Since there's already a lot of talk about the grip, let me start with the performance side — as an outer blade, it's quite easy to handle.
Because it uses arylate carbon, the ball doesn't fly off immediately on contact. That said, it's not soft either.Putting tacky rubber on it won't get you spin, won't give you distance, and the control is bad — not worth spending big money on. Go with tension rubber instead.
Rating by technique (out of 10)
Topspin drive... 9
Great speed and spin, really good shots come off it. Plenty of extension too
Be careful though, if you force it the ball flies off
Smash... 9
Being an outer blade, it's got some spring to it, so this is really easy to do
Block... 5
Not the easiest. It's not the kind of racket that absorbs the opponent's power, so the ball tends to fly off a bit. If you can't get a good angle, it's tough
Push... 4
If you try to add backspin the ball flies too far, and if you just make contact it pops up — not stable. Hard to use
Stop (short push)... 7
This one was surprisingly easy to do for some reason. Satisfying how short it stays. Flies off if you force it though
Overall... 8
Seems suited for players with 3+ years of experience who can win a couple of matches at the prefectural tournament level
The attacking power on drives is outstanding, true to an outer bladeOverall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

My impressions!
It flies.
Flat trajectory.
You need to close your racket angle or you won't get a good ball.
The ball leaves the rubber fast.
Compared to other rubbers, it doesn't feel like you're putting much spin on the ball.
It feels softer than its actual hardness suggests, kind of a light "poing" feel.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard
Recomend racket CARBONADO 45

First off, it's lightweight, so even with Tenergy max thickness on both sides it still swings easily.
As for performance:
it's faster than other 5-ply blades.
The flex also makes it easy to put spin on the ball.
Control-wise, it's easy to place the ball where you're aiming.
It's not a very well-known blade, but it's definitely worth trying.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little soft

I really liked this rubber.
Compared to the plain version, it puts on spin better.
With light hits it goes in consistently, giving you a great sense of security.
I'd especially recommend it for the backhand.
It's soft, so serving takes some getting used to.The downside is that flat, flicking strokes sink the ball in too much and are hard to control.
Control is beyond complaint.
It's a high-performance rubber that even a beginner could handle with a solid coach, whether it's your first tension rubber or not.
Please give it a try.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Spins about as much as a high-elasticity inverted rubber.
On the plus side, it's easy to handle and perfect for beginners trying short pips.
On the downside, it's a bit middle-of-the-road and lacks the nasty pips characteristics.
