Gengar (Experience: ６〜１０ years) A rubber like Rasanter Verified Purchase

I put the 1.9mm on the forehand of an Innerforce Layer. Weight came to 49.2g.
First, the trajectory is flat. Loops still get solid spin. It felt close to Rasanter R48.
On paper the hardness only differs by 0.5 degrees from Rasanter R48, but the ball sinks in more easily than with R48, so I could produce good shots effortlessly.
I think this is an all-around rubber that works well on either the forehand or backhand.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
Racket recommended use Innerforce Layer ALC

I've used Xiom rubbers for a long time. I've gone from Omega 4 Elite, to Omega 7 Euro, and now to Jekyll & Hyde V47.5. Up to now I'd only ever used soft rubbers, but the ball went in smoothly without me having to change my swing, so I don't feel like the higher hardness made much difference. That said, the grip on the ball seems really good, and the speed is very fast, so I think I've been overhitting more. Also, since the ball comes off quickly, I found it a rubber that's harder to put spin on. Because it's harder to spin, the ball comes out more honest, without as much of the quirkiness the Omega had. But while it lacks that quirk, it also means I can hit comfortably myself, so I felt it's a really well-balanced rubber.

Topspin drive: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Push: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Serve: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Flick: ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆There's no one single standout feature, but true to its name, the grip on the ball is really good. I bought it because of the 47.5 hardness rating, and the topsheet is actually firmer than VEGA ASIA, which is also 47.5. So overall it feels like a firm sheet over a softer sponge. Countering performance is outstanding. The playing quirk is pretty strong, so I think it'll split people into those who click with it and those who don't. If your racket face opens up on contact, the ball doesn't fly well. So it might not suit power hitters who want to blast through the ball in one shot. On the other hand, a soft, glancing drive without much impact tends to drop oddly, so adjusting for that is tricky. I'd recommend it for people who want moderate speed and spin, who want to hit clean drives, or who absolutely want the ball to go in. Aside from that, there's the price and how long it lasts, I guess...

I put it on a Mace Advance. With the side tape still on, it just flies off the table. After peeling off the side tape, it became just barely usable. Driving against backspin is tough. It's a pretty odd rubber, honestly. But the part you hold with your hand that has the maker's logo printed on it looks cool, and the packaging is cool too.

(Experience: ６〜１０ years) Unique for its spin and wobbly shots

I used the 2.1mm. After cutting it down, it averages around 50g, so it's on the heavier side.
This rubber's strength is combining the kind of short-game control you'd expect from a harder rubber with the ball-sinking feel and stability of a softer one.
The sheet itself is quite hard, but since the sponge has large, soft cells, it seems to pull off this dual character.
It also has some standout qualities in spin and unpredictable balls — loop shots curve and dip with a fierce trajectory that sticks into the opponent's court.
Speed-oriented shots come out as heavy, wobbly balls, so they're harder to return than they look from the sidelines.
Hitting against backspin has a bit of a quirk to it. If you try to hit it as a speed shot, the trajectory becomes quite straight, which can make for some tough situations.Overall, the thing that really stands out is how little distance it produces.
For a matching blade, I'd recommend either a bouncy inner-composite blade or an outer-composite one.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I used it mounted on a Viscaria.
It's a rubber that's stable for better or worse, I'd say.
Honestly I expected more grip than it actually has. To get an arc, you basically have to hit it slow with a lot of spin — there's no other way.
It's especially hard to put spin on when hitting a knuckle (no-spin) ball. That said, there's no technique that's particularly hard to pull off overall, and the speed is more than enough, so I think it's a good rubber.
Countering is easy.
I can't recommend it for people who want to do chiquita-into-drive combos, but I'd recommend it for anyone who wants both ball speed and stability.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Chaco-chan Man (Experience: ６〜１０ years) The topsheet has huge potential!

With a moderate bounce and a moderate "auto" feel, the speed is very easy to control.
I never felt like the speed or distance was lacking.
When it comes to spin, the feeling of really cranking spin onto the ball when you catch it is incredible. Against topspin, even if you lay the racket face down quite a bit, as long as your swing is accurate, I never felt like the ball would drop unless the impact was way too strong.
Also, I think the trajectory of this rubber is basically a bit on the straight side.
That said, except when you swing upward to create an arc, it's a strange rubber where the trajectory stays fairly straight while still getting strong spin.
Personally, because the trajectory leans slightly straight, it's very easy for me to control the trajectory with my own swing, which I really like.
Overall, I think the way to bring out this rubber's potential is a stroke that uses the sheet to the fullest.
If you swing in a way that sinks the ball deep into the whole rubber and bangs into it rather than using the sheet, I don't think this rubber's strengths come through as much.
Also, the sheet is on the harder side, so I think it feels harder than other rubbers in the same hardness range. If that downside doesn't bother you, this is the best rubber there is.
The V52.5 was too hard for me and I gave up on it, but after trying the V47.5, my forehand can't be anything but this rubber anymore.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
