    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Despite its 52.5-degree hardness, this rubber is praised for its excellent sheet grip that belies its stiffness, earning wide support from beginners to advanced players. Its versatility across various techniques and well-balanced performance in power, spin, and control are highly valued, though weight and short durability are noted concerns.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Grips surprisingly well despite 52.5-degree hardness
    • Excels across diverse techniques like counters and chiquita
    • Well-balanced performance in power, spin, and control
    • Affordable pricing for a German rubber option
    • Drawbacks include significant weight and shorter durability
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveLight hits benefit from sheet gripping for precise control, while hard hits leverage sponge hardness for power. Spin applies easily across all techniques with excellent meritorious performance.
    ▽ CriticalThe thicker sponge adds substantial weight, increasing racket weight by approximately 5g compared to alternatives. Durability is relatively short at around 3 months with 1-2 weekly practice sessions.

      Feel on the forehand
      - There's a real sense of security that if you swing, the ball will go in. On top of that, the ball feels like it has some extra pace.
      - The arc is on the low side, but it still clears the net comfortably and lands on the table.
      - Hitting into the ball works better than just grazing the surface.
      - Especially against backspin, if you can hit into it and swing forward, you get a really good ball.
      - For loop drives too, it feels like it grips better if you let the ball sink in a bit rather than just brushing the surface.

      Downsides
      - While the rubber is still new it feels a bit hard, so if you don't wait properly before hitting, the ball can drop into the net.

      Feel on the backhand
      - If you wait and load up properly before hitting, you get a good ball.
      - The meet-hit itself is very stable, but since the ball stays on the rubber longer, it doesn't have much extra pace.
      - Blocks stop really well. It's not affected much by the opponent's spin, so handling loops over the table is stress-free.
      - Maybe because it holds the ball, flicks are very easy to do. Even quick flicks go in consistently.
      - Against backspin, hitting into it works better, same as the forehand. Looping it was difficult.

      Bonus: I felt it pairs really well with CNF material.

      The bounce isn't crazy strong, but the spin and speed are both plenty, and it's easy to control.
      The sheet is thin so you don't feel the hardness that much, but the sponge is definitely hard, so if you don't hit through the ball properly you'll end up with flat, spinless shots.
      Against backspin, both loops and speed drives are easy to do.
      A good rubber that can do it all.

      It's hard, so if you can swing through it properly, you get good shots. Control, spin, and speed are all excellent. A great rubber.

      The feel is hard, but hitting against backspin is really easy. Techniques over the table like pushes, stops, flicks, and chiquita were especially easy. Countering is really easy too, thanks to the sheet's just-right lack of sensitivity. I'd recommend it to people who want a hard rubber for their backhand that doesn't miss easily, or to people who follow up a push with a drive. It also works on a chopper's forehand. Koji Matsushita reportedly uses it on his forehand.

      I'm using the 2.0 on my backhand. It really does feel softer than the stated 52.5 degrees — maybe around 48 by feel.
      The feel is similar to Tenergy 05, but it's not an "automatic" rubber — it assumes you're actually swinging through the ball. It grips the ball more than Tenergy at contact. When it grips, you really do feel the "play" and "tolerance" they advertise. Even if your timing is a bit off, the "play" gives you extra time to grip the ball. And even if the ball still has spin on it, the "tolerance" seems to cancel that out.
      To repeat myself, impact matters a lot. Grazing the ball still goes in, but it doesn't produce great shots (though that might just be my lack of skill...).
      The short game is quite easy, and the chiquita is excellent.
      I'd recommend this to intermediate players and above who hit with strong impact.

      Log cultivation A completely different feel from any rubber before Verified Purchase

      Reviews by user

      I used this on the forehand of a Japanese-style penhold blade. Because the sponge is hard, the sound at contact is quite high-pitched, but the feel is actually very soft, and it's easy to use for drives, smashes, short game, and over-the-table play. Compared to the V>15stiff I used before, it's heavier, so the only downside is that you need a lighter rubber on the back side. Once you get used to it, though, it seems like it'll turn into a really fun rubber, and I'm excited about it. Delivery took a while, but I'm grateful that Takkyu Navi got it to me earlier than scheduled.

      Front-end haste (Experience: 4〜5 years) A firm, spin-oriented tension rubber!

      Reviews by user

      For a spin-oriented tension rubber, it's hard, and it was difficult to really sink the ball into it. With my usual grazing swing, I didn't get much spin.
      On the other hand, smashes and drives come out really fast and land consistently deep on the opponent's side. I figure this must be the "tolerance" VICTAS talks about.
      My final conclusion is that this is only for advanced players who can really sink the ball into a hard rubber. But if you can handle it, it transforms completely.
      Sorry for the long post.
