easy to mix up the pace of your shots!
      That said, since it's soft, it's a bit hard to generate speed, so I'd recommend intermediate and above players put it on their backhand. It'd also make a good first rubber.

      This is a fairly soft rubber. It's not super fast, but if you hit it properly you can get a decent ball out of it. Same goes for spin. Both the topsheet and sponge are on the soft side, so you do lose some energy here and there. I'd put it in the same category as the GTT series or Rigan series. Blocking and driving feel great because the ball sinks right into the sponge. That said, techniques such as the choli-drive that rely on brushing the ball suffer a bit. Can't really be helped.

      Compared to the Hard version, it's maybe just a bit softer - that's about the size of the difference. Actually, one review video even found it to be harder than the Hard version. And interestingly, the Soft version came out as the hardest of the three in that test. Performance-wise it's an easy-to-use tension rubber, so it's fine to just pick based on weight.
