- Against topspin, the ball really flies through the air, it's outstanding.
- Counter-spinning shots are also easy, and even balls you just react to and meet instinctively will sink into the sponge and naturally pick up topspin.
- Even hitting flat, the ball sinks in enough that you can release it right where you're aiming.- Once it starts to wear down, you don't feel much grip on the ball anymore when hitting against backspin.
- Sometimes during rallies the ball drops off when I swing.
- Because it flies out so strongly, there's always a bit of fear that you'll overblock.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I played with the 1.7 sponge thickness (since I'm a chopper).
It says the sponge hardness is 48 degrees, but it felt too soft to be 48.
Chops had a nice soft, floaty feel and landed right on the table, so it was easy to handle.
It was a bit lacking in speed, so next time I want to try it with the 2.0 thickness.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

48g in a UM sheet.
- Easy to handle!
- Easy to put spin on, with spin levels on par with the 05!
- Even with spin comparable to the 05, the pimples seem a bit longer, so it's easy to punch the ball and hit fast drives too!
- The sheet is surprisingly soft and grips the ball well, so it's plenty usable on the backhand, but it also has a satisfying feel and ball-holding on the forehand — no weak points!
- Mixing in sidespin for connecting shots is super easy!
As the title suggests, it's an all-around rubber somewhere between Tenergy 05 and 80!
What bothered me a bit was that since the sheet is a little soft, pushes cut with the sheet tend to float up, and I felt like I picked up more of my opponent's spin on counter-drives and blocks.
It has great value for money, so if you're torn, I'd say go with it on your backhand!
Also, as several other reviews mention, compared to the R53 it's easier to handle but a bit more modest in performance.
The pimple shape seems similar to the R53, though it's a bit closer to the 80's shape with slightly faster ball release.
Hope this helps.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

This rubber has a German hardness rating of 48, and when you put it on your backhand, the ball sinks in nicely and you can produce exactly the shot you're going for.
The disappointing part is how short its lifespan is. That said, there's also a green version available, so overall I think it's a really good rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Only the butterfly can win (Experience: 4〜5 years) Feels like it's between Tenergy 80 and 64

The first thing I noticed was that it felt soft for its hardness rating. For both spin and speed, I'd say it's somewhere between Tenergy 80 and 64. I'd recommend it for the backhand.

Used the 2.3mm Max thickness version. Before cutting it down it was 69g, after cutting it down to size about 48g.
The trajectory is flat and it has quite a lot of bounce. I'd say the sheet is fairly soft.
This rubber's defining traits are how well it launches the ball forward and its strength against topspin.
Topspin rallies, counters, and flat hits are all no problem, but the shots come out cleaner than I expected.
If anything, the ball trajectory is clean and consistent, closer to what you'd get from a Japanese-made rubber.Hitting against backspin is on the harder side for its hardness range, due to the low arc and how quickly the ball leaves the rubber.
The short game also tends to float up a bit, so you need to be a little careful there.The biggest downside is how quickly it deteriorates — within one to two weeks the tension drops off and it loses the speed that makes it special.
Since the sheet is thin to begin with, it doesn't last very long as a rubber either.The speed at which it wears down after you start using it is a concern, but overall it's a good rubber with real character.

Using the Max version on my backhand.
No complaints at all about the spin.
Compared to the discontinued R47, the bounce is just slightly better. Compared to typical tension rubbers, the sheet is thin, so it's light and easy to swing.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
