I have it on the backhand of my Viscaria.
Compared to Tenergy or the flagship rubbers other companies are pushing, this one is easier to use.
The spin is a bit underwhelming, but the control and speed more than make up for it.
I'm not naturally great at putting spin on with my backhand, but if I keep a light spin motion in mind and really drive through the ball, it goes in with tremendous force.This seems like a good option for someone who wants to try Tenergy but doesn't know what it's like and just wants a taste, or for a middle schooler who's got the basics down and is trying to decide on their next rubber.
I tried it on both forehand and backhand, and I think it works on either side unless you're someone who swings all the way through with a lot of power.

It feels like the performance of a typical ¥4,000-range tension rubber, bumped up two notches.

Since the blade is an inner-carbon type, the control is good. And since it's ALC, the speed is also good. I think it matches the Innerforce Layer ALC really well.
Both topspin drives and chiquitas are very easy to do. It generates a huge amount of spin.
Even lobbing or fishing from away from the table, the ball still reaches.
As for serves, sometimes it grips and sometimes it doesn't.
When it doesn't, the ball tends to just bounce off, so it might be better to brush it thinner.
It's a really good rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

This time I test-hit it on a 7-ply all-wood blade, and honestly the speed and spin weren't quite as much as I'd heard.
But when I hit it by sinking the ball in rather than brushing it, I got a lot of stability and speed❗️
That said, the spin still didn't really change much.
To sum up, Rozena is a bit lacking for advanced players, but I'd say it's excellent equipment for intermediate players.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Backhand in disarray (Experience: 2〜3 years) It does have stability

I have it on my backhand, and since the rubber is soft and light, my backhand is stable.
Chiquita, flick, backhand drive, and block are all easy to do.
But that's really all it gives you — stability.
It tends to produce light balls that are easy for the opponent to counter.
That said, for blocking, where stability matters most, it's excellent, and you can hang in there even against hard shots.
It's not bad for the backhand of an all-round inverted-on-both-sides player or a chopper, but scoring points still ends up relying on the forehand.
I think it suits people using a hard rubber on the forehand who are worried about total weight, or people looking for stability on the backhand, but it does feel like something's missing.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

It's been a little while, so here's another review.
The feel is on the soft side, but for serves, if you cut thin, you get a lot of spin. However, if you let the ball sink in too much, it bounces off.
For topspin drives, I made a lot of mistakes when I forced it or hit with too much impact.
Smashes land reasonably well.
On the backhand, if your contact point is too high, the ball goes long.Over the table, the ball tends to bounce, so it takes some getting used to.
That said, if you put spin on it, it goes in.
If you push hard against a sharp backspin serve, it catches the net. It's very sensitive to incoming spin.Conclusion
For someone with solid fundamentals, this will be a reliable ally.
I felt this is a good rubber that works whether you're a beginner who's gotten used to things like the Vega series, Mark V, or Fly ATT, or a player competing at prefectural or national tournaments.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Ribbets (Experience: 4〜5 years) Totally different from Tenergy

Using the max-thickness version on my backhand.
The listed hardness difference from Tenergy is just 1, but when I actually hit with it, it felt softer than that — almost floppy. Might be partly because my blade is on the soft side too...
Being a soft rubber, shots that sink the ball into the sponge feel good, but grazing/brushing shots are disappointing — you lose power and the ball drops... though that's kind of the fate of any soft rubber.
It uses a spring sponge so it has a Tenergy-like vibe, but it's totally different. I didn't get that "everything just lands" feeling Tenergy has. My overall impression is just that it's easy to handle. Control was good.Since it's soft, it'd probably suit a player without a strong impact on the ball. For me, even on the backhand it felt almost too soft.
Lifespan is on the short side.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft
