      Johnny (Experience: 2〜3 years) Might be good for beginners?.

      I put this on my backhand.
      Right after applying it, blocks and drives were easy to hit...
      but as days went by, I couldn't hit at all anymore.
      So since it wears out fast, you're better off rebuying it often or switching to a different rubber.

      This is a rubber that lets you keep up stable rallies close to the table.

      That said, the further back you go — mid-distance, away from the table — the less stable it gets, and speed drops too.

      Spin is decent.

      It feels like the speed and spin were dialed down a bit in exchange for better control.
      I'd recommend it for beginners' backhands!

      I'm using this on the backhand of my Butterfly SK7 α
      and I really liked how stable it feels when hitting on the backhand.

      Once you've tried a tension rubber
      this one doesn't bounce enough, so ironically rallies aren't stable.

      But when it comes to receiving, it has absolute stability.

      For people who haven't tried tension rubbers
      I'd recommend it for the backhand!

      At one sports shop, this rubber seems to be their top pick for beginners.
      It's cheap, easy to use, and I think the performance is just right for beginners.
      Before tension rubbers came out, this was popular even among advanced players back then.

      Dora I Doraemon (Experience: 4〜5 years) Control is insane! lol lol

      Reviews by user

      More than spin, more than speed, what stands out most is the control.
      I had it in medium sponge, and compared to tension rubbers it really doesn't bounce much, which is a bit of a shame, but it doesn't give you the habit of backing away from the table, and you can build fundamentals like control, so I think it's a wonderful rubber.
