-The adoption of the poly ball changes the game for many seasoned all-around players.
- STIGA Airoc S is designed to expand shot selection and feel for control players.
- Creating a rubber sheet to provide this dynamic range of play is made possible thanks to STIGA’s new OCS sponge technology (Oxygen Capsule System).
- We have formulated the air pockets within the sponge to with stand the strongest attacks while providing enough spring to go offensive on demand.
-For the ability to control the tempo and to have multiple ways to score then STIGA Airoc S is your perfect choice.

The topsheet isn't all that soft, so it felt more like medium hardness to me.
I mainly used it on my backhand this time, so this review is mostly about the backhand side.
The short game is easy — both chiquita and pushes go in reliably on the opponent's side. It's also easy to place the ball where you're aiming.
Backhand topspin drives and counters are easy to do too, though the power was a bit less than I expected. Blocks land very consistently.
Overall, it gives a different kind of feel on the ball compared to Tenergy, and the spin is more than good enough — an easy-to-use rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I think it's quite lightweight. You can hit with it either flat or with a brushing stroke.

Using it on the forehand.
The feel off the racket is great and it's easy to control. Though it might feel a bit lacking for advanced players...
It's on the softer side, so I think it would also work well on the backhand.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

A friend of mine had it, so I borrowed it and gave it a try.
The feel is different from both Tenergy and the German rubbers.
To me it felt like the ball was actually being caught on the sponge.
I think it's a feel that will split people into love-it-or-hate-it camps.
It's soft and easy to control, but the spin itself doesn't feel all that high.
Personally it wasn't a feel I got along with,
but for people who like it, it might be irresistible.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

It's very soft so I think the control is great.
The sound off the racket is also pleasant, but I think it might feel a bit lacking.
I'd recommend it for beginners.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

I think the best way to hit with this rubber is by letting the ball sink in on contact. It holds the ball nicely and is easy to control.
Both spin and speed sit somewhere between a high-elasticity rubber like Sriver and a spin-oriented tension rubber like Rasant, which makes it just right for blocking and countering on the backhand. It suits close-to-the-table play well.
Backhand topspin drives are consistent, so I think the best approach is to build into a rally starting from a backhand drive.
Stops and pushes also stay stable if you put some spin on with the sheet, without that soft-rubber "poyoon" pop you sometimes get.
Chiquita isn't going to be a winner by itself, but it goes in consistently, so I think the best plan is to use it to set up a rally from there.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

When it comes to medium-hardness rubbers, Vega Asia is the one that comes to mind first, but I think this is a very easy-to-use rubber too! You can generate a lot of spin, and it doesn't fly off wildly, so it's a normal rubber that anyone can handle.
