I used this on my backhand back when I was an inverted-rubber-on-both-sides drive-dominant player.
I had expectations for it as a rubber built for the plastic ball, but in the end the feel just didn't work for me.I originally preferred a soft rubber on my backhand, and this one was indeed soft, but it had a distinct "boingy" feel to it.
My swing isn't super fast, and I tend to hit flat, so with my style it felt like the power wasn't fully transferring into the ball.I did like how the sheet gripped the ball though — serves, pushes, and lightly-spun drives were all easy to do.

On stops and pushes it doesn't bounce much, but on hard hits it bounces back nicely -
it's an excellent blade that's made of special materials yet still lets you put solid spin on the ball.It's extremely well balanced, so it suits all kinds of rubbers, and the feel changes depending on which rubber you pair it with,
so I think it's a blade that intermediate to advanced players of all kinds can keep using for a long time.
Put another way, you could say it doesn't have much of a distinct quirk or character,
but a blade this capable, with such high performance across the board, should satisfy a lot of people.I had a friend who's used a 5-ply wood blade for 10 years try it, and he said it felt close to the feel of wood.

I used this for about two years back in high school when I was a drive-oriented player.
First off, it's black! It looks so cool! (I'll admit about 70% of why I used it back then was just this.)
The top layer peels easily, so applying something like racket coating is a must.The feel is a bit on the hard side.
The speed isn't that high, it's pretty middle-of-the-road.
It holds the ball well and it's easy to put spin on, so drives are really easy to pull off.
The short game was flawless too.I think it works well across a wide range, from intermediate players up to advanced players who play close to mid-distance and prioritize stable drives.
As for rubber pairings, the forehand in particular matches very well with spin-oriented tension rubbers or Chinese tacky rubbers, and I felt the two brought out the best in each other.
I also tried it briefly with short pips, but I felt that combination wasn't very good.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

Same blade as the SK7, just a different grip.
Back in high school there was a period when I was really into mid-distance topspin rallies, so I used this for about six months.
I have two of them, and both were around 100g - insanely heavy.
The blade itself is pretty stiff, so I paired it with a softer tension rubber, but it was still heavy,
so in the end I sanded down the blade myself to use it.It's true that it delivers good power when you're driving from mid-distance,
but personally I found it hard to use for close-to-the-table play, especially the short game.Because it's heavy and has a thick grip, I can't recommend it for junior high students.
I think you'd need to be a high schooler or older, with the strength for mid-distance driving, or the racket will end up controlling you.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

Been using it for just under a month and a half since release.
I switched over from a non-Tenergy rubber, so the spring sponge's distinctive grab-and-launch feel really threw me off at first — it took over a week to get used to it, but once I did, it turned out to be a really good rubber.I've borrowed a friend's and hit with the whole Tenergy line, so to compare:
"Similar to 64 and 80"
"The feel and speed are quite close, spin is somewhat inferior"
— something like that, I'd say.
That said, while the maximum amount of spin isn't huge, you get a decent amount of spin even with a light impact.
When I hit it casually, I was often surprised, thinking "that's actually going in?"
I guess that's what they mean by "tolerance."
When I swing all out, the way the arc draws (that sharp drop) is a bit lacking, but given my skill level, Rozena is the better choice to actually use in matches.The techniques that worked best for me were push and block.
Pushes in particular come out really sharp and low.
Chops go in reasonably stable, but I felt the amount of spin was a bit lacking.If I were a drive-oriented player, I'd use it on my backhand.
For most people Tenergy is probably overkill,
so this is a rubber worth trying at least once for anyone from lower to upper intermediate level.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
