    Spring Spong technology combined with a hard sponge and a sticky top-sheet make this a very dynamic rubber.

    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly praised for exceptional spin performance, but requires strong technique and is heavy. Frequently compared to Tenergy 05, it appeals to spin-focused players and defensive specialists.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Overwhelming spin comparable to or exceeding Tenergy 05
    • Spring sponge design grips the ball well; manageable despite hardness
    • Prioritizes rotation over speed with excellent stability
    • Outstanding short game techniques with sharp, clean strokes
    • Requires power to use; weaknesses include weight and humidity sensitivity
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe spring sponge allows for incredibly high-quality spin balls when using an engulfing stroke. Better ball quality than Tenergy 05, combining the best of tension and sticky rubbers.
    ▽ CriticalPerformance deteriorates after about 1.5 months of use, becoming just a hard rubber. Also extremely weak to humidity; spin fails to grip on rainy days.

      Drive! (Experience: 4〜5 years)

      Reviews by user

      It generates tons of spin, and my topspin drives got a lot stronger!
      I was surprised that even from an awkward stance, the drive would go in easily.

      Q (Experience: More than 20 years) Pairs well with a hard blade

      Reviews by user

      It feels somewhat similar to Chinese rubber, but you can use it with the sink-in style of a tension rubber, without worrying about hitting the ball thin. Serves, receives, drives — every one of them is easy to handle. I think a slightly harder blade makes it easier to feel the contact with the ball than a blade with a soft feel. If the weight bothers you, using a lighter blade on your backhand can let you generate spin that matches or exceeds Tenergy.

      Right after I put it on the blade and picked it up
      , at that stage already
      I felt "oh, this might be tough for me" —
      the weight was heavier than
      I expected. You'll probably need
      a certain amount of power.

      That said, the spin performance is amazing.
      Serves in particular have a strong immediate effect,
      and my ace rate on sharply cut backspin serves
      shot way up.

      With topspin drives, if your form is set up right,
      you get a heavy ball.
      Whenever I felt like "oh, that one was really sharp,"
      it almost never came back.

      But because it's hard, even a slightly loose swing
      turns into a weak, spinless ball,
      giving the opponent a chance.

      Its strength is spin.
      Its challenges are weight and hardness.

      I'd like to get good enough
      to really use it well,
      but it might have been a bit too soon for me.

      Teeburu Tenisu (Experience: 2〜3 years) Huh!?

      Reviews by user

      The first time I hit with it, it wasn't as hard as the listed hardness suggests — it's surprisingly soft. The topsheet is slightly tacky too. Topspin drives get strong spin. Serves also spin well and receives are easy to do. And best of all, flat-hitting techniques were easy to pull off. Maybe because I put it on an outer carbon blade, but the speed was great too. Why not give it a try?

      Yaeru (Experience: 4〜5 years) A new sensation?

      Reviews by user

      Spin → Slightly less than NEO Hurricane 3, but it felt like it had more spin than any flagship tension rubber from any manufacturer.

      Bounce → It's on the bouncier side among tacky rubbers, and it's quite easy to vary the depth and pace.

      Short game → Stops land very short. With pushes, the opponent often netted the ball before a push rally even developed.

      Topspin drive → Up to mid-distance you could hit heavy balls, but I felt that if you lack power it quickly turns into a straight, spinless ball. Curve drives could be hit low and skidding.

      Block → It flies up slightly the moment it makes contact, so it's easy to get the ball in, and countering was also quite easy. You could also produce blocks that dug deep into the opponent's court.

      About the rubber → "Heavy"

      Who it suits → Anyone who feels "I want more bounce from a tacky rubber!" or "I want to play with more variation in pace!"

      Reviews by user

      The balance of this rubber itself is fantastic. I expected it to be hard to handle because of the firm sponge, but there's no particular quirk to getting used to it, and on the forehand you can hit balls as good as Tenergy or better. Serves also don't tend to go long, the spin is beyond complaint, and the short game is extremely stable too. If someone with good feel uses it, it's like adding wings to a tiger. Right now I think Tenergy on the backhand and this rubber on the forehand is the best combination.

      Mimomimorun (Experience: 4〜5 years) Overwhelming spin!

      Reviews by user

      I'm a chopper, so I tried this rubber on my forehand.

      I switched to this from Morist DF, so I was worried it might bounce too much, but it was actually the opposite — the bounce was moderate and I could hit sharply-cut chops with overwhelming spin. I've also tried Tenergy 05, but the "gripping" feeling is far stronger with Spinart. On the other hand, the speed isn't what you'd expect from a tension rubber. The trajectory also tends to be high, so rather than punching through, most of your points will come from making the opponent overshoot or net the ball off your spin.
      The short game is handled competently, but
      it leans heavily toward stability over power. So when you want to attack, you have to swing through it yourself or it won't decide the point.
      Blocking is surprisingly hard to stop with, and it takes on the opponent's spin directly, so you need to block consciously. It doesn't feel like it becomes automatic just by touching the ball.

      Overall,
      Spin: the strongest
      Speed: not completely lacking
      Control: very good
      so it's the kind of rubber I'd recommend for
      players who win by grinding it out
      players with good timing and strength
      players who control spin variation and placement
      choppers who also want to counter-attack with sharp chops!
