    The new STIGA Mantra is developed with the latest Japanese rubber technology and offers the perfect balance of synthetic and natural rubber. This new rubber mixture creates a tension between the surface and the sponge resulting in an incredible catapult effect. Microscopic air bubbles in the sponge (Oxygen Capsule System) provide great speed with a stable and consistent hit and touch. This rubber is perfect for players who require the highest in rubber quality and performance. Mantra is suitable for all types of players, with sponge variation ranging from soft to hard.

    - The soft sponge creates a high spin rubber with excellent feel
    - Perfect soft sponge sound
    - Tremendous feeling from long distance
    - Exceptional control in serve and returns

    • Ideal for backhand, provides stable counter-attack play

    • Outstanding balance between soft sponge and hard sheet
    • Distinctive loud impact sound enhances player confidence
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveAn affordable Tenacious alternative for those who find it too expensive. Easy counter-hitting, soft feel, great spin generation, and excellent for backhand use.

      I've been really into STIGA rubbers lately.
      This rubber grips the ball well and produces heavy shots. You can switch between a speed-oriented topspin drive and a spin-focused one, which helps you win points.

      This was newly released and cheap, so I decided to try it.
      Since it's inexpensive I didn't expect much, but I was surprised once I actually hit with it.
      Both speed and spin were more than satisfactory, performance-wise it was right up there with premium rubbers and the post-Tenergy generation.

      My first impression was the sound of the ball hitting it — a loud "crack-crack" just like in the glue era.
      It feels great to hit with, and it really lifts your mood.

      Used on the backhand it flew too much and was hard to control, but on the forehand it was soft enough to give a nice gripping feel, which was good.
      Attacking off the backhand was difficult, but the chiquita and flick on receive were good.
      The trajectory is fairly flat. It's affected a bit by incoming spin, but it's within a manageable range.

      Performance like this at this price is pretty much unheard of these days.
      Definitely give it a try!
