A rubber I loved back in the speed-glue era.
The sponge is softer than the regular Bryce, so I think it's a better balanced rubber overall.
If you were to use it today, I think it would suit someone who mainly plays close to the table.
Personally, hitting flat shots with this rubber feels really good.
It's also lightweight, so it's a rubber I can recommend to female players who are good at hitting quick, flat shots on the backhand too.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

First of all, I think this blade suits wood lovers more than special material fans.
The feel is soft, and you get a real sense of the blade wrapping around the ball. I was using an outer ZLC blade before this one, so it might have felt even softer by comparison, but the ball-holding sensation was strong enough to make me doubt there was actually carbon in it.
One thing I noticed about this blade is that it doesn't have all that much bounce.
Also, the sweet spot is really small.
If you hit it right on the sweet spot you can produce powerful shots, and the snap does have that carbon-like quality.
But the sweet spot is small... really small....
I recall Table Tennis King writing about the Waldner series before, and honestly, the more I use this blade, the more I feel the gap between it and an actual Waldner.
Also, the egg-shaped blade with the round grip typical of the J.O. shape is probably irresistible if you're a Waldner fan, but be careful if you've never used one before — holding it, I found the throat cutout too small and it felt a bit off in my hand.
This isn't a blade that makes things easy for you, so I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to get scolded by Waldner.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

A friend had this on their racket and let me try it.
This rubber is easy to use.
You can really feel the ball sink into the sponge, and the speed is surprisingly good too.
Compared to spin-oriented tension rubbers, the spin is a bit lacking and it's not particularly fast, but I think it's a great rubber for building the basics.
It also seems like a good rubber for starting out with a penhold backhand.
As for the blade, I think the same maker's Swat works well with a nice balance.
Good rubber.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

I've only hit with it a little, but I'll write down my impressions anyway.
The first thing I noticed right after hitting with it is that it's not a rubber that flies on its own. But I don't mean it lacks bounce — it's hard to put into words, but instead of a flat trajectory that stabs straight through, the ball follows a solid, arcing trajectory.
It's a very well-balanced rubber, and none of drives, flat hits, blocks, the short game, or serves are hard to do with it.
Among those, I'd say the drive and the short game are where this rubber's characteristics really shine.
Since the rubber itself is on the harder side, I think it's favored by players who can generate a certain amount of impact, but I also think players without much power can handle it well enough if paired with a softer blade.
It's certainly not a cheap rubber, but among the many German-made rubbers out there, I'd say it has no real quirks, so if you're torn on what to pick, you won't regret choosing this one.
In terms of weight, the thickest sponge version in Butterfly's regular size comes in at around 50g, which isn't an unusual weight for a recent German-made rubber.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Many people start table tennis in junior high, and I think this is a good rubber even for those beginners.
Speaking of the Sriver series, back in the glue era it was a powerful rubber, but now that spin-oriented tension rubbers are the mainstream, it counts as an easy-to-handle rubber with modest bounce.
That said, the plain Sriver is quite hard, so if a beginner is going to use it, I think the EL version is the safer choice.
If you pair it with a soft wood blade, using Sriver EL on both sides should be fine too.
Also, since it's cheaper than spin-oriented tension rubbers, I think it's a good rubber for when you're just starting out and money is tight.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
