      Reviews by user

      The spin is just insane.
      Thanks to this rubber, the quality of my serves improved.
      The short game was easy to play too.
      That said, I felt like it doesn't have that much bounce.

      Reviews by user

      I use this on my backhand.
      - Gets a moderate amount of spin while still having speed
      - Doesn't fly off too much, so it's easy to handle
      - Good value for money, and it lasts well too

      Perfect for anyone looking for stability!

      I use this on the forehand of my Nittaku Kiso Hinoki AA blade.
      I switched from Dignics 05 before, looking for more stability in the short game and close-to-the-table play.
      The peak speed and spin are certainly lower, but each stat feels like it has just enough performance,
      and the grip on the ball is good too, which has improved the consistency of finer plays.
      Even though it's a tension rubber, it doesn't have that "flies off on its own" feeling that Dignics has.
      It's easy to place the ball where you're aiming, the short game is easy to play, and it still has a decent amount of power.
      Personally I'm very satisfied, and I plan to keep using this rubber for a while.

      I use this on my forehand (black, max thickness).

      Stability, above all — that sums it up.
      Forehand drives go in easily, and the feel of the ball is really pleasant.

      The raw numbers for spin, speed, and so on might not be as high as the flagship models,
      but by lowering the difficulty of the rubber, I think you can enjoy table tennis more.

      Reviews by user

      *Just my personal impressions.
      (Speed) Very good. About on par with Tenergy 05. So I'd give it a "9."
      (Spin) Also good. It gets spin even with just a light touch. So a "7."
      (Control) The hardness is listed as 42.5, but it feels softer than Tenergy when you actually hit with it. Control is easy to manage. So an "8."
      Overall I think it's good, but personally, I find drives against backspin quite difficult with it. When I play against choppers, I'd rather use a different rubber than this one. But against attacking players, this thing is scary good!! With great speed and spin, you can hit really powerful drives.
      And since the control is good too, it's easy to place the ball wherever you want!
      If you take away the trouble with driving against backspin, I'd call this a perfect 10 rubber.

      I used it for three months.

      Since the sheet is soft and doesn't slip, you get a lot of spin whether you graze the ball or sink it in. It feels closer to the Europe version than the Asia version. I'd recommend this if you find Europe a bit lacking, or if you're a junior high schooler struggling to find a backhand rubber.

      It's soft. But that doesn't mean it lacks bounce.
      Basically there's no technique that feels awkward with it.
      Blocking in particular is great.
      It works fine on either forehand or backhand, but I'd recommend the backhand.
      A rubber you can really let loose with when it counts.
