I switched to this rubber from Power Grip, so I'd like to compare the two.
First, the weight. Weight was actually the reason I switched, so I have no complaints there.
The feel of the ball seems a little lighter, but it's very easy to keep the ball in play, spin comes easily, and the spin stays consistent. In terms of maximum spin, Power Grip wins out across serves, drives, and chops. The arc on drives is lower with Grip, while the trajectory on chops and pushes is lower and more aggressive with Power Grip. My take is: Grip for consistency, Power Grip for aggressive play. Also, after I used rubber cleaner on it, the rubber got nice and shiny, but the grip weakened (sob).Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I switched to this from Tenergy 80. I'll review it while comparing it to the 80. First, about the sheet — Rozena's grip on the ball is clearly weaker. So serves feel a bit lacking, but overall it's soft, so it wraps around the ball and drives come out stable and decent enough. The speed also feels a bit lacking, but pushes and chops are both easy to do without the ball floating up. It falls short for an aggressive forehand, but I think it's a good rubber to use on the backhand or on a chopper's forehand. It's like "attacking Tenergy, stable Rozena," so to speak. If you're switching over from Tenergy like me, you'll probably feel it's "lacking," but I want to build up consistency with this rubber and then try Tenergy again. In the end, I ended up re-confirming just how good Tenergy is. But then Tenergy chips away quickly on pushes, and it's expensive too... though you do get to feel superior using it...

I'd heard it bounces like crazy, so I got the 0.5mm. It's true, for long pips it bounces really well and has good speed too. Chopping isn't really an issue, and the spin-reversal ability lives up to its reputation - I'm super happy with it. What I liked most was everything about attacking. The short game, the speed, all of it performs better than you'd expect from long pips. It's also easy to aim your shots, and I could handle the opponent's chops with a strong backhand from the back too, which really opened up my game. The push doesn't get much spin on it though. Just accept that and either go deep or go on the attack!

I wanted a rubber with real punching power, and ended up buying this on impulse. I got the power I was aiming for, but it ran wild on every single technique and I couldn't control it. I didn't have the energy to retrain every technique from scratch, so I reluctantly gave up on it (tears). But that's not the rubber's fault. The spin on serves and chops is fantastic, and chopping against hard hits is surprisingly easy and really bites!?
But pushes tend to float and drives tend to go long — it has quite strong quirks. Once you get used to it there's plenty of speed too, so if it suits you, I think it's a fantastic rubber. Lately I've been thinking that getting to the next level takes real skill to harness this power. Someday, maybe…Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I put this on just as an easy, back-to-basics kind of choice.
As expected, in this current era where tension rubbers dominate, it does feel like something's missing
but for some reason it gives me a real sense of reassurance and gentleness. No matter how much spin or how fast a shot gets thrown at me, I can chop it back stress-free and stay stable. My attacks are super stable too - this rubber taught me the joy of being a chopper, and I really love it. Very satisfied!
But... I probably won't use it in matches~
In 20 years, once I'm an old man, you'll be a great partner,
I bet (lol). Wait for me until then!Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
