    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    An advanced-level rubber with excellent spin and control characteristics. Developed as a successor to Tenergy 05, it excels in durability while featuring a firm feel and distinctive odor. It delivers superior performance for skilled players who can master its characteristics.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent rotation with powerful drive and serve spin
    • Long-lasting durability with high-quality top sheet
    • Firm feel with good grip sensation and ball retention
    • Easy counter-attacks with strong aggressive capability
    • Distinctive strong odor requiring skill and adaptation
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe sheet feels soft and provides a clear sense of gripping the ball. While it doesn't produce Tenergy's speed, the rotation is comparable or superior, and durability is significantly longer.
    ▽ CriticalDifficult to lift against backspin and lacks Tenergy's auto-feel, requiring proper technique and power. Also heavier and less suitable for hard hitters.

      Table tennis neat (Experience: 2〜3 years) Overwhelming stability

      Reviews by user

      [This is for the forehand side]
      I used to use the G-1, and my first impression was that this one doesn't grip quite as much spin as the G-1.
      But it's far more stable than the G-1 — even in topspin rallies, if you hit it solidly it goes in, and meeting the ball was easy too.
      For the short game, the G-1 was still better, though. I think this rubber suits players who have some power.

      Reviews by user

      I've been hitting with this for about a month since re-gluing it, and here's my take: the sponge is on the firmer side and the grip is good, so when you really let the ball sink in and drive, the spin and speed are insane. It's also easy to receive with, and you can return the ball low. That said, if your form breaks down a bit or you hit it half-heartedly, it easily turns into a flat, dead ball. Also, the rubber feels a little heavy. I think the performance is quite high, but beginners will probably take some time to get used to it. Once you're used to it, I think it offers better value for money than Tenergy.

      Niwa believer (Experience: 2〜3 years) Classic Tenergy, elevated

      Reviews by user

      The spin performance is outstanding, period.
      Serves spin really well, and on returns, if you really cut a push hard, you get a low, spinny ball. Drives also feel like they land on the opponent's court and shoot forward with a real snap. I feel like it works fine even with a bouncy blade. You should definitely try it.

      Table tennis Taro (Experience: 2〜3 years)

      Reviews by user

      Very easy to use!
      I put it on an Infinity VPS-V
      and topspin drives and forehand hits from tricky angles were easy to pull off.
      But it's quite prone to flying, so I think
      it's better to pair it with a blade
      that prioritizes control.

      The grip on the ball is incredible — even hitting down on it from above, there's no fear!
      Even without a clean hit, it still carries through.

      Yama (Experience: 2〜3 years) Clearly better performance than Q4!

      Reviews by user

      I've only used the Q4 in the Q series, so I can't compare it to the Q3, but just touching the sheet surprised me. The grip on the ball is beyond the Q4's. Both serves and drives have amazing spin and speed, yet control was easy too, maybe because the ball sinks in so well. It's a bit pricey, but it's worth more than what you pay for it!

      Alexandra (Experience: 6〜10 years) Feels like a softer Q4

      Reviews by user

      It feels like a noticeably milder version of the Q series.
      The short game is as easy as ever.

      It's easy to generate spin, so loop drives and serves are outstanding.
      Please do give it a try.
