    I use this on the backhand, 2.1mm thickness.
    It's supposedly the soft version at 42.5 degrees, but it's not too soft at all.
    I use Bluestorm Z1 on my forehand and the feel suited me well, so I tried this rubber, which has higher control, for the backhand.
    When I hit with it, the first thing I noticed was that it makes a metallic sound on contact that feels really good — the sound from back in the speed-glue days.
    It has a moderate amount of bounce, spin is easy to put on, and topspin drives and the short game aren't a struggle either. It's such a well-made rubber that it's almost strange how few reviews there are on other sites. I recommend it with full confidence.

    Using MAX+ thickness on the forehand.
    I used to use Rozena, but it was too soft and I often lost power when hitting hard shots, so I switched this time.

    My first impression after hitting with it: it flies!! That's really the only word for it.
    It's also easy to put spin on, and my practice partner said the ball has more life on it than before.
    I've also had fewer easy misses on smashes compared to before, which made table tennis fun again.
    I didn't find the short game especially hard to handle either, so I think I'll keep using this one for a while.

    The one thing that bugs me is that it's a little hard to tell where the center is when you're gluing the rubber on.

    I use max thickness on the backhand. My forehand has Dignics 80 (also max thickness), and the total racket weight is 176.5g, so even with max thickness on both sides, I can keep swinging freely.
    It's easy to put spin on drives, and the feel when hitting flat is really pleasant.
    Compared to Dignics, drives land a little shallower, but the consistency is outstanding.
    Even factoring in the price and the rubber's durability, I think this is more than enough for intermediate players.
    If you're used to rubbers with a hardness of 50 degrees or higher, this might feel too soft, but if you believe "lighter is justice," it's worth trying at least once.

    It's light and easy to drive the ball with, so I'd recommend it for players who play close to the table or at mid-distance.
    Even with a hard, thick rubber on it, the total weight doesn't get too heavy, so it's easy to adjust, and I felt like it really widens the range of equipment choices.

    I've even had opponents in matches say "whoa, that's light!!"
    If you're looking for a light, easy-to-handle blade, definitely give it a try.
