85g SSTR. From the reviews, I got the impression the rosewood top ply would be hard and awkward to use, but that's not the case at all — the feel is on the soft side, and it bounces a little more than the Clipper Wood CR. Drives come out with a lower arc. It's a bit flat, but if you put spin on it, it lands right on the table. Blocks and returns don't go wild either, staying on a flat trajectory. It's a blade that's very easy to use for both offense and defense. I recommend the grip-limited SSTR.

I switched over from the Intensity. On light hits the feel is really soft, but on medium-to-hard hits you can feel the shock in your hand. The speed is way beyond a 5-ply blade, but it doesn't fly too much. Receives, blocks, and short-game shots don't bounce as much as a 5-ply, so it feels stable. The amount of spin on drives doesn't quite match a 5-ply, but it's still plenty. The arc is high. Smash speed is reasonably fast. What's great about it is how wide the sweet spot is — I have a habit of grazing the ball near the tip of the blade on my backhand drive, and even off the sweet spot it still grips and the ball still flies through.
I'd recommend this to players who've mastered a 5-ply and want more stability. The surface ply is the same as the Infinity, so you'll need a racket coating.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I put this on my backhand, and it really flies. It goes farther than Tenergy. As for spin, it does grip the ball, but it doesn't come close to inverted rubber. I think it suits penhold players with a close-to-the-table attacking style.

Using max thickness. It doesn't bounce much, so even players who aren't confident on the backhand can swing full force. Not much speed, but plenty of spin and a nice high arc, so I'd call this a backhand-specific rubber for intermediate players. The ball sinks into the sponge a lot, so it's great for practicing backhand topspin drives. Receives and blocks have no quirks and don't bounce off wildly, so the ball settles nicely on the table for the short game. If you try to add spin on a push, the ball flies up a bit with a springy feel. Once you get used to it, there's no issue at all. You can swing full force even from away from the table, so it has the strength to help you fight back. I'd recommend it on both sides for beginners. It's a great step up from flat hitting. Easy to use, affordable, and a rubber I highly recommend.

I'm using the slim straight grip, and switching directions is easy, plus it's really easy to get the blade angle right. On top of that, it's lightweight, so it's nothing but good news. It's 89g. You can play from mid-distance or away from the table just fine too. I also use the Oru Evo, and compared to that, this one's about 1.5 times faster, with slightly less ball hold than the Oru Evo, about the same for blocking, and both have a soft feel that's just great, with no quirks at all. That's the gist of it. It's a bit heavy, so I think medium or thick on the backhand gives plenty of bounce.
