I think this Rasant Chaos is basically Grass with the awkwardness taken out.
It's still on the harder side for opponents' backspin to fall short, and the control is solid too.
For people who use the P-1 and want more speed while keeping that OX-style variation, but don't want to switch to a sponge version... this is perfect for you.
As for the sharpness on blocks, I think that comes down more to the player's own skill.
I felt that non-tension long pips make forehand angle shots easier, but with this rubber the variation is so unpredictable that the trajectory is hard to read, and the timing on the return ball is harder to judge too.
The topsheet is thicker than on other long pips, so even played as OX it's easy to send back something like a topspin drive, or more of a grazing shot.
Actually, I think it can basically do anything.
That said, it feels like the rubber was picked to match this particular blade, so I'm not sure the same holds true on other blades.
If it bounced any more than this, it would probably start feeling like a wild horse to handle.Personally, I think I'll keep repurchasing this one for a while.

The speed doesn't lose to Tenergy or Dignics — honestly, just looking at how it flies off on contact alone, I'd say this one actually wins. The ball leaves the rubber that fast and it really flies. The trajectory defaults to skimming just barely over the net, incredibly low. I had long pips on the backhand of my penhold blade, and the combination of slow, decelerating long pips on one side and this super-fast inverted rubber on the other let me win a lot of points. The one and only major drawback is that it doesn't generate much spin. Part of that is because the ball flies off before anything else happens, but to begin with, the sponge doesn't let the ball sink in easily and the sheet doesn't really grip it either. As for control, just getting the ball on the table is fine, but if you're trying to aim precisely, it gets difficult. If you're going all-in on speed no matter what, I think you could compete just fine even with an ABS ball. It's an interesting, extreme rubber, so I'd recommend it.

I had it on a PRO LOOM blade. The amount of variation doesn't change much between 0.5 and 0.9. For sidespin blocks, whether you just touch the ball on block or use a chop-like block, it happens automatically and bites so much that opponents tend to make mistakes. Because the spin reversal is that strong, pushes or plain returns against backspin tend to pop up and become easy balls to attack. Once you get past a certain level, opponents will just target this and smash everything away. Also, because the ball leaves the rubber so quickly, I found it hard to return long, sharply cut backspin. Whether it's about ordinary technique or about being targeted as I described, this is a rubber that really requires getting used to and having a strategy.

I used the thick version on the backhand of a penhold pips-out racket. This is a switch over from MX-P50 MAX. The MX-D is easier to put spin on using just the sheet, and it was especially easy to add spin on serves where it's hard to generate impact. Even the thick version drew a nice arc, and I felt like I could do anything with it, whether flat hitting or driving. That said, with flat hits, the sheet grips so well that it bites into the ball on its own, and I got the impression it's easily affected by the opponent's spin. The sheet's grip is good enough that you can feel it tugging with your hand, so it's a bit demanding to use, and I'd say it leans more toward suiting the forehand.

The sheet is really sensitive, so it gets affected quite a bit by the opponent's spin. That said, I feel like the average performance in terms of spin reversal and wobble is better with something like Feint Long III.
Because the sponge is unique, blocks do stay controlled, but the way it loses speed feels completely different from any rubber I've used before, so it takes some getting used to.
To begin with, the pips are hard, so when blocking with a chopping-style penhold pips setup, if you don't have enough swing speed, the ball tends to float up and doesn't cut well, which easily turns into an easy ball for your opponent.
It's also fairly heavy to begin with, so I felt like someone using a shakehand grip who can take a big swing would have more freedom with it overall.
To sum up, you could say it's just that I'm not used to it yet, and that would be fair, but even after getting past all the various sense of unfamiliarity, if you asked me to choose between this and CURL (P-1, 3α), which has a similar sponge hardness, I think I'd go with CURL.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard
