      Topspin drive: pretty easy to use. If you hit it hard, it makes a nice sound.
      That said, there's a bit of a "pushed back" feeling, so I think it's better to aim for placement than to trade hard hits.

      Block: amazing, one word for it. Really suits players who focus on blocking.

      Short game: this is also pretty easy to use. You can attack quickly from here.

      Serve: it doesn't spin that much. Try flipping the blade to serve off the other side.

      Summary: good for players who attack quickly off flicks in the short game, and those who block a lot.

      Easy to use. A rubber that gives stable backhand blocks while also handling offensive play in a well-balanced way.

      The hardness is just a bit harder than Vega Europe.
      The spin is about the same, and you get better shots by hitting in a way that really sinks the ball into the sponge.
      The speed is about like the Sriver EL - not much.
      I think it'd suit the backhand on a firm plywood or carbon blade.
      I felt like it'd be good for someone leveling up from a control-oriented rubber, or anyone looking for stability.

      No matter what, it prioritizes spin and doesn't produce much speed - but if your swing speed is fast, you can get speed out of it too.

      The spin is top-notch, but there's no speed, so it's a no-go for me.

      I switched from Hurricane to this on my backhand.
      Since I mainly serve from the backhand, I'd been looking for a rubber that keeps my serve quality up while giving stable drives, and I finally feel like I found it!

      Since the sponge is soft, I hardly ever drop the ball short on my push shots anymore.

      The price is reasonable too, so I think it's worth buying (^ ^)
