    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.

      This is a new rubber. I think it breaks the conventional idea of what a tacky rubber is. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to move from tension to tacky.

      I love short pips (Experience: １１〜２０ years) Recommended rubber

      Reviews by user

      This price is really considerate of Yasaka's players
      any more tackiness than this would probably start hurting the bounce
      and any less would basically defeat the point of being tacky at all — it's a perfectly balanced level of tack!
      Drives work whether you want them flat or arcing
      serves get plenty of bite too
      and stops are easy to do
      Yasaka came out with something unexpectedly good
      really grateful for this ♪
      I'll keep using it until it gets discontinued m(__)m

      Apprentice cutter artist Way too easy to handle

      Reviews by user

      This rubber is so easy to use that I have to wonder if it's really a tacky rubber. The spin feels a bit different from typical tacky-rubber spin, but it gives speed you wouldn't expect from a tacky rubber. It's a genre of its own that didn't exist before.

      Mid-close range drive (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Way too good value for money!

      Reviews by user

      This is a Yasaka rubber. It gives great speed and good spin, and when paired with a Ma Long Carbon and a Hurricane rubber, you can switch between spin-heavy drives and speed-focused drives.

      Close-to-table fast attack (Experience: ２〜３ years) Wonderful.

      Reviews by user

      This rubber is amazing, plain and simple. The rubber itself is slightly tacky.
      Thanks to that, stability and speed are top notch! It feels like a slightly softer Hurricane series rubber with less tackiness. Personally, I think this is a great choice for players moving from tension rubbers to tacky, or for tacky-rubber beginners.
      Recommended for intermediate to advanced players. I can't really recommend it for beginners.

      Miyapon Easy to use for a tacky rubber

      Reviews by user

      Even though it's a tacky rubber, it has good bounce and was easy to use.
      I think you can do everything typical of a tacky rubber without issue — curving drives, extending the ball with loop drives, getting good bite on serves and pushes.
      That said, compared to Hurricane Neo 3 or Skyline Neo 3, the ball felt lighter and got countered more often.
      Drives were easy to hit with this rubber, so I think if you put it on a thin, high-spin, good-ball-holding blade, you'd get even more spin and power.

      Soul Dragon (Experience: ６〜１０ years) High-speed tacky rubber

      Reviews by user

      Being a tacky rubber it gets spin on the ball, but what impressed me most was actually how fast it is. It also has good grip on the ball, and the pace of play is amazing. It suits fast, close-to-the-table attacking play too.
