    Honestly, it was disappointing.
    It's fast, but spin is hard to put on the ball (maybe because of the rubber?).

    The good points: the initial speed off the blade is fast (quick release, no real gripping sensation), but it doesn't fly far, so control is good. It's light (75g).
    The bad point, though this might come down to personal preference, is the feel. I'm not sure how to put it...
    On light hits, the carbon makes it feel hard, but on hard hits, it feels hollow, jars your hand, and feels soft. You end up getting pushed back by your opponent's shots.
    And then there's the weak spin, and how light the ball feels.

    I'd only recommend this for close-to-the-table, fast-attacking players who are quick on their feet and good at short game.

    First off, it basically doesn't bounce much on its own. But when you hit hard, both smashes and topspin drives come out sharp and fast with a low trajectory.
    For the short game, small techniques like stops and flicks work well.
    The amount of spin is plenty — enough that you can get service aces off it.
    I'm a Chinese-penhold user, so blocks are exceptionally easy for me, and the control is good enough to move my opponent around, which is great.
    That said, the backhand side was surprisingly hard to use. It slipped and dropped the ball fairly often.
    To sum up, there's plenty of spin, and since you can go fast or slow depending on how much force you put in, the control is good. I can also recommend it to penhold players whose weapon is the block.
    Considering the price, the performance is more than enough.

    I normally use inverted rubber, but I bought this before because I wanted a spin-oriented short pips. My first impression was that it just doesn't produce spin.
    Maybe because the sheet is on the harder side, there's no real grip feel, and I was dropping the ball all over the place even on ordinary forehand hits. I had to open the racket angle just to get the ball in at all — topspin drives were out of the question. As for everything else, it was true to short pips — quick ball release and decent speed. Part of it is probably my own skill level, but I get why it's popular among choppers. Unfortunately, it just didn't suit me.

    This is STIGA's newly released anti-spin rubber, so I bought it with half-hearted expectations. The topsheet is hard and slick. The sponge feels maybe a bit soft? The feel off the racket is hard, though. I tried it out right away — my opponent was an elementary schooler with weak spin, so that's a factor too, but of course every ball comes back reversed or knuckling. My opponent did make a few mistakes, but didn't seem to have much trouble with it overall. When I hit hard, the ball doesn't bounce, so there's no distance and no speed. On top of that, because it's hard, control was also difficult. So the only things I could really use it for were blocking and pushing. If at least the control were good I could see using it, but the control is bad too, and I couldn't find anything about it worth using. Maybe a chopper or someone who regularly plays with unusual rubbers would find more good points in it...? It has no real standout traits and felt no different from any old-school anti-spin rubber. Lastly, if you asked me for one good point, I'd say it's that the word "anti" isn't in the name. (Although the moment you hit with it, the sound and the way the ball behaves give it away as an anti rubber right away...)

    When it first came out, I won a sample and tried it. At first I wasn't used to it and my opponents seemed to struggle with it too, but after a while, once I got used to it, my opponents got used to it as well - it was easy for me to use, but apparently just as easy for them. The variation isn't anything amazing either, so in the end I got targeted and picked apart a lot. By the way, I'm not a chopper, so I don't use it for chopping - this is purely about attacking, blocking, and pushing.
    My takeaway: if it's easy for you to use, maybe it's just as easy for your opponent too.
