    User review

    I'm an amateur chopper. Ever since the switch to plastic balls, my pushes off the long pips on my backhand haven't been biting at all. Short pips like a knuckle type would still bite, but the chop itself just doesn't have any bite to it. I went through a lot of trial and error with equipment, but once I switched to this rubber, I gained two new weapons.
    First, the push. When I try to cut it, sometimes it bites, sometimes it doesn't... honestly, I can't really control how much spin I put on it. But it still lands on the table. On top of that, by flipping the racket and mixing in pushes off the inverted side, I've forced even more mistakes out of opponents.
    The other one is blocking. When I go to stop an opponent's attack up close, it produces this weird ball I can't quite describe. With long pips, opponents can just push it back, but with this rubber the return floats up. That leads to them going long or giving me a chance ball.
    It's harder to keep the ball low than with pure long pips, but in my case, my chops come down somewhat high but deep, which makes it easier to get ready for the next ball. It's not as easy to hit with as short pips, but you can still hit; it's not as easy to push through with as long pips, but you can still push through.
    Lately, my main game has really just been self-satisfying topspin drives, but since switching to Attack8, I've been able to score points about as well as I do with my main style. This is a rubber that lets you fully enjoy being a chopper!

    User review

    I tried this for backhand chopping. Chops against topspin drives bite in just as well as with long pips! And naturally, it's easier to get a flatter, more straight-line trajectory on your chops than with long pips. Pushes are easy to put backspin on too. I was thinking, "where's the 'no-knuckle' in this?!" — but when I blocked a drive close to the table, it did come out as a no-spin knuckle ball.
    It was an appealing short pips rubber unlike anything I'd tried before. If you're a chopper using long pips and thinking "I want a bit more speed on my chops," I think it's worth trying.

    The feel of the Liberta series is really amazing! The sweet spot is wide, and it has this smooth quality like the blade itself has sponge built in, which sets it apart from the hard, dead-feeling chop blades. Even so, it still gives a solid feedback sensation in the hand. Chops are easy to control for distance, and pushes get spin on them just by touching the ball. It's also easy to attack with, though it feels more suited to topspin drives than to hitting. It seems to pair better with tension rubbers than with hard or tacky rubbers.
    Demand must be low, since it took about 2 months from ordering at the shop to actually getting it. I think this racket deserves to become more popular.

    First, my impression using it for chopping. Long chops against topspin drives really bite well. The chops feel great going in, but they're so fast that it was hard to get ready for the next chop. Also, the push doesn't bite at all. It's tricky to handle!
    And then my impression with a Chinese penhold blade. Attacking feels great! Both brushing shots and flicking shots were fun to hit. But blocking is difficult!
    In conclusion, this seems like a rubber for advanced players. I feel like if you attack aggressively with this rubber, you could become quite an interesting player.

    I have the thin (US) sponge on a Kokutaku Chinese-penhold blade. It exceeds what I'd heard about it — it's a rubber that makes it very easy to put spin on drives and pushes. The ball leaves the racket quickly, yet it still feels like it's held onto for a moment. If you go with a thicker sponge, you'd probably feel that holding sensation even more. On top of that, you can easily produce knuckle-ball blocks. It's a genius of a rubber.
    The thick version is probably for advanced players, but with a thin sponge, I think it's a rubber I'd want beginners to use too.
