The spin on this rubber is so good that once you use it, other tension rubbers feel like they barely spin at all.
I had it on my backhand, and there wasn't a single serve I couldn't pick up.
Thanks to this rubber, I started to understand what attacking play feels like. Even a junior high student can use it on the backhand.
When it comes to spin-based techniques like drives, it doesn't lose to any other tension rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

What's amazing about this rubber is the drive. Just like the name says, it has amazing grip on the ball, so even if you deliberately drop your contact point and drive, the ball still lands on the table. At first you might overshoot because it holds the ball too much, but once you get used to it, it's fine. Stops are also surprisingly easy to do with it.

My first impression was "heavy."
The feel is on the harder side and it has good bounce, but you need a fairly strong impact to get a good shot out of it.
I thought the spin was really good.
Rather than digging the ball into the sponge, brushing the surface of the sheet gives you a huge amount of spin, so it might suit players who like to brush the surface when they hit.
I personally couldn't get the hang of it.
Lastly, the green sponge looks really cool ☆All Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

The feel on contact doesn't seem as hard as the sponge hardness listed in the catalog. I think that's probably because the sheet is soft, so it feels more like medium hardness in practice.
Maybe because I have it on a Zhang Jike ZLC, but I get a lot of speed on the ball even with a light hit.
On drives, the sheet grips the ball in a way similar to the Rakza series, not quite as much as Tenergy, but it's still very stable.
That said, when I tried to aim for a specific course, the sheet's grip was sometimes so strong that the ball didn't go where I wanted.
Overall, if you put it on your forehand, it's a rubber you can compete with anywhere — close to the table, mid-distance, or away from the table — and since it doesn't arc as much as Tenergy, I think it's pretty easy to use.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

It's hard, but not rock hard.
Digging the ball into the sponge is really tough unless your swing speed is fast, but when you brush the ball, even a light swing puts a huge amount of spin on it and gives the ball a heavy quality. The bounce isn't over the top, so it's easy to control too.
And what I liked most was the serve.
I think it's the spinniest tension rubber out there. It's also easy to keep short.
If you like hard rubbers, I really want you to try this one.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

You can get it pretty cheap online, and it puts a crazy amount of spin on the ball. I'd say it's probably the spinniest tension rubber out there. Chops come out low and heavily cut, and you can put a ton of spin on loops too, so it combines both stability and destructive power! I especially want choppers to try this one!

This rubber is insane!
The biggest thing is the spin.
Even though this is a tension rubber
the amount of spin, especially on drives, is amazing!
The grip on the ball is strong, so it's easy to return the opponent's spin too
and counter drives
are especially crazy!
It absorbs the opponent's incoming energy
and lets you spin it right back
it's honestly the best
"Downsides"
the ball releases fast
too heavy
you can't swing big on serves (it'll go long)
the price is a bit high (though not as much as Tenergy)
this isn't something you can just swap out on a whimAll Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
