    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as an entry-level rubber for beginners to intermediate players, featuring excellent control and moderate spin. While lacking speed, it is frequently recommended for backhand use and has established its place as an upgrade rubber.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Superior control performance and easy to use
    • Ideal entry and step-up rubber for beginners to intermediate
    • Especially recommended for backhand application
    • Speed performance is insufficient
    • Good value for money and affordable price
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveFor a tension rubber at this price point, it's truly a game-changer. With soft sheet and sponge, depending on how you use it, you might be able to generate spin that exceeds Tenergy.
    ▽ CriticalFor advanced players and above, the speed is definitely insufficient. Additionally, when applied to a non-bouncy racket, the ball won't fly at all, so caution is necessary.

      I used this on my backhand side
      <Good points>
      Easy to do backhand topspin drives
      Easy to do chiquita
      Stops actually stop
      <Bad points>
      Sometimes it drops short and hits the net
      No speed

      Personally I found it very easy to use
      I'd recommend it for the backhand side

      I didn't expect much when I bought it, but it's really easy to use and has become one of my favorites.
      Compared to G1 it falls short on spin, speed, and grip on the ball, but it makes up for that with control that's good enough to more than compensate.
      That said, it might feel a bit lacking if you're trading blows from mid-distance.
      I was torn between this and Vega Europe — it's not a perfectly fair comparison since the blades were different, but I felt Vega Europe was a bit lacking on spin and speed even close to the table, so with Rigan I have no complaints close to the table, and I'm glad I went with this one.

      Elbow pain revival (Experience: 4〜5 years) Works really well!!

      Reviews by user

      I'm using this on the forehand side of a 7-ply wood blade to rework my whole game.
      It's not fast, but both my topspin drives and blocks are stable.
      The consistency during matches especially stands out, and I've been winning more.
      That said, the short game and pushes tend to run long, so you need to be really careful (part of that is just my lack of skill though...).
      In my case, my serves have gotten shorter and with more spin. On the other hand, my knuckle-ball long serves keep getting smashed because they're not fast enough……
      An intermediate player I know said "what is this rubber... no way...", but for where I'm at right now it feels just right.
      The value for money is good too, so I think it's worth trying at least once.

      Kondo Udonko (Experience: 11〜20 years) A mushy hitting feel

      Reviews by user

      The topsheet is probably exactly the same as GTT — the ball grips well and spins nicely.
      The sponge is different though, so the shot feel changes: GTT flies in a flatter, more direct line, while Rigan produces a bigger arc. The feel is soft too, and it's great and stable for just "getting the ball back on the table," but it doesn't feel suited to hitting through with quick, snappy shots.

      Personally I prefer GTT since it's cheaper and the ball flies straighter.

      I love table tennis (Experience: 6〜10 years) So-so

      Reviews by user

      I used it on my backhand side.
      The spin was really great.
      That said, the speed wasn't much.
      The arc is very high, and against backspin it's
      good!

      Cutman No.3 (Experience: More than 20 years) Tried it for chopping.

      Reviews by user

      I tried this on the forehand side as a chopper. It's surprisingly well-balanced, and my chops don't float up. The sponge is soft with a good amount of grip on the ball, so it's easy to control. My chops have decent speed and I feel like I can place them deep on the table. I can also attack even when I'm away from the table, so it seems like a good rubber for choppers who mix offense and defense. That said, the spin is a bit lacking, so I'm hoping the newly released "Rigan Spin" will make up for that.

      came Swing it and it's in!

      Reviews by user

      If you swing through properly, any ball goes in!
      It's a magic rubber that lets you attack aggressively without mistakes lol

      For beginners to lower-intermediate players who want to build fundamentals while still winning, this is a rubber I'd recommend.

      That said, the ball does tend to get light, unfortunately.
      Going up against a higher-level player might be tough.
