I really care about the feel of the ball, so this review reflects that,
but the feel is very soft and pleasant.
Since it's an inner-carbon blade, when you hit normally you get the feel of the wood surface,
but when you hit hard, it switches to that carbon feel. It's got that crisp "clack!" snap to it.I think this suits players who like to grab and hold the ball more than players who want to blast it away with hard rebound from every rally.
It's also a bit on the light side, so the follow-through feels great.
That said, even though it's light, you don't really feel the carbon's rebound unless you hit hard,
so if a woman or a child is using it, it might be better suited to someone who can hit with real power.For these reasons, moving over from a 5-ply wood blade should feel natural,
but I wouldn't recommend it if you're switching over "looking for carbon rebound."Since the blade itself has this kind of feel, I think pretty much any rubber will work with it.
If you want to fly the ball, go with a high-rebound rubber or max thickness; if you want to grab and control the ball, I'd go with thick or thinner.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

Compared to the higher-end rubbers (around 5000 yen), the bounce especially falls a bit short, but I think the spin performance is about the same. It probably won't suit people who like trading hard, bouncy shots or who think table tennis is all about speed. But if you want to put solid spin on the ball and prefer connecting with loop-type drives rather than power drives, I think this suits you well. That said, since the bounce is on the weaker side, meaning it's harder to generate speed, if you want to play aggressively you'll need to be someone who can drive the ball with your own power. By the way, I have it on my backhand. I feel like it might be a bit lacking in attacking power for the forehand.

Spin, speed, and playability over the table all come together at a high level. If I had to say something negative, it's that it doesn't have a standout specialty, but with so many "characterful" rubbers being released these days, I actually think that's a big strength of its own.
I think it's a great rubber for players who want to attack with a variety of techniques — smashes, plenty of loop drives, stops, chiquitas. Among all that, it felt to me more like a spin-oriented rubber than a speed-oriented one. Put another way, if you just want to blast through with pure speed, this might feel a bit soft for you.
That said, it's still a tension rubber, so it's not like it lacks bounce — it has plenty of speed too. Lastly, here's a quick subjective comparison with G1 for reference.
Speed: G1 ≥ Super Ventus
Ease of putting on spin: G1 < Super Ventus
Amount of spin: G1 ≈ Super Ventus
Control: G1 < Super Ventus
Hardness of feel: G1 > Super Ventus
Ease of the short game: G1 ≤ Super VentusOverall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I'd say this is one of the more manageable rubbers among the speed-oriented short pips.
This was my first short pips rubber after switching from inverted, and yeah, it definitely felt strange at first. But when I focused on returning backhand blocks just over the net, the pips are quite firm so the ball comes off fast right away, and my opponents seemed to have a hard time returning it. Since it's short pips, it's also less affected by the opponent's spin than inverted rubber, so I'd really recommend it to players who like to play close to the table and finish points quickly.
That said, for topspin drives and pushes, there's a big technical element involved, so I wouldn't say it's easier than inverted rubber in that respect.

Just like the rumors say, this is an easy-to-use rubber.
Both the bounce and how easily it takes spin are excellent.
If you want to hit hard and fast, pair it with a hard blade like a carbon one.
If you want to put spin on carefully, pair it with a softer blade like an all-wood one,
and I think it'll work well either way.The one issue, though not as much as Tenergy, is that it's a bit pricey.
Especially for students, it might be worth only putting it on the week before an important tournament.
