Wow, this is a really good rubber—
the way it pulls performance so close to Tenergy through the new concepts of "tolerance" and "spring sponge" makes it a genuinely great rubber. The rose-colored sponge looks super cool too!
For people who couldn't afford Tenergy before because of the price, this is at a much more accessible price point, so I'd recommend it financially as well.
And the best part is that counters are easy to pull off, and chiquita and loop drives especially get an insane amount of spin on them!
It was the perfect rubber for anyone looking to level up even further‼️All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Comparing it to G1
Smash ○ — power and speed are decent, about on par with G1?
Drive ○ — thanks to the sponge, spin is easy to put on, but it loses to G1
Counter ◎ — as mentioned in the promo video, it's easy to handle. Probably the easiest of any rubber for this
Block △ — the ball flies upward. I'm the type who likes to keep the ball down, so unless you adjust the angle depending on the situation, it's quite difficult
Short game ○ — pushes float up a bit, but flicks and chiquita are stable. Power isn't all that strong, so if you prioritize power, go with G1
Serve ○ — pretty ordinary spin-type serves. G1 gets noticeably more spin on itThis time I bought Rozena to get a feel for backhand drives, but I feel like the forehand is actually easier to use it on. The reason being
pushes and blocks tend to float, so I felt it's not suited for the backhand, which you use a lot for connecting shotsOverall — if you're buying it to strengthen your counters, I'd be tempted to say just buy G1 instead, but the performance isn't bad, so I'd recommend it to anyone who likes a softer rubber

There are rumors it's Tenergy-like,
but it doesn't have quite that much grip on the ball.
That said, it's very stable and well-balanced across every technique.I'd recommend it for both forehand and backhand, from beginner up to intermediate level.
It feels like a well-balanced Rounder with a significant power boost.
The quality is good too — a rubber I can recommend.

These are my impressions from mainly using it on my backhand.
Personally I think it's a really good rubber. The feel on contact is similar enough that I'd almost mistake it for Tenergy.
It feels like you get a better ball by really sinking it into the sponge, so in terms of category it feels similar to 64 and 80.
That said, the closest match in feel was actually 05FX.
It's less that spin "bites" and more that it's easy to put spin on. In terms of absolute spin amount, Tenergy is still ahead.
On the other hand, it's also somewhat insensitive to the opponent's spin, so meeting the ball is easy too, which makes it feel like a well-balanced rubber.
My overall impression, if I had to put it into words, is that it's like an upgraded Rounder.
Compared to high-end rubbers like Tenergy or Omega, you might honestly feel the spin is a bit lacking, but I think it's an excellent, well-balanced rubber.
Something I noticed after hitting with it a lot: chiquita is really easy to do. Or rather, up-the-table techniques in general felt easy.
It's also relatively light, so it doesn't discriminate by player type, and I think it's a rubber you could recommend for the backhand on a shakehand racket too.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I use it on my backhand. My impression is it suits a sinking-the-ball style of hitting more than a brushing style, and it performs well close to the table and at mid-distance. Short game techniques like chiquita were easy to pull off.

Used it on the forehand.
This rubber releases the ball quickly, so spin is a bit hard to generate, but the arc is low, letting you drive in fast balls.
Hitting against backspin is tricky, but drives from mid-distance had plenty of power and went in well.
I'd recommend it for players who prioritize speed but still want a bit of spin.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

It's really easy to put spin on and easy to use overall.
Even with a bouncy blade, I was still able to get solid spin on the ball.
Control is good too.
I think it's easy to use on the forehand for intermediate-level players.
I'm planning to make this my main rubber going forward.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
