Yasaka can offer a table tennis rubber with a very sticky top sheet combined with a rather hard sponge.
The sticky rubber makes it easy to control the topspin, serves and short cut returns.
The tension of the sponge creates outstanding speed.Even though being a sticky Chinese rubber SHINING DRAGON is light-weighted.

First off, this rubber grips better when you sink the ball in rather than just brushing it. It's also really light, so I think even players without much power can handle it. It generates more spin than a tension rubber, so you can attack with variation. Anyway, the Blue Sponge just looks so cool!! (^^)

I bought this for chop practice. It was refreshing that even in max thickness, this tacky rubber didn't feel heavy. On the first day, I swung the blade forward to chop and it bit hard, spinning like crazy! I had a blast chopping away all day.
But maybe because of the suction-type protective sheet, the moment the tackiness felt like it was wearing off, the cutting bite seemed to drop by half. I guess a tacky protective sheet is a must-have.
Long chops were easy, and it's easy to attack with too if you commit to the shot, but I found delicate touches at the net difficult. Longer pushes cut in on a nice straight line, so those were easy. I think it's far easier to handle than a Chinese rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

Adhesive spin drive Man (Experience: 4〜5 years) Compared to Shoryu

These are my impressions pairing it with a Nittaku Tornado King FL.
I have Shoryu on my forehand and liked the low, flat trajectory of the drive, so I decided to try Kiryu next.
Visually, the surface is really glossy — kind of reminds me of Hurricane.
To the touch, it's tackier than Shoryu, and softer too.
When actually hitting with it, Shoryu felt faster — though that might just be because Shoryu's trajectory is lower.
I'd recommend it for players who are good at rallies, or, like with Shoryu, for anyone looking to move from tacky to tension rubbers.
It seems to pair well with pretty much any blade.
I've written a lot here, but in the end I think I'll stick with Shoryu.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
Racket recommended use Tornado King

Since it's tacky, it's easy to get spin on.
It's on the lighter side for a tacky rubber, so it's easy to swing.
Unlike Shoryu, the control is good, so I think it's easy to use even if you don't have a lot of power.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

This is my second time (lol)
Looking at various reviews,
a lot of people said it works well on the backhand, so I gave it a try.
My main setup is short pips on the backhand.The softness that felt lacking when I used it on my forehand
somehow feels spot on when used on the backhand ♪
The soft feel is still there,
but drives, flat hits, and blocks all just feel easy to handle.
If they release a 1.8mm version, I'd love to make it my permanent backhand rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

Used on the forehand of a Chinese-style blade.
I've used Shoryu since it came out, and I was hoping this one would be lighter and a bit softer, but honestly it was a letdown.
It's easier than Shoryu for a light topspin drive, but overall it lacks power.
Maybe because of the surface sheet, a flat hit barely bounces at all, and hitting a hard drive gives you a weirdly straight trajectory. Personally I wish they'd kept Shoryu's sheet and just lowered the hardness.
That said, it has more distance than Shoryu, and countering and blocking were easy, so it might be worth it on the backhand.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Even though it's marketed as a tacky high-tension rubber, I'd say it leans tacky.
So among tacky rubbers,
I think it's a great choice for anyone who wants a bit more speed.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard
