    Maybe it just happens to fit my playing style, or maybe it's some kind of magic combination, but mounting this at thick on Goriki, forehand chops became incredibly easy to hit.

    It stays low, gets spin on the ball, and carries all the way to the back of the table - there's really nothing to complain about.

    I actually gave up on being a chopper and switched to close-to-the-table attacking style, but this was good enough to make me want to try chopping again.
    Neither Goriki nor Xiang Long are actually meant for chopping equipment, though...

    I use short pips on both sides, and I felt that the hardness of the top ply suits short pips extremely well.

    It's quite similar to the Clipper Wood I normally use, but the Avalox is just a touch harder, releases the ball a bit faster, and feels just slightly less bouncy.

    The Clipper is more exhilarating for one-course drills, but I think the Avalox is the one that leads to fewer mistakes in matches.

    I'd heard the grip runs on the thick side, but for the ST shape it's about the same as the Clipper, and it was just right for me. It might be a bit thick for women.

    Honestly, I thought there was no wood blade out there that suited short pips better than the Clipper, but turns out there was one.

    First off, the looks are great.
    The grip has no lens/emblem, and no racket name printed on it. It's a simple, single shade of red.
    The blade is as big as a uchiwa fan, but it has a well-balanced shape, so it doesn't feel misshapen at all, and it has the atmosphere of a vintage chopper's blade.

    In terms of function, among chopping blades, I think it leans a bit toward the defensive side. With the right rubber you can adjust it to attack plenty well, but I think it's basically suited to someone who prioritizes defense.

    The performance isn't especially sharp or extreme in any one direction, so if anything, I think it grows on you more the longer you use it.

    I put medium sponge on the forehand side of a Liberta Willow. (Backhand is Curl P-4 Gokusu.)

    If Tackiness Chop 2 is Tackiness Chop with a harder sponge, this Rev Spin feels like it keeps the sponge soft while making the sheet harder. Also, there's almost no tackiness, but the sheet itself grips the ball strongly.

    It has control performance on par with Tackiness Chop, but it's less affected by the opponent's spin, and there's kind of a feeling similar to hitting with short pips.

    And yet, when you chop it sharply with a "click," you get spin on par with a spin-oriented tension rubber.

    Even when you're rushed and don't have room to add spin, since it doesn't bounce much, if you just block it, the ball goes in anyway. (This turns out to matter more than you'd think.)

    Attacking is really at a bare minimum, if that, but I think this is an ideal rubber for someone who wants to grind opponents down with chops.

    The more you use it, the more you appreciate how good it is, so I'd recommend sticking with it for at least six months.
    It's unassuming, but I think this is a good rubber.
    (Addendum) Even though it's not a tension rubber, it's a bit pricey, but it makes up for it with durability. It lasts about twice as long as Morristo DF.

    Short pips for close-to-the-table quick attack on the forehand. Using the thick version on the backhand side with Gouriki.

    I'll keep quiet about certain "adult reasons," but I'm pretty sure there's a light tension treatment on this one.
    It bounces really nicely on soft touches. It probably tops out on full-power hits, but honestly, in an actual match you almost never get the chance to swing all-out with perfect position anyway. What matters, like they say about a car, is having "plenty of torque in the practical range."
    In that sense, this rubber is a perfect 10. It seems to perform best right around the power level you actually use most in a match.

    And while it doesn't generate all that much spin on its own, what's great is that it's "hard to be affected by your opponent's spin."
    It's similar to Nittaku's own Gouriki Kaisoku.
    If you feel Gouriki Kaisoku bounces too much, this one might be worth trying instead.
