Inner Force (Experience: 4〜5 years) Just the right firmness

I used it on my forehand, but I felt it would be better on the backhand (since I had a GFT40 on my backhand at the time···). I don't feel like there's any technique that's hard to pull off with it. The hardness is 45, so it works for pretty much anyone. It's a good rubber for chiquita too, since you can brush up on the ball. That said, when you use a brushing technique, it feels like it slips a bit. I guess if a rubber is on the softer side, it's more prone to slipping. But apart from that, no complaints on any other technique! Nothing about it really stands out, but it doesn't have any flaws either, so I think it's a good rubber. It's especially easy to block and smash with, so I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a solid balance of offense and defense.

I currently have it on my forehand, and it's an easy rubber to use. I would have liked a bit more speed though.

I used the thick version on the backhand of a Fortius FT5.
Every technique felt stable and easy with this rubber!
The strength of this rubber is that every technique is easy and stable.
The weakness is that nothing about it particularly stands out.
What you want from a rubber differs from person to person, but if you're not sure what to get, I think you can just buy this one and be fine!All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

My first impression was that this is a rubber with excellent control.
I've been using it on both forehand and backhand for about four years now, and every technique feels very stable with it.
It really values short-game technique, and with a bit of practice you quickly get a feel for stops, sharply cut pushes, and even slightly tricky balls with this rubber. It's more of a gear for winning rallies than for pure speed, and for anyone who gets nervous about attacking first in a match, it lets you hit hard balls that still land firmly on the table, and short balls rarely go too long.
For the age group that's mostly just starting table tennis, I'd recommend trying the medium thickness first before switching to thick.
If you get used to it flying too much at first, the ball won't land on the table properly afterward, and you'll end up having to retrain that later — that's my impression.
I also think thick is a fine choice even for intermediate and advanced players. Since the control is good to begin with, it becomes something you can trust even more in important moments.
I'd recommend thick over max thickness myself, though that will vary depending on your swing speed and the time of season.
As for blade compatibility, I like it with a 5-ply wood blade, since the ball sinks in nicely and gives you good control.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I use it on my backhand. The arc is high and it's stable. Loop drives get plenty of spin, and blocking is easy too. It lacks a bit in punch-through power, but I'd recommend it to anyone who isn't confident in their swing speed.

This rubber is a bit soft and has outstanding stability.
So I was using it on my backhand.
Because it grips the ball so well, backhand drives are stable.
Short-game technique is stable too.
Recommended for anyone looking to step up their game.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I currently use this on my backhand.
Control is very easy and it's stable. Speed and spin are about average, I'd say. Pushes don't pop up much. You can also brush the ball properly on chiquita. This is a rubber I'd recommend to beginners and intermediate players.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
