This rubber is very well balanced, and each aspect of its performance is at a high level.
First, drives tend to go long if you grip the ball too much, but once you get the control down, you can hit really high-quality, powerful shots. It's also not easily affected by the opponent's spin, so you won't lose out in topspin rallies or counters. Smashes have good speed and are very easy to hit. It can bounce a bit too much in the short game, though chiquitas and flicks are easy to do. Serves get plenty of spin. However, it's hard to make stops with it.
Overall it's well balanced and works on both forehand and backhand. That said, it's hard to sink the ball into the sponge, so you need power. I'd recommend it to all-round players who can do everything, drive players who push forward with power, and even choppers, since it's not easily affected by spin. It pairs well with inner-carbon or all-wood blades.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Since a new product came out, here's my impression from trying it.
First of all, it was incredibly easy to use. I normally use G-1 and C-1, and this feels like a softer, easier-to-use version of C-1. The sheet's grip felt a bit less than C-1, but it still grips the ball well and spin was very easy to generate. So I think it's ideal for learning the feel of a topspin drive. That said, it doesn't spin as much as C-1 or G-1 - it's really meant as a stepping stone toward those rubbers. Also, being soft, it produces good speed. The smash speed was amazing. The short game was also easy to play. And the control on every technique was impressively easy.
I think this rubber is ideal for a new player's second sheet. Even a weak impact generates solid spin, and it's easy to learn the feel of putting spin on the ball. However, the ball doesn't sit on it as long as C-1 or G-1, so without guidance to really let the ball sink in before hitting, it might turn into flat, poke-and-hope table tennis. I'd also recommend it on the backhand for players who struggle there.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I recently switched my backhand from TSP Ventus Spin to this.
It's truly a can't-complain, all-around rubber. I can now vary the spin more on my short game too. Even when I just block, the ball goes in solidly. The grip on the ball is great, so it's easy to generate spin and it really bites. My topspin rallies are more stable, and best of all, lifting up against backspin is easy. I'm not that great at backhand drives, but with this rubber I can lift the ball even mid-rally, which lets me take the advantage in rallies. It also has more bounce than Ventus Spin, so playing mid-distance from the table got easier too.
I can recommend this rubber to anyone.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

A friend from my club switched to this, so I borrowed it and gave it a test hit.
First off, the drive has incredible stability. It comes off the rubber like a speed-type rubber with a low trajectory, but it still lands reliably on the table. The power doesn't quite match G-1, but the stability is a step above. Over the table it doesn't bounce too much, so you can control it well and play with confidence. Cutting a push short or brushing a flick are both easy too. For serves, it was easier to put spin on if you contacted the ball more directly. Smashes are affected a bit by the opponent's spin, but if you make solid contact, you can hit a sharp shot. Also, since the sheet is soft, it's easy to get distance, so mid-distance play works well too. It's a rubber that really lives up to Nittaku's concept.
This rubber is a bit soft with moderate bounce, so I'd recommend it to intermediate players who want to stabilize their forehand or backhand, or to anyone looking to move from speed-oriented rubbers to spin-oriented ones.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

This time I switched from inverted on both sides to short pips on my backhand, and I put this rubber on — the amount of spin I could get was unbelievable for short pips‼
This rubber makes it easy to control your spin, and easy to produce knuckle balls too. On topspin drives the spin doesn't quite match inverted rubber, but it comes close. It gets more stable when you let the ball sink into the sponge. You can also block-hit it flat and get good knuckle balls. Because the ball holds well on the sponge, you'll feel a bit of the opponent's spin unless you hit through it firmly. Pushes can slip if you don't make solid contact, but if you do make solid contact, you get a really vicious backspin. Stops and blocks were also easy to control, and it was easy to manage spin overall.
This rubber holds the ball well and lets you use almost the same strokes as inverted rubber, so I'd recommend it to people like me switching from inverted to short pips. It might be a bit too "inverted-like" to suit forehand pips, but the amount of drive spin is amazing. For choppers it flies a bit too much, so it's a mixed bag.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
