    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as a versatile rubber for beginners to intermediate players, with excellent control and affordable pricing being major strengths. However, advanced players often find it lacking in speed and spin potential.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Exceptional control performance with excellent ball grip feel
    • Reliable for short-range techniques: serve, flick, and push
    • Ideal for beginners and as a 2nd rubber; perfect for learning backhand drive
    • Excellent value for money with outstanding price-performance ratio
    • Moderate speed and spin potential; not suitable for advanced players
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveFew quirks, handles any technique well. Moderate bounce with a satisfying grip-in feel that builds proper technique sense. Perfect match for players wanting to level up their fundamental skills.
    ▽ CriticalSpeed and spin feel somewhat underwhelming, with direct trajectories when hitting powerfully, similar to short pimple rubber. Lacks the aggressive power sought by advanced players.

      Ainu (Experience: 2〜3 years) Good rubber

      Reviews by user

      Used this on the backhand!
      Pros... once a drive lands, you can hit an amazing low, flat arc! Serves also spin sharply, good!
      Cons... when hitting, the ball drops down... might just be because I'm not great, but you get used to it.
      Summary: for the first time, I want to use this rubber again next time! A really good rubber.

      GK (Experience: 6〜10 years) A different beast from Fastarc

      Reviews by user

      I was expecting an easier-to-handle version of G-1, but... I found it quite lacking.
      It's so stable that it lacks power. Lifting backspin isn't very easy either.
      I think it's an ideal beginner's rubber for learning basic strokes, the short game, blocking, and so on.
      If you're happy with Fastarc, this probably won't suit you.

      The middle and a half par (Experience: 4〜5 years)

      Reviews by user

      If Fastarc and Tenergy are on the same level, then Factive is similar to Rozena. But this one has more grip and better durability, so I like this one better.

      It is aiming counter (Experience: 2〜3 years) Very easy-to-use rubber

      Reviews by user

      It feels similar to Fastarc S-1
      Even beginners should get used to it quickly
      Speed is good, spin is good, I think it's well balanced

      SIMA 1st kouki (Experience: 2〜3 years) Perfect all-round rubber for your second sheet

      Reviews by user

      Since a new product came out, here's my impression from trying it.
      First of all, it was incredibly easy to use. I normally use G-1 and C-1, and this feels like a softer, easier-to-use version of C-1. The sheet's grip felt a bit less than C-1, but it still grips the ball well and spin was very easy to generate. So I think it's ideal for learning the feel of a topspin drive. That said, it doesn't spin as much as C-1 or G-1 - it's really meant as a stepping stone toward those rubbers. Also, being soft, it produces good speed. The smash speed was amazing. The short game was also easy to play. And the control on every technique was impressively easy.
      I think this rubber is ideal for a new player's second sheet. Even a weak impact generates solid spin, and it's easy to learn the feel of putting spin on the ball. However, the ball doesn't sit on it as long as C-1 or G-1, so without guidance to really let the ball sink in before hitting, it might turn into flat, poke-and-hope table tennis. I'd also recommend it on the backhand for players who struggle there.

      Tesch (Experience: 2〜3 years) Perfect for backhand

      Reviews by user

      Just like the title says, it's perfect for the backhand.
      I used to play penhold with pips and mainly return serves with a push.
      But that changed once I found this rubber.
      The grip is great, and since switching to this rubber, backhand receives and chiquita have become really easy to do.
      Considering the price and performance, I think it's a rubber with nothing to complain about.

      Gakky (Experience: 2〜3 years) Amazing bounce

      Reviews by user

      Here's my impression after trying it out. First, if you put this on a bouncy carbon blade, it bounces so much the ball flies off the end of the table, and since it doesn't grip for a huge amount of spin either, rallies are easy, but hitting a push against a topspin drive is quite hard. So I don't think it suits a carbon blade. Lastly, if you're someone who tenses up under match pressure, I really don't think you should put this on a carbon blade.
