    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    A unique sticky rubber with weak bounce that demands thin scraping techniques. Highly rated for cutmen and backhand use, but poorly received by tensioned rubber users and aggressive players, with evaluations varying greatly by playing style and skill level.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Produces high spin when thinly scraped, excels at serves and pushes
    • Hard sponge provides excellent stability in close-to-net play and blocking
    • Weak bounce and heavy weight unsuitable for drive-oriented speed players
    • Specialized for cutmen and backhand with distinctive quirky ball characteristics
    • Generally inferior to same-price competitors like Kyohyo
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveSurprisingly compatible on the backhand side, making backhand drives easy to lift and blocking very manageable. With proper thin scraping technique, you can overwhelm opponents with spin.
    ▽ CriticalDoesn't bounce, lacks speed, and fails to grip despite being sticky. Lacks clear characteristics, making same-price alternatives like Kyohyo or Rakza Z more versatile choices.

      Kakihara Maru (Experience: 4〜5 years) Easy to counter after blocking

      Reviews by user

      This rubber is on the firmer side and its bounce is kept well in check. Because of that, I think it suits players who score through rallies rather than players who go for a single decisive winner. Pushes are average, but stops are easy to aim right at the net, and I was able to score a lot of points in the short game. On top of that, even if I get attacked, the controlled bounce lets me hang in there with blocks, and since the sponge is firm, it's easy to counter a loose drive, which lets you put pressure on your opponent. I wonder if the reason it gets so many low ratings is that a lot of people were expecting a tension rubber like Tenergy?

      Aibiss (Experience: Less than a year)

      Reviews by user

      If you have the skill, I think the Aibis can be a really good rubber
      You really need good technique. The rubber looks nice
      The throw angle is low, but Chinese players like that
      Ma Long also has a small throw angle. In Europe
      you need a rubber with a high arc, fast and high-speed.
      High-throw-angle rubbers are very sensitive to spin
      but the Aibis and Chinese forehand rubbers are different.
      On the forehand, you learn how to use the Aibis
      the correct way, by using it there.

      H,"2 (Experience: 2〜3 years) Rozena is way better

      Reviews by user

      At first I had high expectations since it's a Butterfly rubber, but even though it's a completely different type, Rozena is many times better.
      Despite being tacky, it doesn't generate much spin either. If I had to say something positive, maybe the short game is decent.

      Two cutter (Experience: 11〜20 years) This one's a problem...

      Reviews by user

      I'm a chopper who plays inverted on one side and long pips on the other.
      Hmm. How to put it. I'd say this is a tacky rubber that's hard to get a read on.
      It might make more sense to describe it as a significantly toned-down version of Vega China.
      I won't use it in actual matches, so I'm going to apply booster to it for fun and see how much it changes, lol.
      I thought it could work for a beginner chopper, but given the price, other tacky rubbers would probably be the first choice.
      Rakza Z, Xiang Long, Hui Long, Hurricane, and Skyline are attractive price-wise.
      Blue Grip V1, Omega China Yin, and Golden Tango stand out in performance, so this one might have a hard time competing with those options.

      Anyway, I'm going to apply booster on a Swat Carbon blade for fun and write a follow-up review, lol.

      STIGA enthusiast (Experience: 11〜20 years) Don't expect tension-rubber bounce from this

      Reviews by user

      I saw a lot of low ratings on YouTube, so I wanted to see for myself and tried the shop's demo rubber.
      Coming from a regular tension-rubber user's perspective, it really doesn't bounce. It bounces even less than Hurricane Neo 3. So I don't think it's for people who use tension or bouncy rubbers. The moment you bounce the ball on it, you go "huh!?" - that's how little bounce it has.

      By the way, I also asked a regular Hurricane user for their impressions from trying it... and they gave it a low rating too.

      Good points
      - If you brush the ball with the topsheet, the spin is amazing! Serves and pushes were excellent.

      I really can't think of who this is for, other than maybe choppers. Personally, it wasn't a rubber I liked much.

    • Tamifuru

      Tamifuru (Experience: 2〜3 years) Not a substitute for Spinart

      Reviews by user

      I originally bought this thinking it might work as a substitute for Spinart, but the feel is almost completely different. It's quite firm, so instead of an offensive blade I put it on a Matsushita Kouji blade, and it actually feels pretty good. It feels like an upgraded version of the Tackiness line. I think it would work well for beginner-to-intermediate players like me, who've been playing table tennis for about two or three years.

    • Snow rabbit

      Snow rabbit (Experience: 11〜20 years) Honestly, meh

      Reviews by user

      Honestly, it's a so-so rubber.

      The spin isn't really all that high
      and the speed is just average for a non-tension rubber.

      It's a tacky rubber that doesn't fit neatly into any category,
      but on the flip side, I'm not sure what type of player it's really aimed at.

      If I had to say, maybe someone who wants a harder version of Tackiness.

      So

      I think this is the kind of rubber you'd try as a stepping stone if you're using Tackiness and thinking about moving to another tacky rubber like Hurricane.

      If you want tacky-rubber spin, I think you'd be better off buying Hurricane instead, since it's around the same price or even cheaper.

      For someone who wants something in the Tackiness Hard position,

      I think it's good for choppers who use tacky rubber.
