    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    An advanced-level rubber favored by experts, featuring a hard sponge with exceptional spin characteristics. Highly polarizing due to requiring strong technique and power, making it unsuitable for intermediate players.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Hard sponge produces explosive fast drives when fully swung
    • Outstanding spin quantity, the best feature of this rubber
    • Heavy weight (around 60g for extra thick) limits player compatibility
    • Produces flat balls without proper sticky technique
    • Excellent for serves, short-range techniques, and counters
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveWhen you compress the sponge properly, incredible balls come out. For sticky technique users, rotation is exceptional and speed is surprisingly fast for a Kyohyo. The crisp sound is also very satisfying.
    ▽ CriticalAs a Chinese rubber, quality consistency varies with occasional scratches or dirt on new products. The hard sponge requires strong power and technique—without both, it becomes uncontrollable and produces flat shots.

      Yasuken (Experience: 4〜5 years) Highly recommended for choppers

      Reviews by user

      Since it's heavy and hard, if you don't have a fair amount of strength, throwing consecutive drives can tire you out fast.
      But the grip on the ball is good, so if you drive it properly, it really goes up and over.
      And what I think is best of all is the push.
      I used the thin version, and I was really happy that I could consistently produce push after push that was low and full of spin.
      Also, chops go in consistently too — sidespin chops, knuckle chops, and curving long chops are all easy, so I'd recommend it for choppers as well.

      Reviews by user

      I think it's very good. It gets a ton of spin and felt very similar to Hurricane's blue sponge, but since it's 50 degrees hardness, it didn't have much pace.

      Both speed and spin are insane. Since it's hard, blocking is super easy. But it's heavy. I don't think you can use it well without power. If you don't have much power, I'd recommend putting it on a light blade or a flexible one.

      Ken (Experience: 2〜3 years) Just plain good

      Reviews by user

      Compared to Nittaku's NEO3, the arc is higher and I had far fewer net mistakes. With NEO3 the ball stays shallow and topspin rallies are tough, but with this one you get proper distance in proportion to your swing. I think it's a great rubber for players who like to get into rallies from mid-distance. As for the tackiness of the sheet, whether it's NEO3 or PRO3, once you've broken in the tacky sheet it doesn't really matter, so I felt the spin performance itself doesn't change. It just felt like the extra sponge weight on this one bumped up the power and spin as a result.
      That said, it's still pretty heavy, so unless you do strength training, you might hit good balls in practice but not be able to use it well in an actual match.

      Let me say this first. Everyone says it's hard, but I think this is about right for a tacky rubber.
      Because it's hard, you can really grip and bite into the ball with the sheet, and it boosts ball speed.
      Okay, let's get to the main point.
      - For topspin drives, you get a shot with tons of spin that feels really heavy. That said, it tends to land shallow and isn't quite a finishing shot. Sometimes it draws a big arc, other times it flies flat. When it goes flat, it skims off the table and either extends way out or dives down.
      - For pushes, the feel when it bites cleanly is addictive, and the ball goes out low and flat.
      Some people say it doesn't carry once you move away from the table, but I think that's not true. In my case, I got flat, piercing drives like Chinese players hit, and they also skimmed right off the table.

      Field (Experience: 6〜10 years) Sheet grip and hard sponge

      Reviews by user

      My first impression was that it's really hard.
      It doesn't show its good side much on light hits.
      As you'd expect from a tacky rubber, hitting it with a strong impact gives you a sharp shot. A strong impact also gives you a lot of spin, so you can score by mixing in knuckle-ish light hits to make the opponent misjudge the ball, exploiting the difference in ball quality.
      The rubber itself is heavy and it's tough once you move away from the table, but it's packed full of that nasty tacky-rubber character, so if you feel like you can't get on top with a normal tension rubber, it might be worth trying.

      It's hard, so it's heavy. Being heavy, you can hit heavy balls. Overall I thought it was good. If you can handle tacky rubber, you can probably manage this one. But since it's fairly hard and heavy, you can't just make it fly like a normal high-tension rubber — you need proper technique. If you hit it with proper form, you get really good shots, and I don't think you need to swing with all your strength either. Also, counters and chops are easy to do with it.
