    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    This rubber is highly praised for its soft feel and excellent control performance, with good reviews for defensive techniques such as blocking and pushing. However, with a hardness of 42, the spin capacity is limited, making it more suitable for players who prioritize stability over aggressive play.

    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe sponge performance is excellent, and when you compress and swing, you can produce fast balls. Especially good for blocks, pushes, and backspin attacks, and provides great confidence because the ball always goes in.
    ▽ CriticalWith hardness 42, spin capacity is limited and it is prone to being countered. Not suitable for players who aim to score with heavy topspin drives.

      Pen table cat (Experience: ６〜１０ years) Light! Fast! And it just lands in! Verified Purchase

      Reviews by user

      Used on the back side of a Chinese penhold with an outer carbon blade

      It's rated hardness 42, but the sponge performs so well that if you swing and let the ball sink in, it comes out quite fast.
      It's light, so it's convenient for adjusting overall weight.
      It's especially easy to use for blocks, pushes, and hitting against backspin.

      It just goes in, so it gives you a real sense of security. STIGA is the best!

      Reviews by user

      Honestly, I couldn't find much difference from Mantra S.
      The sound is about the same too.
      It bounces well with a light touch and grips the ball nicely, but the amount of spin isn't all that strong.
      Meet-style shots are easy to pull off, and you can smash even a slightly spinny high ball.
      Since it's also light in weight, I'd say it's a great fit for the backside of a penhold blade.
      It's not suited for players who want to score with heavy topspin drive spin.

      It's quite soft, and just like the name of the rubber suggests, it makes a nice sound too, giving you the pleasant illusion that you've suddenly gotten better.
      I originally switched to this from short pips on my backhand. Hitting against backspin, the ball sinks in easily and lands on the table, and counters also go in easily with that same short-pips-like snap. Blocking is also easy, and maybe because the ball comes off in a slightly unusual way, my impression is that opponents whiff on it a lot.
      That said, since the hardness is rated 42, the spin isn't all that strong, so it's easy for opponents to counter.
      My main weapon is my forehand, and on the backhand my top priority is not making mistakes, so this rubber is perfect because it lets a reasonably placed ball land on the table easily.
      If you want to go for aggressive winners on your backhand, I think you'll find this rubber quite lacking.
