    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly evaluated as a cost-performance racket rubber with excellent grip strength and spin performance in the 4,000 yen price range. It excels in forehands with a feeding motion, delivering stability comparable to premium rubbers like Razanter, though its weight and hardness limit its appeal to certain playing styles.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Outstanding grip strength and stable drive performance
    • High spin capability unexpected at this price point
    • Excellent power and catch when loading the ball
    • Notable weight issue requiring technique adjustment
    • Suitable for middle school through advanced players
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe grip strength is incredible, transmitting the feeling of holding and striking the ball, which is very satisfying. For this price, the spin performance is excellent, providing stable arc trajectories from loop drives to speed drives.
    ▽ CriticalUsing extra-thick and thick versions results in extreme weight up to 54 grams, requiring skillful handling. Scrubbing motion tends to cause net errors; hitting with a striking approach produces better ball quality.

      Manjiro (Experience: 2〜3 years) Lives up to its name

      Reviews by user

      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.

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

      Reviews by user

      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.

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

      Reviews by user

      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.

      Hekachihochiki (Experience: Less than a year) Insane value for money

      Reviews by user

      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.

      Harimoto Tomokazu (Experience: 2〜3 years) This one dominates the value-for-money spin-tension scene

      Reviews by user

      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.

      I love cospa ♥️ (Experience: 2〜3 years) Great value spin-type tension rubber

      Reviews by user

      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.

      Maru Games (Experience: 6〜10 years) Not quite as hyped as on YouTube...

      Reviews by user

      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 → 9

      With 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.
