    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    The harder sponge compared to the standard version has improved speed and stability, earning high marks from penhold and forehand users. It is recognized as a balanced short-pimple rubber that compensates for the weaknesses of the original Symmetry with its excellent ball retention and spin despite its vertical pimple pattern.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Significantly improved stability with harder sponge than standard

    • Easy to produce spin variations like knuckle and sidespin
    • Block remains firm and resists strong opponent shots
    • Outstanding cost performance in this price range
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe harder composition makes smashes and flat hits much easier to stabilize. Highly recommended for those who found the standard version insufficient.
    ▽ CriticalThe excellent ball retention can make it difficult to drop short shots, requiring more control and causing occasional challenges in shot placement.

      TO (Experience:11〜20 years) Modestly good

      Vertical rotation type. I used to use the normal version, but although the block was good, it didn't fly, so I switched to the Impartial XS. However, this hard version solves the problem of the normal version not flying and the block being pushed. The block stops well, doesn't fall even when hit, and has a decent amount of power. I use the pen table, but I think it's a good rubber because it can be used to achieve both a nasty block and a stable forehand.

      Pen Meat (Experience:6〜10 years) The ease of use of the original is intact, while increasing attack power and variation.

      The grain shape is a low trapezoid and the grain arrangement is vertical, making this a hybrid top rubber.
      It has the best of both worlds in terms of performance.
      The original rubber had good control but lacked change and speed, but with the harder rubber you can now produce some pretty brutal knuckles.
      When blocking an opponent's loop, the knuckle becomes strong enough to be pushed, and you can block speed drives and smashes without being bounced off.
      However, when pushing or driving, there is no slippage and you can apply a lot of spin.
      If you make a good hit, you can get a lot of speed, so you have plenty of power to decide.
      It stops well when defending, and it's easy to make changes such as knuckles and side spin, and it has speed when attacking, so there's nothing to complain about.
      It's good for backhand tops because it changes a lot, but it's also stable and fast, so I recommend it for pen tops and forehand tops as well.
