  Current high school student (Experience: ２〜３ years) Personally, better than Tenergy

  

  I tried both the plain version (Normal Monkey) and the Spin version, using them for about six months inside a Harimoto blade. I actually entered one tournament with it.
  With the plain version, my impression was that you need good swing speed and power to loop against backspin. Other than that, forehand and backhand short-game shots and counters were never a problem! The Spin version is extremely easy to control, and I never felt like my shots were losing out in power. Even against backspin, it naturally lifts the ball up without needing a lot of swing speed or power, so it's really effortless! That makes things like the chiquita really easy to pull off. With the Spin version, counters in particular are easy - you get good distance whether you're up close or backed off the table, so counters come easily!
  I'm going to stick with the Spin version on both sides going forward, and I want to do well again this year at nationals and the Hokushinetsu tournament~! Rallys is the best

  無印(ノーマルモンキー)と、スピン両方お試しで張本インナーで半年ぐらい試打しました。大会も実際にこれで1回出ました。
  無印はスイングスピードやパワーのある方じゃないと、下回転打ちが難しい印象でした。あとのF、Bの台場やカウンターなどやりにくいことは無かったです！スピンはものすごくコントロールがしやすく、球負けすることは感じませんでした。下回転打ちもスイングスピードやパワーが無くても自然と上に上がってくれるので、すごく楽です！なのでチキータなんかはすごくやりやすいです。スピンは特にカウンターがやりやすく前、後ろからでも飛距離が出てカウンターがしやすいです！
  お年玉で両面スピンで固定していき、今年も全国、北信越でいい結果を残せるよう頑張りたいです〜！Rallysさん最高

  Hiroshi Nohara V CHEN (Experience: １１〜２０ years)

  

  I heard it was similar to Tenergy 05, so I gave it a try.
  Conclusion: the feel is like Tenergy 05 and Rozena averaged together.
  It doesn't die out as fast as Tenergy does.

  テナジー05と似てると聞いて貼ってみた。
  結論、テナジー05とロゼナを足して2で割ったような打球感。
  寿命はテナジーほど早く逝かない。

  wild boar (Experience: ４〜５ years) The best rubber

  

  The sheet is weaker than Tenergy, but because of that it's less affected by the opponent's spin, making blocks, counters, and receives easier. On top of that, if you loop it yourself it grips the ball firmly, so you get good spin and a nice arc too — a great rubber. It bounces a bit more than average among medium-hardness rubbers, but I think this level is fine at least for the forehand up to intermediate level. Thanks to it, I was able to win a local tournament.

  Here's a quick comparison with rubbers from other brands.
  vs Tenergy 05FX
  The "Red Monkey" sheet is weaker, but its bounce and speed drives are easier to unleash, and receiving might be too.
  It's easy to use without that "auto" feel you get from the Tenergy-type sheets.
  vs Dignics 09c
  The spin and speed on speed drives are lower, but receiving with a drive was overwhelmingly easier with the Red Monkey. For a single fixed course, 09c was clearly superior in every way — spin, speed, arc depth — but it was hard to use while moving, so in that respect the Red Monkey is easier to use.

  テナジーよりシートが弱いがその分相手の回転の影響を受けににくく、ブロックやカウンター、レシーブがやりやすい。その上で自分からループすればしっかり掴むので回転もかかり、弧線も描いてくれる良ラバー。中間硬度のラバーでは弾みやすい方ではあるが、中級者までは少なくともフォアはこのくらいでいいのでは、おかげさまで市民大会優勝できました。

  他社品と簡単な比較を記載します。
  vsテナジー05FX
  シートは赤猿のが弱いが弾みやスピードドライブが赤猿流しやすい、レシーブもかな。
  いわゆるテナジー系の様なシートのオート感が無く使いやすい。
  vsディグニクス09c
  スピードドライブの回転量やスピードは落ちるが、レシーブのドライブが圧倒的に赤猿のがしやすかった。ワンコースの質は圧倒的に09Cのが回転スピード弧線深さ全て上だったが、動いて打つのは難しかったので、その点赤猿は使いやすい。

  Rallys believers (Experience: Less than a year) Its value I noticed after improving a bit

  

  This is a repost. Some time has passed since my last post and I guess I've gotten a bit better myself, so let me write about the good points. Speed drives are easy to hit. Combined with the good control, you can hit deep, nasty courses. Flat hits are easy too. I don't think you get much spin if you catch the ball thinly. If you sink it into the rubber and hit, it spins quite a lot. Occasionally clipping the edge is just something you have to live with. I do feel it's not quite worth the price. I'm planning to switch to Glayzer soon, but if I find that difficult, I think I'll end up coming back to this rubber.

  再投稿です。前の投稿から少し経って僕自身もうまくなってきたのかな？ので良かったところを書きます。スピードドライブが打ちやすいですね。コントロールの良さも相まって深くえげつないコースを突けます。ミートもやりやすいです。薄くとらえてもあまり回転は掛からないと思います。ラバーに食い込ませて打つとかなり掛かります。たまにチップするのは仕方ないことです。値段に見合ってないとは感じます。もう少ししたらグレイザーに変えるのですが、難しいなと感じたらやっぱりこのラバーに戻ってきちゃうと思います。

  Rallys believers (Experience: Less than a year) A star-student rubber that can do it all

  

  Used on my forehand. I haven't used a ton of different rubbers so I can't say for sure, but I think it drives consistently. Easy to loop too. The hardness feels like a manageable level.
  Serves spin well too. But sometimes the spin drops off, and if you don't consciously put spin on it, it doesn't spin much. (Might just be my own skill level though.)
  I've been practicing about 4 hours a day, 5 days a week for the past 3 months, and it still produces plenty of spin and speed.
  I felt this isn't a rubber where the spin happens automatically — you need to consciously put spin on the ball to bring out its full performance. But because of that, I think it's good for beginners looking to step up, and advanced players would be satisfied with it too. And with this level of performance for 3,980 yen, the value for money is way too good. It's fine to stretch your budget for an expensive rubber, but I think it's worth trying this one at least once.
  Sorry for the long post.

  フォアに使用。まだあまりラバーをたくさん使っていないのでどうなのかは分かりませんが、ドライブは安定して出せると思います。ループもかけやすい。硬度も扱いやすい硬さだと思います。
  サーブも切れます。でも、落ちるときがあり、かける意識を持たないとあまり切れません。(私の技量のせいかもしれませんが)
  3ヶ月前から週5で4時間ずつくらい練習をしていますが、まだまだ回転もスピードも出ます。
  オートで回転がかかるラバーというよりは回転をかける意識を持たないと性能が出し切れないラバーだと思いました。しかし、それゆえに初級者のステップアップにも役立つし、上級者が使っても満足できるラバーだと思います。しかもこの性能で3980円。コスパ良すぎです。背伸びして高いラバーを買うのもいいですが、1度はこのラバーを使ってみるのもいいのではと思います。
  長文失礼しました。

  Guillotine Table Tennis Club (Experience: ２〜３ years) Easy to drive

  

  For how cheap it is, it's easy to drive with, and when you loop it puts insane spin on the ball. Serves also spin really well, and counters and blocks are surprisingly stable too, so I'm glad I bought it.

  安い割にはドライブがしやすいし、ループをするとえげつない回転がかかります。サーブもよく切れるし、カウンターやブロックも意外と安定するので買ってよかったなと思いました。

  An old man who loves downward rotation (Experience: More than ２０ years) Easy-to-use control rubber

  

  This is a review as a chopper.
  I've been using Tenergy 05FX, but the ball sinks into the sponge too much, so I was looking for a rubber that's a bit weaker in the sheet but still selfishly grips the ball firmly when I want spin.
  Since it had good reviews, I tried this product, and I finally found a versatile rubber that satisfies all my demands.

  Tenergy wins in terms of spin on chops, but how often do you actually use heavy-spin chops a lot? I think it's more important that your chops go in consistently, so I've decided to keep using this one.

  It bounces a decent amount depending on the blade, so it might be tough unless you're a chopper who can comfortably keep forehand/backhand chops going for 50+ balls.
  It's soft and easy to control, so this is a rubber that teaches you control not just for chopping but for long balls too.
  You won't regret buying it.

  カットマンとしてのレビューです。
  いままでテナジー05FXを使用しておりましたが、食い込みが良すぎるのでもうすこしシートが弱めだけど回転を掛ける時はしかりと食い込む我儘な要望を叶えてくれるラバーをさがしていました。
  評判がよかったので本製品を試したところ、やっとすべてを叶えてくれる懐の広いラバーに出会えました。

  カットの回転量はテナジーに軍配があがりますが、回転量の多いカットを多用できるシーンってそんなある？それよりもカットが安定して入ることが大事じゃない？と思ったので継続利用決定です。

  ラケットによりますがある程度弾むのでフォア・バックカットが50球以上余裕で続くカットマンでないと難しいかもしれません。
  柔らかくコントロールしやすいのでこれでカットだけに限らずロングボールなどのコントロールを学べる1枚になります。
  買って損は無いです。
