    Recommended for the player who aims to create heavy under spin against a variety of shots.
    Quite favorable results occur when using a combination racket with Anti-Spin or Long Pips rubber on one side.

    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as a stability-focused rubber for beginners in cutting, but opinions diverge on its limited attacking performance and low bounce unsuitable for drive-oriented players. The balance of affordable price and spin control is attractive, but intermediate and advanced players may find it underwhelming.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent control and stability due to low bounce
    • Defensive techniques like cuts and pushes are easy to learn
    • Excellent spin generation with sharp serves
    • Soft adhesive makes it beginner-friendly
    • Good quality at an affordable price
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositivePerfect for cut beginners. It helped me develop proper cutting form with excellent stability, making net errors easy to adjust. Counters work smoothly and I'm very satisfied.
    ▽ CriticalSeverely lacks bounce and power in driving attacks, unsuitable for modern cutting styles incorporating offensive play. Durability is relatively short.

      Old type of cut man (Experience: More than 20 years) Surprisingly bouncy

      I had Tackiness C on my backup blade, the Cutlass, but the lifespan and bounce weren't quite enough, so I tried the thick version instead.
      On my main blade, the Matsushita Koji, I have Tackifire Drive thick, but the Tackiness bounces more and puts more spin on the ball.
      Maybe it's a difference between the blades?
      The Tackifire is easier to use for knuckle chops though.

      For spin, if you pick the red one, it's no different from the Ansort — actually the Ansort is better now. I bought the red one. I'd recommend thick for the thickness, and black for the color.

      Kaolin Keeps on chopping

      Reviews by user

      If all you want to do is just keep chopping the ball back, I don't think anything beats this rubber. But it's also true that there's no real place for it to shine in modern table tennis. You can't win by just returning the ball forever, and this rubber isn't especially easy to vary either. It's for old-school choppers!

      It's a super soft beginner-oriented rubber lol
      That said, there aren't many pure retrieving choppers left these days (with almost no attacking), so this might actually be a rubber that shines for that style. It does have just enough bounce to put away an easy ball, of course lol.
      It's well suited for basic chopping and for a beginner's backhand. Even intermediate players who get too focused on attacking and end up neglecting their chops should use this. I bought it for practice and use it purely for training when I want to get my feel back. It's a rubber with really high specs, so don't write it off as an old-fashioned rubber — give it a try at least once.

      Rider drive (Experience: 4〜5 years) Tackiness Chop

      Reviews by user

      First off, this rubber has almost no bounce at all. Chops, serves, drives — it bites well on everything, but the disappointing lack of bounce makes speed-oriented shots really hard to pull off. I'd want choppers to pick this as their first rubber.

      Fukutaka Perfect for chopper-style beginners

      Reviews by user

      I relied on this rubber for a long time after becoming a chopper.
      It's a really good rubber for building solid chopping fundamentals from the ground up.
      It doesn't have much bounce and is soft, so it's easy to control, and the ball sinks into it quickly, making it a perfect rubber for learning the feel of holding the ball.
