V > 01 Stiff is another innovation of the VICTAS V > 01 premium series for ambitious players. The German-Japanese team of designers (GJ Tec) succeeded in developing an extremely spinny offensive rubber which offers the perfect balance between speed and control to variable offensive strategists. The pimple geometry which is slightly more direct compared to V > 01, as well as the maximum tension of the High Energy Tension rubber sheet of V > 01 Stiff provide for excellent energy transfer when the bat hits the ball, thus developing great speed. The open-pore, state-of-the-art 45° high-performance sponge which is slightly softer than in V > 01 provides for more control in your play (“Power & Balance concept”). With this new sponge / top rubber sheet combination, V > 01 Stiff enables extremely fast and spinny topspin strokes with an aggressive ball trajectory. Especially in mid-distance topspin rallies, the V > 01 Stiff rubber unfolds its full potential. The enormous tackiness of the High Energy Tension rubber additionally enables dangerous, variant-rich serves and magnificent control in over-the-table play.

Switched over from Skyline Neo 3.
It's pretty stable and easy to use.
Stiff is good too, but once I get more used to it, I think I'll switch to Extra.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Let me write about how to play with this rubber. First off,
this isn't a rubber where you close the racket angle and brush over the top of the ball like with Tenergy - you get good shots by opening the racket face more, hitting through the ball, and sinking it in to send it flying. This applies to Extra and Limber too. If your swing speed is fast enough, you'll still get decent spin. Once you learn the stroke through multi-ball training, this rubber is easy to control, so I think you can play a stable, consistent match with it. Brushing techniques grip reasonably well on the sheet too, so that's good. But in the end, it all comes down to getting used to it.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Switched over from Hurricane Pro 3 Turbo Orange.
It bounces well even on light hits.
Topspin drives sink in nicely and land safely on the table.
There's really no technique that's hard to pull off with this.
I think this is a rubber that would suit pretty much anyone.

It kind of pops upward on its own, so lifting underspin is easy, but it pops up so much that in the short game you'll overshoot unless you're really light with it.
Speed is average, spin is upper-middle to lower-high, and it's got good consistency, but watch out for overshooting.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

This is a completely different rubber from the other V>15 rubbers like Extra or Limber. Above all, topspin drives and blocks are really consistent. If you put too much power in you'll overshoot, but if you play your normal game, it feels like the ball just goes in whenever you make contact. It also has good grip in the short game, so thin brushing techniques were doable too. I think it's a rubber you can use on either the forehand or backhand.
I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a more consistent topspin drive, or who wants to practice thin-brushing techniques.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

These are my thoughts after using V>15 Extra first.
I used this on the backhand side. With Extra, I struggled to lift low balls, especially underspin, but with Stiff it lifts naturally. The trajectory is stable, similar to Fastarc C1. The push has just as much bite and the stop stays just as short as with Extra. The chiquita holds the ball slightly longer than Extra, making it easier to put sidespin on. Speed drops a little, but you could say it's easier to vary your pace. The hardness is just right for intermediate players, and the ball quality from mid-distance is high too. In terms of overall power - combining speed and spin - I'd say it's on par with Extra.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I use this on my backhand, and flicking against underspin is easy. It's also more consistent than Extra in rallies.
That said, my blocks often pop up too high,
and if I put too much power in, it turns into a high loop that gets countered, so you need to adjust how much force you use. Still, it has speed and gets plenty of spin, so I'd recommend it if you want to play a strong short game.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
