    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly praised as an entry-level rubber for beginners and intermediate players, offering excellent control and spin at a low price point. The back-face application receives notably higher evaluations than front-face usage.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Superior control and stability make it ideal for novice players
    • Excellent spin generation suitable for serves and loop drives
    • Lightweight and easy to handle, perfect for tension rubber introduction
    • Speed output is insufficient; pairing with hard rackets recommended
    • Back-face application is more recommended than front-face
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveAfter switching from Mark V, spin generation became easier and drive shots stabilized significantly. The soft impact makes it excellent for beginners.
    ▽ CriticalSpeed performance is clearly inadequate, and the ball won't fly properly unless paired with a bouncy racket. Not recommended for front-face applications.

      Reviews by user

      I'd been curious about this one for a while, so I bought it.
      The sheet has a translucent look, similar in appearance to the C1.
      The sponge is orange, which looks cool.
      When I hit with it, I got the impression it's fairly soft and easy to use.
      It's kind of like Butterfly's Rozena — the Rigan feels like a more user-friendly version of Rakza.
      It's not that cheap, so it's worth trying out.

      Compared to similarly priced rubbers like Vega, Factive, and Fly Att, this one has a slight edge in spin.

      Even experienced players can use it comfortably on their backhand.

      Since it produces a good arc, it's easy to lift backspin balls with your drive,
      and while it's on the softer side, it's not overly mushy — it keeps just the right amount of firmness, so it doesn't lose out against topspin either.

      Pushes also cut nicely. It doesn't bounce much on light hits, so receiving is easy too.

      That said, since the bounce is a bit weak, it's a little tough to put on the forehand with a 5-ply blade.

      A 7-ply blade like the Swat or Allround Classic 7 seems like a better match.

      It's also a good rubber for the backside penhold style.
      Naturally it works for beginners, but it's also good enough for advanced players who are just using it as a "connecting" rubber.

    • Black Storm

      Black Storm Good middle-end rubber

      Reviews by user

      It has that classic high-quality rubber sheet feel you'd expect from Yasaka.
      The sheet grips the ball with a nice soft bite, giving it outstanding stability.
      The sponge has good rebound, so the ball flies off comfortably.
      The absolute numbers aren't huge, but it's easy to put spin on, making it great for topspin rallies.
      It has a well-balanced set of performance traits.
      The speed might depend a bit on the blade you use.
      If you're struggling with the ball just not being stable, this is a rubber worth trying at least once.

      Reviews by user

      It's easy to control and really easy to hit with.
      Speed and spin are decent too.
      I think it's a perfect step up from Mark V.

    • Hikuru [Chinese style penholder]

      Hikuru [Chinese style penholder] (Experience: 2〜3 years) Recommended on the back of the middle pen!

      Reviews by user

      Used "thick" on the backside of a Chinese penhold blade.
      Control... godly
      Spin... quite a lot for a control-oriented rubber. Easy to lift backspin.
      Speed... just the right speed for control. Not too fast, not too slow, feels great.

      It feels like a rubber that takes something like Rozena or Vega Europe, boosts the control, and drops the other stats just a tiny bit.
      But even so, its performance is more than good enough.

    • Kidney Bean

      Kidney Bean (Experience: 11〜20 years) The best rubber on the back

      Reviews by user

      Used on the backside of a Chinese penhold blade.
      Cut to Chinese penhold size (leaving about 1.5cm of margin), 1.8mm thickness, it weighed 40g.
      The surface feels a little bumpy.

      Both the sponge hardness and weight are just right, making it ideal for the backside of a Chinese penhold blade.
      It also puts on more spin than you'd expect from a softer rubber.
