    Do-Knuckle... it cuts with knuckle balls. It's a weird and genuinely fun rubber. I'm good at putting on spin and became a chopper because people told me to, but I ended up picking a rubber that barely takes any spin at all. Still, it proudly showed me that "not taking spin" doesn't mean "the ball won't bite." "Even though it's a knuckle ball, it drops whether you smash it or drive it" - that's what a topspin-player friend of mine told me. And of course, it can produce knuckle balls too - "if it couldn't, that'd be false advertising." It's really fun, so I hope you'll give it a try at least once.

    I think this blade takes the Matsushita's control and ease of generating spin as a base, and makes the top ply a bit harder for more speed.
    That speed sits at just the right level too, so whether you're chopping or driving, if you use the stroke that suits you, most shots go in. I mainly chop
    but when I go for it, I do counters, smashes, and chiquita receives, and they go in sharp, low, and long in a straight line. That said, if I use tension rubber, control gets hard and I get a lot of overshoots. For serves, it depends on the feel you've learned, but brushing gives a short serve while gripping it in gives a longer one. Receives can also be varied once you get used to it. If you're choosing rubber, I think beginner to intermediate players should go with something high-bounce like Mark V, or a soft, tacky-sponge rubber like Tackiness. Advanced players should be fine with tension rubber or something from the Hurricane series. By the way, on drives from far off the table, in my case it flies further than a beginner attacking blade. 『Sophomore in middle school』 well, it depends on the person, but I'd recommend this to anyone struggling to choose equipment or who felt the Matsushita wasn't quite enough. 【Sorry for the long post.】

    For the price range, I think the performance really stands out. Loops and counters don't slip, and you can go for broke with fast drives to score points — for this price, that's great. If I had to name a downside, it'd be that serves tend to fly long, and you have to be a bit careful with your short game. Its attacking capability is impressive whether you're on forehand or backhand. I think it's a rubber worth trying at least once.

    For people just starting table tennis, those looking to step up with a different rubber, or those whose current tension rubber doesn't suit them, I'd recommend this rubber.
    This rubber comes in a wide range of sponge thicknesses — thin, medium, medium-thick, thick, and max thickness, five in total. For beginners I'd recommend thin or medium.
    For those looking to step up, medium to thick is good. I wouldn't recommend max thickness. You can hit powerful shots, but on pushes and similar shots the opponent's spin affects you too much, causing you to go long or hit the net. I think it's good to judge the range of sponge thicknesses carefully before buying.

    It flies like a carbon blade, but the short game still stays under control. As for drives, loop drives come out nearly as fast as speed drives.
    The racket is light, so I think it's great for players who mainly rely on smashes and flat hits.
