I'm writing this comparing it to the Attack 8 (M pips, 43°), which I've used for over 4 years.
This rubber leans much more toward a standard short-pips character than the Attack 8.
On a normal light shot it gives you a gentle topspin, and since the sponge is soft you can get some flight even on light shots. (On the flip side, hitting hard doesn't give you much power.) With spin-generating techniques like pushes, backhand drives, and chiquitas, you can get a decent amount of spin on the ball. Blocking is relatively stable, but it won't produce a knuckleball unless you create the variation yourself.
Unlike the Attack 8, this isn't a rubber that gives you variation automatically. It's suited to players who want defensive ability from short pips but like to add their own spin variation.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

The blade itself already has some weight to it, and since the blade size is large, putting heavier rubber on it makes the whole thing quite heavy. If I put tacky rubber on the forehand and even a lighter short pips rubber on the backhand (like Spectol, VO›101, or half-length pips), it comes out to around the low 190g range. With a heavier short pips rubber (like Moristo SP or VO›103), it comes out to around the high 190g range.
As for characteristics: "you don't get pushed back by the opponent's ball on blocks — as long as you get it on the blade, you can return it somehow," "smashing floating chops became easier, and I stopped losing to the opponent's spin," and "(even though the speed itself got slower,) the ball got heavier and my drives started landing in one shot" — things like that.
If you put spin on it, it flies, but with a flat hit it doesn't fly much. When you add spin the feel is soft, but with a flat hit the feel becomes quite hard. I don't think it's a particular problem if you play close to the table though.
For the backhand, I'd recommend a soft rubber. When I put on a hardness of rubber I'd used on other blades, the feel got too hard and I lost control.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

This is a well-balanced rubber with the typical traits of a Chinese-made short pips.
The topsheet grips the ball strongly, and the rubber itself is quite hard.
If you brush it with the sheet, you get solid spin, and if you meet it flat, you get a knuckle ball.I think it suits choppers, penhold short pips users, and the forehand side of a shakehand blade.
If you use it on the backhand side of a shakehand blade, I don't think it will suit players who like to sink the ball into the sponge to add spin, or players who aren't good at flicking/hitting the ball flat.

It has a special material in the inner ply, but overall it plays like a wood plywood blade. It has properties of both a typical 5-ply blade (like the Acoustic) and a 7-ply blade (like the Clipper Wood). The unique traits of this blade are: "the plywood is a bit thick, and even though it's a blade that's easy to drive with, flat hitting is also fairly easy to do," and "the blade head is on the smaller side, so the total racket weight doesn't get too heavy even with heavy rubber mounted."
■Bounce
5-ply < Ai Fukuhara Pro << 7-ply: it bounces just a bit more than a 5-ply.■Ease of driving
7-ply < Ai Fukuhara Pro < 5-ply: it's roughly in between a 5-ply and a 7-ply.■Ease of flat hitting
5-ply << Ai Fukuhara Pro < 7-ply: close to a 7-ply.■Weight with rubber mounted
Ai Fukuhara Pro < 5-ply < 7-ply: even with heavy rubber mounted, you can still handle it close to the table.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I'll review this by comparing it with "Golden Tango" and "Rakza Z Extra Hard."
Rather than a tacky rubber, "Rakza Z" is closer to a regular spin-oriented tension rubber. The contact feel is soft, and it's easy to do meet-and-hit shots that are usually hard with tacky rubbers.
Compared to a regular spin-oriented tension rubber, it draws a high arc and lands deep on the table. It doesn't produce the irregular spin variations you get with "Golden Tango," giving a more stable ball instead. It's heavier than "Golden Tango," but the ball itself feels lighter. In terms of raw speed, you can get a faster ball than with "Rakza Z Extra Hard," but the ball itself feels lighter.
I'd recommend this to people who want to shift from spin-oriented tension rubbers to tacky rubbers, people who didn't get along with other tacky rubbers (like "Golden Tango" or "Rakza Z Extra Hard"), and people who want to put a tacky rubber on their backhand.
