  NEW ANTI SPIN

  

  Back when I wasn't good with my backhand side, I ended up buying this again and again.
  Unlike anti-spin rubbers, the sheet isn't smooth. Both the sheet and sponge are soft, and it's super light.
  The control is good, so it worked well while my backhand skills were still weak, but recently when I've used it, I've noticed that because it's so easy for me to use, it also gives less variation, which makes it easier for opponents to read too. The spin is half-hearted and the speed is slow, so the moment I switch to this rubber on my backhand, opponents start targeting it ^^; On the other hand, when I used it on the forehand, the control was good and opponents seemed to struggle with the low-spin drive!
  I'd recommend it for penhold players using short pips on the front, or Japanese-penhold players whose main weapon is the forehand and who only use the backhand occasionally, or anyone wanting to adjust their racket's weight.
  By the way, the thicker this rubber gets, the less it bounces, so keep that in mind when buying.

  裏面が下手な時、結構リピート買いしてました。
  アンチのようにシートは、ツルツルじゃないです。シートもスポンジも柔らかく、超軽いです。
  コントロールはいいので、裏面が下手なうちは良かったのですが、最近、使ってみると、自分が使いやすい分、変化も少なく、相手もやり易そうです。中途半端に、回転が掛かり、スピードも遅いので、裏面（このラバー）を使ったとたんに狙い撃ちされます＾＾；逆にフォア面で使ったら、コントロールも良く、回転の少ないドライブで相手がやりにくそうでした！
  オススメは、ペン粒表の方や、日本式ペンでフォアが主戦で裏面を時々使う方やラケット重量の調整したい方などです。
  ちなみに、このラバーは、厚さが増すほど、弾まなくなりますので、購入の際の参考になればと思います。

  MANTRA M

  

  Mantra S was good, so I tried Mantra M too. Compared to the S, the feel is a bit harder and the ball releases faster.
  The speed and spin are about the same. I found blocking harder with the M than with the S (harder to stop the opponent's power shots).
  That said, for the price, I think the Mantra series performs really well. I used a Houou blade this time, and it felt like even the blade's performance went up. Before, I was using Seifuku for control, and switching to this rubber did make control a bit harder, but combined with the Houou's quick ball release and the Mantra M's quick ball release, I got a pace almost like a short-pips rubber. In other words, I can play a versatile style of table tennis with good quick attacks, good drives, and a good feel — it's fun. I'd really recommend the Houou and Mantra M combination!

  マントラＳが良かったので、マントラＭも購入してみました。Ｓと比較すると、打球感は若干硬く、球離れが速く感じました。
  スピード、スピンもほぼ同じ位です。ＳよりＭの方がブロックが難しく感じました。（相手の強打を止めにくい）
  しかしながら、値段の割にマントラシリーズは性能が凄くいいと思います。今回、使用したラケットは鳳凰だったのですが、ラケットの性能さえも上がった気がします。前回は、コントロール重視で征服を使ってましたが、このラバーにしたら、コントロールこそ難しくなりましたが、鳳凰の球離れの良さと、マントラＭの球離れの良さが相まって、まるで表のようなピッチの速さを出来ました。つまり、速攻良し、ドライブ良し、打球感良しの万能な卓球が出来て楽しいです。鳳凰と、マントラＭの組み合わせは、オススメですね！

  Magic carbon

  

  There was a time before when I looked for a cheap, high-performance rubber, bought this, and used it for a while.
  Back then the spin was good enough to get service aces, and it felt like an easier-to-use version of Chinese rubber, so I liked it. But when I bought it again recently, whether it's a difference in quality or because of the 40+ ball, the spin was weak.
  It's cheap, but I can't really recommend it even for beginners.
  At this point, it's a rubber from the past.

  以前、安くて性能のいいラバーを探して購入し、使用していた時期がありました。
  その時は、サービスエースが取れるくらいスピンが良く、中国ラバーを使い易くしたイメージで、気に入っていたのですが、最近購入したら、品質の違いか、ボールが４０プラのせいか、回転が弱かったです。
  値段は安いですが、初心者向きにもオススメ出来ません。
  今となっては、昔のラバーです。

  Bluestorm Z1

  

  It's not as hard as I expected, so it's easy to use. The spin is amazing, and drives land consistently.
  Because of that, the control is great and it's easy to use. It handles everything from small touches to big shots!!
  Might also be thanks to my 5-ply wood blade though.

  思ったより硬くないので使いやすい。スピンが最高に良く、ドライブが安定して決まります。
  なので、コントロールが良く、使いやすい。小技～大技、なんでもこなします！！
  たぶん、五枚合板のラケットのお陰もあるかもしれません。

  Bluestorm Z2

  

  The good point is that you can use all kinds of techniques at a high level with it. The only downside is that it's affected by incoming spin.
  It was good enough that I found myself wondering, do you really need an expensive Tenergy? It might also just be a good match with a blade from the same maker.
  I bought a STIGA Mantra S at the same time and put it on the other side, so I compared the two.
  - The Z2 has more grip on the ball, more spin, and the trajectory arcs a bit more, which also makes it more controllable.
  - The Mantra S has the edge in absolute speed, but the Z2 feels like it keeps extending after it touches the ball.
  - For the short game and small technical shots, the Mantra flies more and is harder to handle, so the Z2 was easier there.
  - The Z2 is easy to use on both forehand and backhand, while the Mantra S is good on the forehand but hard to use on the backhand.
  - The Z2 suits spin-oriented drive players. The Mantra S might be more for flat hitters like smashers?
  Overall, for balance and ease of use, I personally give the edge to the Z2. That said, considering the price, the powerful hitting sound and speed, and spin on par with the Z2, the Mantra S is pretty good too. Depending on the player, the Mantra S might actually suit you better, in which case it could win out on value for money.

  良い点は、いろんな技術が、ハイレベルで使える所。悪い点は、唯一、回転の影響を受ける所くらいです。
  高価なテナジーって必要ある？ってくらい良いラバーでした。同メーカーのラケットの相性も良かったかもしれません。
  STIGAのマントラSを同時購入で裏面に貼ったので、打ち比べしてみました。
  ○Z2の方が、引っかかりがあり、スピンがかかるし、弾道もやや弧線を描き、その分コントロールもいい。
  ○絶対的スピードは、マントラSだが、Z2は、着いてから伸びてる感じ。
  ○台上や小技は、マントラが飛ぶ分、難しく、Z2の方がやり易かった。
  ○Z2は、フォア・バックどちらでも使い易く、マントラSは、フォアはいいが、バックは難しかった。
  ○Z2は回転系のドライブマン向き。マントラSはスマッシュなど、フラット打ち系かな？
  総評では、バランスや、使い易さで、個人的には、Z2に軍配。しかしながら、安さと、圧倒的な打球音とスピード、Z2と同程度のスピンでは、マントラSもなかなか良い。使い手によっては、マントラSの方が良い場合もあると思うので、その場合は、コスパでマントラSに軍配になるかもしれません。
