  Flextra

  

  I'm a close-to-the-table fast-attack type. Currently using the thin version on the backhand side of my Clipper Wood.

  I've gone back and forth on a lot of equipment, but my backhand rubber is settled. No performance beats "ease of use." It matters far more than spin or speed.

  The sheet has that quality feel typical of Butterfly rubbers, and it doesn't feel like a "cheap rubber" at all. I'd guess it's simply sold as a value item with a smaller profit margin.

  Speed drops a bit, but that's exactly what you want on the backhand for a close-to-the-table fast-attack style. The speed gap with the short pips on my forehand lets me break the opponent's rhythm.

  Pushes are also excellent.
  On top of that, as a former chopper, I really appreciate that it can absorb enough shock to chop with even mounted on Clipper Wood.

  The more you use it, the more new techniques and combinations you can pick up - it's one of those rubbers that grows on you the more you use it.

  People often say things like "once you graduate from Flextra..." but honestly, I want to stay held back a year.

  前陣速攻型。クリッパーウッドのバック面に薄を使用中です。

  いろいろと用具で迷ってきましたが、バック面は決まりですね。「使いやすさ」に勝る性能はありません。回転やスピードよりはるかに大事。

  バタフライのラバーらしい上質感のあるシートであり、「安いラバー」という感じは全くありません。単に利ざやを抑えたサービス品なんでしょう。

  スピードがやや落ちますが、前陣速攻のバックにはこれがいい。フォアの表ソフトとのスピード差で、相手を崩せます。

  ツッツキのやりやすさも抜群。
  さらに、もとカットマンとしては、クリッパーウッドに貼ってもカットできる衝撃吸収性が有り難い。

  使えば使うほど、新しい技術やコンビネーションが習得できる、スルメラバーですね。

  「フレクストラを卒業したら・・・」などとよく言われますが、私は留年したい。

  Super Anti

  

  Used the thin sheet on the backhand of my Liberta Willow.

  This was my first anti-spin rubber, and I was surprised at how little bounce it has. Until you get used to it, it feels hard to clear the net unless your opponent hits it hard for you.

  You barely feel any effect from the opponent's spin. Even against a loop drive, if you hold back just a little, you can send it back low.

  As for putting your own spin on the ball, it only happens a tiny bit, and only when the opponent's hard hit happens to sink into the rubber just right.
  I found the reversal ability harder to control than with long pips.

  Overall, you can't really expect to return with strong reverse spin, so if you're used to a chop's trajectory where a low ball clears the net without dropping, at first you'll keep hitting the net. It needs its own unique kind of control.

  What really stands out is the sound. Because it's so soft and the sponge is thin, you get the pure feel of wood, and the impact makes a hard, loud sound. This feels really satisfying.

  It's clearly a different sound from the rubber on my forehand, but I hear anti-spin balls are hard to hit even when you know what's coming, so let's just enjoy hitting them.

  リベルタウィローのバック面にウスを使用。

  初めてのアンチラバーでしたが、跳ばなくてビックリ。慣れないうちは、相手が強打してくれないと、ネットを越すのが難しい感じですね。

  相手の回転の影響は、ほぼ受けません。ループドライブでも、ほんの少し抑えてあげれば、低く跳ばせます。

  自分から回転をかけるほうは、相手の強打がうまい具合にラバーに食い込んでくれたときに、ほんの少し、という感じです。
  反転能力に関しては、粒よりも難しいと思いました。

  総じて、強い逆回転をかけて返せることにあまり期待できないので、「低いボールが落ちないでネットを超える」というカットの弾道に慣れていると、最初はネットにかけますね。独特のコントロールが必要です。

  特筆すべきは音ですね。柔らかすぎてしかも薄いスポンジだと、木の感触がそのまま出て、硬い打球感で大音響が出ます。これが実に気持ちいいです。

  フォア面のラバーの音と明らかに違いますが、アンチのタマは、分かってても打ちづらいものらしいので、気持ちよく打っていきましょう。

  LIBERTA WILLOW

  

  This racket isn't a penhold, and it's not solid hinoki either, but it is
  a Darker product. And it's incredibly good.

  The special material absorbs the opponent's power like a sponge when you chop,
  and feels hard like a solid board when you attack. It achieves "great on offense, great on defense"
  at a high level.

  In particular, combined with the slightly thicker blade, the sense of security when chopping
  really stands out, so if you give this to a child as their first racket, I think it would
  double the fun of playing as a chopper.
  I think it's good to start with something like Tackiness Chop, and as you improve, shift
  to a rubber with a bit more offensive character.

  Honestly, when it comes to rackets, I feel like this could be the only one you need.

  One thing to note: the two I bought were 91g and 97g. Since that's a bit heavy,
  if you go inverted rubber on both sides, be careful of elbow issues and the like.

  Also, it may not be in stock at shops and can take a long time to arrive. Well, it's Darker, after all...

  このラケット、ペンホルダーでも檜単板でもないですが、ダーカー製
  です。そして、とんでもなく凄い。

  特殊素材が、カットのときはスポンジのように、相手の球威を吸収し、
  攻撃のときは板のように固くなる感覚です。「打ってよし、守ってよし」を
  高次元で実現しています。

  とくに、やや厚めのブレードと相まって、カットの際の安心感が
  際立っているので、お子様の最初のラケットにすれば、カットマンの楽しさが
  倍増かと思います。
  最初はタキネスチョップあたりを貼って、上達とともに、やや攻撃性を
  プラスしたラバーにシフトしてゆけばよいかと思います。

  正直、ラケットに関しては、これ一択でよいのではと思うほどです。

  気になる点として、私の買った２本は、９１ｇと９７ｇでした。やや重いので、
  裏裏の場合は、肘などの故障にご注意ください。

  あと、店にない、納期が長い、というのはあり得ます。ダーカーさんですから・・・

  Super Spinpips Chop II

  

  This is recommended for players who play a short-pips, close-to-the-table fast-attack style and can produce a decent impact with a meeting hit.
  If you've just switched over from inverted rubber, you won't have developed the short-pips hitting technique yet, so I wouldn't recommend this rubber.

  If you're using an attacking short-pips rubber and feel like you're making a lot of mistakes, try putting the thin version of this rubber on a blade with a hard top ply.
  I think you'll be surprised at how easy it is to use.

  Since the sponge is extremely soft, for light short-game touches or shots like drives where you come in at an angle to the ball's trajectory, the sponge's character comes through, giving you spin and stability.

  Even with a light meeting hit, you get a very slight amount of drive spin that keeps it stable, but when you put in a strong impact that reaches all the way to the blade, its character suddenly changes, and it produces a knuckle ball with a satisfying "clack" sound.

  In any case, being "easy to land on the table" is genuinely a huge help.
  For players who prioritize control, I think this is more than enough to compete with. For players who prioritize ball power and variation, once you've gotten your rhythm back with this, go back to an attacking short-pips rubber. (lol)

  フォア表前陣速攻で、ミート打ちである程度のインパクトが出せる人におすすめです。
  裏ソフトから移行してすぐの人は、表ソフトの打ち方が身に付かないので、このラバーはお勧めしません。

  攻撃用の表ソフトを使っていて、どうもミスが多いという人は、上板の硬いラケットに、このラバーの薄を貼って試してみてください。
  あまりの使いやすさに驚くと思います。

  非常に軟らかいスポンジなので、台上の軽打や、ドライブのように、ボールの軌道に対して斜めに入る打ち方だと、スポンジの性質が前に出て、回転がかかって安定します。

  軽いミート打ちでも、ごくわずかドライブがかかって安定するのですが、強いインパクトを加えて衝撃が板まで届くと、突如性格が変わり、「カキン」と快音をたててナックルボールが出ます。

  とにかく、「入りやすい」というのは本当に有難い。
  コントロール重視の人は、これで十分戦えると思います。球威や変化重視の人は、これで調子を取り戻したら、攻撃用の表に戻りましょう。(笑)

  I put the thin version on my Gouriki forehand.

  Since both the blade and rubber are low-bounce, of course it doesn't have much speed, but it's plenty if you focus on defense and play close to the table.

  What surprised me is how easy it is to use and how good the control is. It really feels like you're picking the ball up with your hand and placing it on the opponent's side of the table.
  I think the balance between bounce and spin is good, because even when you make contact a bit too thick, it still gets a moderate amount of topspin and lands like it's sticking to the opponent's court.

  Obviously it's recommended as a first rubber for beginners, but honestly, as long as you're winning with it, isn't it enough to just keep using it?
  Even against big swings from tension rubber users, you can block easily, so you won't lose easily.

  剛力のフォアに薄を貼りました。

  跳ばない同士の組み合わせですので、当然弾みませんが、守備力重視で前陣で戦う分には十分です。

  驚くのは、その使いやすさとコントロール性能です。本当に、「ボールを手で持って、相手コートに置いてくる」というような感覚です。
  弾みと回転量のバランスがいいのだと思いますが、厚く当たりすぎたときでも、適度なドライブ回転がかかって、相手コートに吸い付くように入ります。

  初心者の一枚目にお勧めなのは当然なんですが、勝ててるうちは、ずっとこれでも十分なのでは？
  テンションの大振りを相手にしても、簡単にブロックできるんで、容易には負けませんよ。
