  GORIKI SUPER CUT

  

  I was amazed at how easy the regular Gouriki was to use, and the moment the Super Cut came out I bought it and I've stuck with it ever since!

  First, the weight that's typical of Gouriki blades. Mine was 108g, but since the balance sits toward the tip, it feels a bit heavier than the actual weight.

  Topspin-based techniques are generally easy to pull off, especially blocks and counters, which are very stable.

  Because the blade is heavy, no matter how hard the ball comes in, I don't need to close the racket face — I can hit the ball with my normal swing.

  Now, for the main event — the backspin/chop techniques — there's nothing to complain about at all!! Both chops taken right next to the table and chops taken further back come in low with a straight trajectory.
  A hard chop and a no-spin chop also come in with almost the same trajectory, so this is a great recommendation for anyone who wins points through variation in their chops.

  Whether it's pushes with or without backspin, or low, short stops, or "miyuta," whatever I try comes out exactly as I imagined!
  Honestly, I almost resent Nittaku for not having sold this while I was still a student (lol)

  The list price is 30,000 yen, so it's pricey and not that easy to commit to. But if you really want to win, I'd love for you to try this as a chopper!

  ノーマル剛力を使った時にあまりの使い易さに驚き、スーパーカットが出た瞬間に購入しずっと愛用しています！

  まずは剛力特有のの重さ。私が購入したのは108gでしたが重心が先端寄りなので実際の重さより少し重く感じます。

  上回転系の技術は全般的にやり易く、特にブロック、カウンターが安定して出来ます。

  ラケットが重いおかげでどんなに強く球が来てもラケットを被せることなく、普段のスイングで球を打つことが出来ます。

  さて、本命の下回転系の技術では何もダメ出しする事がありません！！
  台のすぐ側のカットから台から下がってのカット、どちらも低く、直線的な弾道で入ります。
  またブチ切ったカットとナックルカットもほぼ同じ弾道で入るので、カットの変化で勝負される方にとてもオススメです。

  ツッツキの切る切らないの変化や低く短いストップ、ミユータなど何をしても想像通りのプレーが出来ます！
  はっきり言って私が学生時代に販売されなかった事にニッタクさんを恨むほどです（笑）

  定価が3万円とお値段が張るのでなかなか手が出しづらいと思うます。しかし本当に勝ちたいならばカットマンとして是非使って貰いたいです！

  HURRICANE 2 PRO

  

  Hurricane (Provincial Hurricane) type rubbers are often assumed to lack speed because they're spin-focused, but that's not true - it puts out speed that holds its own against tension rubbers.
  Because the sheet on this rubber is very tacky and has thick pips, it's especially easy to use for the short game and serve/receive.
  For drives too, looping puts on enough spin to make the opponent's block go over, and if you smack the ball hard, you get quite a bit of speed.
  A certain table tennis YouTuber says that brushing is what matters with Chinese rubbers, but personally I think what matters is brushing after you've whipped/smacked the ball.
  Doing it that way lets you use both the hardness of the sponge and the tackiness of the sheet, giving you that distinctive ball quality unique to Chinese rubbers.

  狂飆2系は回転重視との為スピードが出ないと思われがちですが、そんな事はなくテンションにも引けをとらないほどのスピードが出ます。
  このラバーはシートの粘着量が強くシートの粒が太い為、とくに台上の技術やサーブレシーブがやり易いです。
  ドライブもループでしたら相手のブロックのオーバーを狙えるほどの回転が掛かり、ボールをしばくように打てばかなりのスピードが出ます。
  某卓球YouTuberは中国系ラバーは擦る事が大切だと言われてますが、個人的にはボールをしばくように叩いた後に擦る事が大切だと思います。
  そうする事でスポンジの硬さとシートの粘着力の両方が使えて中国系ラバー独自の球質になります。

  DO KNUCKLE 44

  

  This is a review as a chopper using large ball (44mm).
  With large ball, the usual impression is that it's hard to get spin on your chops and opponents just knock them back easily, but with this rubber you can put spin on your chops that's comparable to 40mm ball.
  The arc on your chops stays low, and after the ball bounces on the opponent's side it kind of stops and keeps spinning, which makes it a tough ball for them to attack.
  As for attacking, there's nothing particularly hard to do either — hit it flat off the racket for a fast knuckle ball, or brush the sheet for a solid topspin drive.
  I've written a lot here, but the biggest strength of this rubber is really its control.
  The ball lands exactly where you aim it, and I think that's this rubber's greatest strength.
  Even if you're not a chopper, I'd recommend giving it a try if you like to play a game built around placement, or if you mix things up with your forehand.

  ラージボールでカットマンとしてのレビューになります。
  ラージボールではなかなか回転が掛からなくカットしても簡単に打ち返されるというイメージですが、このラバーはカットした時に40mmと同じ様な回転に掛けれます。
  カットした時の弧線は低く、また相手のコートでバウンドした後はボールが止まり回転も掛かっているので相手にとって打ちづらい球になります。
  また攻撃に関してもラケットで弾くように打てばナックルの速い球、シートで擦ればしっかりとしたドライブなど特にやり難い技術はありません。
  色々と書いてますがこのラバーの一番の特徴はコントロールが良いです。
  自分が狙ったコースに綺麗に入る、これがこのラバーの一番の強みだと思います。
  カットマンでなくてもコース取りで試合を運ぶ方やフォア面との変化で勝負される方なら一度は試して欲しいです。

  DEFENSIVE PRO

  

  Both chopping and attacking come in stable, and it handles everything without a hitch.
  That said, I feel the actual amount of spin on chops is lower than with an all-wood blade.
  The one I used had a kind of hollow feel, and while shots landed on the opponent's side, the spin and speed were a bit lacking. It was a strange blade — shots I thought would land wouldn't, and shots I thought wouldn't land would.
  To put it positively, it varies naturally, so if you can consistently place the ball on the opponent's side, that alone becomes a weapon.

  カット、攻撃ともに安定して入りなんでも即なくこなせるラケットです。
  しかしカットの回転の絶対値が木材ラケットに比べると低いなと感じます。
  自分が使ったラケットは打球感がスカスカしており相手のコートには入るのですが、回転量やスピードがイマイチだったり、入ったと思った球が入らなかったり逆に入らないなと思った球が入るなど不思議なラケットでした。
  良く言えばナチュラルに変化するのできちんと相手のコートに入れる事が出来れば、それだけで武器になると思います。
