Other manufacturers have similar rubbers in this category —
Nittaku's S1, Yasaka's Rakza 9, Butterfly's 64, and so on.
The feel on contact is great, better than you'd expect from something listed as medium hardness.You could put this on the forehand and Ventus Soft on the backhand to play on the difference in ball quality, or put Ventus Spin on the backhand and a tacky sheet on the forehand to make up for the difference in ball quality — it opens up a lot of room for customizing your setup.

Used on the backhand.
My blade has a carbon layer. Maybe because I'm using thick, it's very easy to control.Backhand: The bounce is a bit weak, so it's very stable if you hit with a bit of a pushing-through motion
Block: Very stable
Backhand drive: Whether you brush it or let it sink in, it gets solid spin either way
Serve: Sharp
Receive: Doesn't get affected by spin all that much, so you can receive consistentlyPros and cons
- For a tension rubber, the bounce is kept in check, which makes it very easy to control while still getting spinOther notes
At online prices, I think the value for money is excellent.
If thick feels a bit lacking in bounce for you, trying max thickness or a harder blade might let you appreciate this rubber's strengths even more.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

A rubber you can flick on autopilot.
It's listed as medium hardness, but it feels about the same as Rakza 7 Soft or Vega Europe.
Getting spin that beats Rakza at this hardness is insane. Definitely give it a try on your backhand — backhand loops are ferocious.
By the way, for the forehand I'd recommend Ventus Speed.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I bought this wanting more spin on drives and serves.
I didn't feel a huge jump in spin, but you can change the shot a lot just by adjusting your swing, so it's a really well-balanced, easy-to-use piece of gear.
Smashes come out pretty fast too.
As for serves, it fell a bit short of my expectations, but it's not like they don't spin at all, so it's within an acceptable range.
It might show its true spec better on an inner-ply blade than an outer-ply one.
Anyway, it's a rubber with great value for money, so if you're up to intermediate level, it's worth trying at least once.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

This is a rubber that makes backhand shots go in really easily. It's very easy to hit with, so I'd recommend it for beginners and advanced players alike.

What makes this rubber better than other spin-oriented rubbers is how easy it is to use for the short game.
Even if you misread the opponent's spin, if you brush it hard you can rewrite the spin as your own without the ball slipping — that was the easiest part for me.
Pushes in particular come in low and sharp with a heavy "thud" sound, so it felt like I was attacking straight off the push.
Drives and the like also grip the ball extremely well, don't slip, and hold the ball nicely, so it's easy to keep them stable. That said, the arc is high, so it's also easy for the opponent to counter.
On blocks it grips the ball well, which makes it a bit tricky, but hitting flatter makes it a little easier.
It suits a brushing stroke better. Letting the ball sink in does give you speed too, but brushing it gives the ball more weight.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

This rubber is very soft, and thanks to that, the control is great! Swing through it and the ball sinks in nicely, giving you plenty of spin too. (Not suited to a grazing/brushing stroke.)
The advantage is that drives and short-game techniques are easy to keep stable. That said, it doesn't produce much speed, so it's not great for countering...
Serves are easy since it's simple to get both control and spin!As for a similar rubber, I'd say something like Rakza 7 comes to mind! Personally I feel it grips the ball more than the 7 does, so I think it's better suited to the backhand!
