  Hiropii (Experience: ２〜３ years) Rock-solid even with a flat hit

  

  This rubber is great for flat-hitting techniques like meeting the ball — very stable and it packs power too!!
  Blocks are also easy to vary in pace!

  That said, if you play more of a spin game with loop drives and such, it might not suit you that well...

  This rubber has a really strong character overall, so I think there's a big gap between people it suits and people it doesn't.

  I'd recommend pairing it with a softer blade.

  By the way, it happened to suit me really well lol
  I got some pretty good results in tournaments with it, so I really like it!

  このラバーはとにかくミートなどの弾く打法が安定して、威力も出る！！
  ブロックも緩急がつけやすい！

  しかし、ループドライブなど回転をかけて戦う方はあまり合わないかも、、、

  このラバーはとにかく癖が強く、合う人、合わない人の差が大きいかと思います。

  ラケットは、柔らかいラケットがオススメです。

  ちなみに、僕はこのラバーとの相性が良かったです笑
  大会で結構良い成績も出せたので気に入ってます！

  Mantra m (Experience: ４〜５ years) Yeah

  

  The Mantra M really grips the ball.
  And the spin is amazing for that one instant — used well, it can get up to around Tenergy level. Because that instant burst of spin is so strong,
  I'd recommend it for close-to-the-table players.
  For serves, backspin is good, but everything else has such a strong quirk to it
  that I don't have a great impression overall.
  Compared to German-made rubbers, when you think you've put spin on a serve
  it turns out you haven't — and remarkably, the Mantra can produce a knuckle ball with the exact same sound as when spin is actually on, which is a real strength.
  I think it's on the easier side for the short game.

  In the end, there's quite a lot of individual variation, so everyone should be careful before buying.

  マントラmは食い込みます。
  そして回転が一瞬だけすごいですうまく使えばテナジーぐらい
  になりますそして一瞬の回転量が凄いので、
  前陣の選手におすすめです
  サーブは下回転が良いですがそれ以外がクセがすごいので、
  あまりいいイメージはないです。
  ドイツ製と比べて、サーブの時に回転がかかったと思ったら
  かかって無くて、なんとマントラはかかった時と同じ音で
  ナックルを出せてそこがとても強いです
  台上はとてもしやすい方だと思います。

  結果的に　かなり個人差があるのでみなさんは注意して買ってください

  Moyashi (Experience: ２〜３ years) Great rebound

  

  The design caught my eye, so I put it on my backhand.
  Blocking and flat hits are easy, but I get the impression it's a bit hard to put spin on.
  The lifespan is a little short — after a while of use, it starts to slip.

  デザインが目につきバックに貼りました。
  ブロック、弾きはやりやすいですが、回転がすこしかけにくい印象です。
  寿命は少し短め。しばらく使っているとすべります

  HH (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Factoring flat hits and price, solid 8.5 overall

  

  I bought this because I was looking for a rubber suited to flat-hitting. The price is reasonable, which helps.
  If you hit it the way you would a spin-tension or tacky rubber, forehand shots can end up dropping short right away, so it's for people who consciously drive the ball forward themselves.
  Flat-swing techniques in general are easy to pull off, and it widened the range where I could go for flat hits.
  The ball path and timing are different from other popular spin-focused rubbers, so it has an annoying quality of its own, separate from tacky rubbers.
  The spin is average, maybe a bit lacking. If you think of it as being less affected by the opponent's spin on receives and blocks, you can look at that positively.
  If your form breaks down, the ball suddenly stops carrying, so for players who want to stay conscious of their posture and core when hitting, using this might actually improve the quality of their practice. You can adjust it a lot by changing hardness and thickness, so I thought it could also work well as a second or third rubber for less experienced players.

  ミート向きのラバーを探していたので購入。値段が良心的で助かります。
  スピンテンションや粘着の感覚で打つとフォア打ちの時点でボトボト落ちかねず、自分でボールを飛ばす意識がある人向けです。
  フラットに振る打法全般がやりやすく、ミートで狙える領域が拡がりました。
  スピンに重点を置いた他の流行ラバーとは球筋やタイミングが違ってくるので、粘着とはまた別の嫌らしさがあります。
  回転は平均的か少し物足りない程度。レシーブやブロックでボールに影響されづらいと考えると幸せになれます。
  体勢が崩れると途端にボールが飛ばないので、打球時の体勢や体幹を意識したい人が使えば練習などの質が上がるかもしれません。固さや厚さを変えれば幅の広い調整が出来るので、競技歴の浅い人の2枚目3枚目のラバーとしても良いのかなと思いました。

  Potchii (Experience: More than ２０ years) Can be a game-changer depending on how you use it

  

  After putting a topspin drive on the 3rd ball, what do you do next?

  That's where opinions on this rubber split.

  A: Go for a hard flat hit to put it away
  B: Keep attacking with topspin drives

  If you're a "B" type player, you might not rate this one that highly.

  Anyway, this rubber makes flat-hitting techniques really easy to pull off.
  Whether it's putting the ball away on the 5th ball off a 3rd-ball drive, countering an opponent's drive, or flat-hitting a backspin ball away in one shot, it gives you the same kind of consistency every time.

  On top of that, the short game is easy too.
  Rubbers that are easy to flat-hit with tend to pop up too much on light taps, but with the Mantra you don't need to worry about that — pushes bite in nice and sharp, and blocks are easy to keep stable.

  The grip is good, so if you brush it lightly, you can even get a loop drive to spin.

  
  This is a rubber I'd really recommend for the backhand side of a shakehand player who does a lot of flat-hitting, or for the forehand side of someone who's used to always following up a topspin drive with a smash.

  
  The "Goriki Kaisoku," which is also said to be good for flat-hitting, pairs well with a harder blade, but I'd recommend a softer blade for the Mantra. Five-ply wood, or an inner-carbon-type special blade.

  Because it draws a "moderate, slight arc" on flat-hit shots, this rubber gives you outstanding consistency.

  3球目でドライブをかけたあと、次球をどうするか。

  そこが、このラバーの評価の分かれ目です。

  A 強めにぶち当てて抜きにいく
  B ドライブで攻めていく

  この中でBを選ぶ人は、高い評価は付けにくいかも。

  とにかく、このラバーは、ミート系の打法がやりやすいんです。
  3球目からの、5球目ぶち抜きも、対ドライブのカウンターも、あるいは対下回転を一発でぶち抜くミートも、同じような安定感があります。

  それに加えて台上がやりやすい。
  ミートがやりやすいラバーは軽打で弾んでしまいがちですが、マントラはその心配なくツッツキがガッツリ切れますし、ブロックも安定させやすい。

  引っ掛かりが良いのでチョリっとかけるとループもかかる。

  
  弾くことが多いシェークのバック側や、

  「ドライブかけたら次球はスマッシュ」が染みついている人のフォア側に、ぜひ使ってもらいたいラバーです。

  
  同じくミート向けと言われる「剛力快速」は、硬めのラケットが合わせやすいですが、
  マントラは柔らかめを推奨します。木材なら5枚。特殊ならインナー系。

  ミート系で「程よいわずかな弧線」を描いてくれるので、抜群の安定感が生まれるラバーです。

  Just a Yukiwarashi (Experience: ２〜３ years) Perfect for backhand

  

  Borrowed a friend's and used it on my backhand.
  - Stable in rallies, but hard to get the ball moving without a proper swing.
  - On drives, the speed was so-so but there was quite a lot of spin. Same with loop drives.
  - Pushes and stops bit into the ball well and it was easy to vary length.
  - Serves felt easy to produce no matter the motion.

  Overall, I felt it's an ideal rubber for the backhand.
  It might suit players who want to solidify their fundamentals.
  For players who already have solid fundamentals, I think the Tenergy 64 or Fastarc C-1 would suit better.

  友達のを借りてバックに使用
  ・ラリーでは安定するが、しっかりスイン
  グをしないと飛びにくい。
  ・ドライブではスピードはそこそこだった
  が回転はかなりあった。ループも同様。
  ・ツッツキやストップは回転がしっかりか
  かり、長短もつけやすかった。
  ・サーブではどんなモーションでもやりや
  やすく感じた。

  総じてバックに最適なラバーだと感じた。
  基礎を定着させたいという選手には向いて
  るかもしれない。もう基礎がそれなりに定着している選手はテナジー64やファスタークc-1が向いていると思う。

  Fuji (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Good value for money

  

  I was looking for a rubber suited to countering, and a friend recommended this one, so I tried it.
  What I liked was the good grip on the ball and the moderately quick ball release.
  Those two things made countering easy.
  Since the ball release is a bit fast, it's somewhat insensitive to the opponent's spin, so receiving felt good too.
  That said, the trajectory is quite flat, so I felt the consistency was a bit iffy when attacking on my own.
  I think this suits players who use the grip of the sheet for a sharp push, then counter when the opponent lifts it up — basically people who rely a lot on flat-hitting techniques.

  カウンター向きのラバーを探しているなかで知人から勧められたので使用してみました。
  良かった点としては、引っ掛かりの良さと球離れの適度な速さです。
  この２つによってカウンターがやりやすかったです。
  球離れがやや速いので回転に対してある程度鈍感なのでレシーブも好感触です。
  ただ、弾道が直線的なので自分から攻めるときの安定感は微妙かなといった感じでした。
  シートの引っ掛かりを活かした切れたツッツキ→相手が持ち上げたのをカウンターといった戦い方、ミート系の打法を多用する方に向いていると思います。
