    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Despite being a sticky rubber, it is lightweight with high elasticity, making it ideal for transitioning from tension-type rubbers. Its excellent cost-performance ratio, combining affordable pricing with high performance, makes it particularly popular among middle and high school players.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Lightweight and bouncy despite sticky nature
    • Easy transition from tension rubbers
    • Powerful drive and loop shots
    • High performance at an affordable price
    • Stable for net play techniques like blocking and stopping
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveDespite being a sticky rubber, it has a softer feel, making the transition from tension rubbers smooth. Loop drives are very easy to execute, stops hold well, and counter-blocking and other techniques are easy to perform.
    ▽ CriticalBeing a harder rubber requires strong impact to generate ball power. The stickiness weakens with use, making protective sheet maintenance necessary.

      I will smash the stereotype of chubby guys (Experience: 2〜3 years) Seriously the best!

      Reviews by user

      This rubber is amazing!
      The spin on loop drives is incredible!
      The way speed drives combine speed and spin is amazing!
      The spin on serves is amazing too!

      It's a rubber that's amazing at combining spin and speed!
      It doesn't even reach 5000 yen, so it's easy on your wallet too!
      Why don't you all give it a try too?

      Nights (Experience: 2〜3 years) Feel of the shot

      Reviews by user

      It just makes such a satisfying sound.
      Since it's a soft tacky rubber, the arc is on the higher side too.
      It has speed, it has spin, and the block is the best.

      Nights (Experience: 2〜3 years) Used on forehand with Chinese penhold

      Reviews by user

      It's on the softer side for a tacky rubber, so you get a nice arc easily.
      It bounces a lot, so if you don't use your hips you'll overshoot.
      Both the feel and the sound of the ball are satisfying.
      The block is especially excellent. The ball just lands in the opponent's court on its own.
      Serves can also come out as tricky balls. A lot of them are knuckle balls.
      I found it to be a rubber with a lot of character that's really effective in actual matches.

      I thought it puts out a lot of power for a tacky rubber. It works well for hard hitters and fast-attack players too. Serving is especially easy with it.

      Reviews by user

      I found out it's easy to use even for beginners. It's a tacky rubber, but it's not actually tacky.

      Kokutama (Experience: 2〜3 years) Counter-attack

      Reviews by user

      I have it on my forehand. What stands out most is the counter. It has speed while still going where you aim it, so I'd recommend it to people who struggle to land counters. Shoryu isn't all that tacky for a tacky rubber, but it still gets plenty of spin. However, it flies a lot, so it's easy to overshoot, and getting that balance right is tricky.

      Tats (Experience: 2〜3 years) Test-hit with Kiryu glued on one side

      Reviews by user

      It's a bit harder than Kiryu, bounces well, and gives you more distance. I think that difference in distance is the biggest difference between the two. Kiryu is lighter and speedier than Shoryu, and given its bounce it feels more suited to close-to-the-table play. The spin is about the same on both, but since Kiryu has less bounce, it's easier to keep the ball on the table without overshooting. Before actually trying them, I expected Shoryu to suit the forehand and Kiryu the backhand, but it's actually more stable with Kiryu on the forehand and Shoryu on the backhand.
