Spin, power, consistency, precision.
Perform like hell: The 47.5 ° hard sponge with large pores creates catapult and power for a variety of spin and tempo strikes.
Create magic spin: The advanced, plastic ball-optimized top sheet made of 100% natural rubber allows maximum spin and magical flight curves.
Constancy and precision through perfectly matched sponge and rubber components.
Ideal to kick the plastic ball with more quality.
For players who understand spin and precision as the ultimate basis for their modern topspin game.

Just like the title says, it really lives up to its name.
Even backspin balls come up surprisingly easily. Even the strong player at my school said the drive feels heavy. It works on both forehand and backhand.
That said, when driving from mid-distance to away from the table, the thick version just barely makes it onto the table, so if you like to score through topspin rallies, I think the max thickness (2.1mm) version is better.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Gengar (Experience: 6〜10 years) A step up toward Rasanter

Mounted 1.9mm on my MK7, came out to 50.7g.
The power is great when you really let the ball sink into the sponge and drive through it.
Topspin drives are consistent, but I felt a bit unsure about backspin returns. That said, I think that's understandable given the price.
This is a good step-up rubber before moving to a Rasant.
This rubber will get the ball on the table fine, but if you want more power, I'd switch to a Rasant.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

one (Experience: 4〜5 years) Solid arc that lands well on the table, no trouble with the short game either

This compares the feel to my combo of Ligan Spin + Shuang MFP (single-ply blade).
With the 5-ply blade + Hexer PowerGrip combo, I can get a solid arc and the ball lands on the table much more reliably. Forehand counters and blocks land on the table really well too. Of course, since there's a difference between Ligan Spin + single-ply blade and Hexer PowerGrip + plywood blade, I can't say for certain this is purely down to the rubber's performance, but I no longer have shots where a hard topspin drive (that I meant to hit hard) comes out flat with no arc and sails long. Serves and pushes also feel like they carry more spin than with Ligan Spin. With a Yg-style backspin serve, I can get an ace maybe one in two or three tries — though that's just in practice. It also feels like there are fewer situations where I get countered hard because I failed to get enough spin on the ball. Hitting a ball that has pace tends to produce a good quality topspin drive, but with a ball that has no pace and just drops, or a knuckle-ish ball, unless I match the contact point and angle well and swing fast enough to really drive into it, I either don't get enough spin and it goes long, or I can't generate enough pace and it catches the net. So I think I need to practice so I can keep a stable swing even when my position is off.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

My coach was using this one, and since I was trying to decide on a rubber, he lent it to me. At first the tension rubber felt unfamiliar, but I ended up loving it. It's got insane speed and great spin, so I decided on it right away. This is the one. Honestly, the value for money surprised me.

This value for money surprised me. Maybe because the sheet is thin, the spin is off the charts. It comfortably beats the Rakza series (except Z) and Vega (except China and DEF). It's on the harder side, so if you hit it properly you get speed too, but that made it a little harder to control. Going forward, I'm aiming for the district tournament title with this plus the Hexer Grip I have on my backhand.

Kind of like an attacking version of Hexer Grip?
Speed, spin, and hardness all went up,
but I feel like it lost a bit of control in exchange.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I use a custom Chinese penhold blade based on the Viscaria, made about 20 years ago.
Before this rubber I was using Break Pro (the provincial-team version).I stopped playing competitively a long time ago, and these two are the only recent rubbers I know, so I'm evaluating based on comparing them.
The prices happened to be the same for both (bought from different places), both are 2.1mm thick, and both are black.
Here's my personal review summary below.Break Pro → Hexer Power Grip
Spin: 9.5 → 8
Speed: 8 → 8.5
Trajectory: 9 → 7.5
Weight: 10 → 7.5
Sound: 6.5 → 9With the former, balls that should clear the net by about 3 ball-widths
often clipped the net instead, and I felt the trajectory was about 3 to 5 ball-widths lower.Even though there's a sinking-in feeling, surprisingly the spin doesn't seem to load onto the ball as much as you'd expect.
That said, in topspin rallies the speed is above average and the spin is fairly high too, with a sense of flying in an arc.
Comparing the two, my impression is that this one flies in a much more linear way.With a brushing style you get more net misses, and the more you lean toward flat hitting, the more it seems to fly, proportionally.
The fact that it's light and makes a pleasant metallic sound earns it high marks from me.
