    STIGA Vertical are our latest long pimple rubbers, developed in close collaboration with former Japanese National Team player Masato Shino. The pimple structure for Vertical 20 and Vertical 55 is placed in a vertical angle providing extra control and stability in your defensive strokes. These rubbers are made in Japan and developed specially for the ABS-ball to increase the spin of the modern defensive game.

      LAIZ (Experience:4〜5 years) Robust and powerful rubber

      Reviews by user

      I used Grass Dictex, curl p1, Badman Reloaded, and curl p4.

        The best thing about Vertical 55 is that it goes well into the table. Basically, it is low and it is intimidating, and when I cut it, it has a good hand taste and good rotation control ability.

        Beginners can do their best, but if they are given to a superior, it will be even more scary.

      seaweed (Experience:11〜20 years) Grain height cutting is now possible

      Reviews by user

      I have been using Spectrum, Spin Pips, Best Anti, etc., and occasionally tried to use high-grained rubbers (P4, P1V, Feint Long), but I couldn't control the cut and gave up.

      I mainly use the surface and swing hard from above, so I think the reason is that I can't swing like I'm rubbing the bottom every time with high-grained rubber.

      However, with this rubber, I can cut stably without making much adjustment to my usual swing.

      The sharpness and change are not as much as the high-grained rubber mentioned above, but this is the first time I've been able to use a high-grained rubber without feeling uncomfortable.

      This is probably because it is less affected by the rotation with the vertical grain, and because the sponge is hard, it feels like you are hitting with the surface of the racket.
      In addition, the bounce is suppressed, so even if you swing hard to a certain extent, it doesn't go over.

      Since I can use this rubber, which I can't use normal high-grained rubbers, I personally would like it to be used by front-end users who are aiming to improve their defensive stability rather than high-grained users.

      I tried putting a thin film on the Diode Pro. If you use this with a sense of how to knock down the grains, it really cuts.
      People say that it's easy to cut or not cut, that it's stable, that it cuts in a straight line, but I simply think that these grains are easy to cut with a lot of pulling force, and that it's easy to hold down, so it's fun to hit cuts! ! ! ! I don't know where I heard it, but I believed that horizontal grains emphasize change and vertical grains stabilize, but honestly I don't feel that way.
      Rather, vertical grains cut better, and horizontal grains draw a softer arc, so the cut is slower... or something like that lol
      To be honest, I don't think there's much difference now. A while ago, I thought that the Vertical 20 was a bit strange... that the vertical grain didn't suit me, but at least by changing the way I did it, the ball changed a lot, and my friends, juniors, and seniors started telling me, "It's completely different!", so I'm having a lot of fun playing table tennis now.
      Rather than being used from the beginning, it is highly recommended for those who have mastered the art of tilting the ball and applying spin by pulling it, as it will help with cuts and pushes.

      Morumofu (Experience:4〜5 years) Is it for cutting?

      Reviews by user

      I thought it was just right for cutting, so I put it on the shakeback side, and it was just right. I thought it was recommended for people with pens that are different from the previous team.

      R301 carbine (Experience:2〜3 years) GOD rubber

      Reviews by user

      Excellent Tsutsuki, excellent knuckles, and control is divine. The speed of the push is also good, and the fast serve like a bazooka
      If you have the technique, you are strong. Receive also returns without permission if you put out the rubber for the time being. I don't understand the rotation,
      It's perfect for those who can't return their serve, or those who want to throw out their knuckles and confuse them!

      Prefecture ranker (Experience:6〜10 years) The strongest weapon of modern table tennis cutman

      Reviews by user

      I tried it with horizontal 55, curl p1v, which has the same hardness as sponge 55 degrees.
      The first impression is the low cut, power drive, and ease of smash processing.
      The change is a little lower than the grain height of the horizontal grain, but if you can retouch the speed drive, the change will be irregular. Plus, it's low, and it's easy to make the other party make a net mistake.
      Tsuttsuki can be cut from the horizontal grain by attracting it and rubbing it thinly from the grip end.
      However, if the swing speed is not fast, it will not reach and you will make a net mistake. It's stable, and the push has irregular grain eyes, so it shakes a lot.
      The backhand can be used like the back or front by rubbing the elbow on the fulcrum.
      When the level around you rises and you reach the top level in the competition, you need a more stable rally than sharpness and change. Those who seek the same three points of stable ball distribution, change, and restraint
      Isn't it a good idea to use Cutman, who makes heavy use of backhand attacks?

      tempura (Experience:4〜5 years) Easy to use even if you are not a cutman!

      Reviews by user

      Unlike other grain heights, it is easy to attack even at grain heights because it is vertical.
      After returning the opponent's serve with the back rubber in the inverted state, it returns to the fore side and even if the inversion is not in time, it can be returned by driving even though it is grainy!
      However, the amount of change is small compared to the sideways, but if you get used to it, you can return it in the state of a knuckle!
