Evan Holtz (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Great bounce. For backhand.

I used the 1.9mm version on the backhand of my Evanholz NCTV.
Visually it has STIGA's own matte finish, which clearly sets it apart from other rubbers.
The feel on contact is great and satisfying to hit with. It also makes a sound.
The weight is quite light compared to the trendy spin-oriented tension rubbers.For topspin drives, you get better shots by really sinking the ball in. It bounces a lot, so you get plenty of speed. The trajectory is straight and linear, which I think makes it a hard ball for opponents to handle.
Also, since the ball leaves the rubber quickly, meeting the ball for flat shots is easy. Speed drives and smashes have enough power to blow right through in a single hit.
To sum up,
this rubber is recommended for speed-oriented players. It's also good for players who put a tacky rubber on the forehand and want to lighten the overall weight. Attack with spin-based techniques like loop drives on the forehand, and use the backhand to flick the ball into a knuckle shot — the variation in spin that creates leads to points.All Speed Spin Control

This is more recommended for players who like to snap the ball out with a sharp hit, rather than players who focus on spinning it. You can flick the ball out regardless of the opponent's spin, the short game is quite easy to do, and while the arc on topspin drives isn't very high, it's on the more consistent side!

It doesn't spin as much as the trendy spin-oriented tension rubbers, but if you really sink the ball into it, you can get a decent amount of spin.
It's not very affected by incoming spin, so it's easy to vary how much spin you put on the ball, which I think makes it an annoying rubber to play against.All Speed Spin Control

I gave it a test hit.
It's really light and bouncy. If you're used to Tenergy, it'll surprise you with how light it is.
The spin isn't quite up there with the Synergy, but it grips the ball well, so it might be a good fit for the backhand.
For the forehand, I think it works well if you're the type who hits quick, flicking drives. I'm the type who really sinks the ball into the sponge on my drives, and when I used it on my forehand people told me my shots got lighter, so I use it on the backhand instead.Above all, the lightness is really surprising.
Apparently it's made in Japan, so maybe it's especially suited to Japanese players?
