  Vega Asia

  

  I borrowed my nephew's and hit with it, and it was really easy to use.
  It's easy to use, all the techniques are easy to pull off, and the feel is good too.
  Not too hard, not too soft, the ball sinks into the sponge nicely, and it has just the right amount of bounce.
  The feel is so good that even though it's a plain wood blade, I almost thought there was fiber or ultra-thin carbon in there. It makes a nice crisp sound on hard shots.
  The rubber I tried was a bit old, so I can't give an accurate rating on the spin.
  One thing though, it's a bit pricey (the list price is about the same, though). I'd like to try the Factive too, but it's a bit expensive so it's basically the same as not buying it.
  It's only a 300-500 yen difference, but when there's a rubber with equivalent performance for less, you end up buying that one instead.

  甥っ子のを借りて打ったのだけど、凄く使いやすかった。
  使いやすくて全ての技術がやりやすい打球感もいい。
  硬すぎず柔らかすぎず食い込みも良くて程よく飛ぶ。
  打球感がいいので木材ラケットだけどファイバーか極薄カーボン入ってるのかと思ってしまう程でした。強打でカキンと良い音がする。
  回転は少し古かったので正確な評価はできないな。
  ただ若干売値が高いんだよね（定価は同等だけど）ファクティブも使ってみたいけど若干高いので買わないのと同じ。
  300～500円くらいの差なんだけど、同等性能のラバーあると、そっち買っちゃうよね。

  Fastarc G-1

  

  I'm coming back to table tennis after a 30-year break, so the only rubbers I have to compare this to are things like Mark V or Tackiness.
  Since this is my first tension rubber and the balls are now plastic, the feel was kind of mushy and felt strange at first, but once I got used to it I was shocked at how much things have changed in 30 years — the amazing grip on the ball, the huge amount of spin, and the speed you can get even with a light swing.
  People even tell me my stop shots have backspin on them, or that my basic forehand strokes have topspin mixed in.
  Because the spin is so strong, drives hit from far off the table come in with a nice high arcing trajectory. It's an amazing rubber.

  30年ぶり復帰組なので、今あるラバーだとマークⅤやタキネスくらいしか比較できません。
  初のテンションラバーと球がプラスティックになった事もあり、打球感がグニャグニャして気持ち悪かったですが、慣れてくると引っ掛かりの凄さ、回転量の凄さ、軽い力でも飛ばせる速度、30年でこんなにも変わったのかと少しショックを受けました。
  ストップでも下回転入ってたり、フォアの基本打ちでもドライブ回転入ってるなど言われるくらいです。
  回転が凄いから離れた位置からのドライブが、弧線を描いて入ってくれる凄いラバーです。

  V>11 EXTRA

  

  A friend recommended this to me, saying it would suit my game, so I bought it.
  When I hit with it, the sheet surface feels like it doesn't grip the ball much, but you can still lift a backspin ball normally without issue.
  Unlike soft rubbers that tend to float up on pushes, the trajectory overall is flat and straight, like a hard rubber.
  Since the sheet feels like it doesn't grip much, I feel like I can hit through my opponent's spin without worrying about it too much.
  Because the sheet doesn't grip much, it feels like I'm not putting great spin on my serves myself, but apparently they still carry a decent amount of spin.
  With soft rubbers, doing multiball practice usually leaves marks on the rubber that don't come out, but this one didn't leave any marks, so it might have a longer lifespan.
  Personally, I feel like it's a bit on the harder side and something I'd rather use once I've improved a bit more, but it's still quite easy to use.
  It feels like a soft rubber, but the sponge underneath is hard, so if you don't put a proper swing behind it, you won't get a good shot - which makes it tiring.
  It's not particularly specialized in any one thing; I felt like every technique was easy to pull off with it.
  I don't think it'll suit players who specialize in brushing the ball with the sheet and prefer a high, looping arc.
  Since the sheet feels like it grips less, I knocked one point off for spin.

  友人からのお勧めで、私に合うラバーとの事で購入しました。
  打った感じでは、シート表面の引っ掛かりが少なく感じるのだけど、普通に下回転を持ち上げられる。
  柔らかいラバーにありがちなツッツキで浮きやすい事もなく、全体的に弾道が硬いラバーみたいな直線的です。
  シートの引っ掛かりが少なく感じるので相手の回転の影響をあまり気にせず叩ける気がします。
  シートの引っ掛かりで、サーブも自分では上手くかけれてない気がしますが、それなりに回転かかってるようです。
  柔らかいラバーで多球練習をするとラバーに取れない跡が残るのですが、このラバーは跡が残らなかったので寿命が長いかもしれません。
  個人的には少し硬めでもう少し上達してから使いたいなと思うラバーですが、かなり使いやすいです。
  柔らかめに感じるラバーですが、スポンジは硬いのでそれなりのスイングで振らないと良い球は出ない印象ですので疲れます。
  何かに特化してるわけでもなく全ての技術がやり易く感じました。
  シートの擦り打ち特化で放物線弾道を好む人には合わないんじゃないかな？と思います。
  シートの引っ掛かり感が少なく感じるので回転を1つ下げさせて頂きました。

  Spectol Red

  

  I switched from Spectol Blue to Red, but I honestly can't tell much difference.
  A hitting partner asked if I'd switched to inverted rubber, so I guess the spin went up a bit, but from my own feel when hitting, there's not much difference.
  Since the sponge is red, about the only thing I noticed is that the rubber looks a nice, pretty red now.

  After using it a bit more, there's actually quite a difference.
  With Blue, when you brushed the ball like on a topspin drive, there was a "slippy" gliding feeling,
  but with Red, while it's not as much as inverted rubber, you can feel a bit more grip on the ball.

  If you do a lot of meet-hitting or knuckle balls, Blue seems like the better choice.
  You get less of that typical short-pips wobble, but for people who want more spin out of their short pips, Red seems like the better pick.

  スペクトル青から赤に換えたけど、違いがよくわかりません。
  一緒に打ってる人から裏に換えた？と言われたので回転が少し増えったっぽいですが、自分で打ってる感じに違いがありません。
  赤いスポンジなのでラバーの赤色が奇麗な赤になったなぁと思うくらいです。

  少し使ったら結構違う。
  青はドライブみたいな擦る打ち方すると「ズリッ」と滑る感じがあったが、
  赤は、裏ラバー程ではないが、少し引っ掛かりを感じる。

  ミート打ちやナックル多様なら青の方が良さそう
  表っぽい癖玉が減るが、表で回転が欲しい人には赤の方が良さそう。

  Swat

  

  I bought this five years ago because it got rave reviews for beginner-to-intermediate players, but it didn't suit me.
  The flared grip was a bit angular and a little too thick for me. I switch my grip for serves, pushes, drives, backhand, and smashes, and it kept catching on the wrinkles of my hand in a way that felt unpleasant, so I sanded the grip down to be rounder and thinner.
  I also tried a bunch of different rubbers, but I could never get a feel for it — it doesn't resonate in my hand, and the sound of the ball hitting it is unpleasant.
  It's reasonably fast and gets a reasonable amount of spin, and it has some grip on the ball, but the control was mediocre and it just didn't click with me.
  For a player with high skill it might be a blade that can do anything, but for a player with lower skill, everything feels half-baked — you can only produce speed and spin that the opponent is expecting, and since the control isn't great either, it's hard to aim for specific courses.
  For players who are still developing, it makes it hard to play in a way that leverages your own strengths and to commit fully to your shots, so I especially wouldn't recommend it to anyone who's mentally not that tough.
  It might be a good blade for figuring out what you want to do, but personally I wouldn't recommend it.

  初中級者向けに絶賛の評価だったので5年前に買ったけど自分には合わなかった。
  フレアのグリップが少し角ばっていて自分には少し太かった。サーブ、ツッツキ、ドライブ、バック、スマッシュで持ち替えるのだけど、手のシワの部分に引っかかる感じがして気持ちが悪いのでグリップを丸く細めに加工した。
  ラバーもいろいろ試したが、感覚がつかめず、手に響かない、打球音が気持ち悪い。
  そこそこ速い、そこそこ回転がかかる、球持ちはあるがコントロール性が微妙で合いませんでした。
  能力値の高いプレイヤーなら何でもできるラケットなのかも知れないが、能力値の低いプレイヤーには何をやっても中途半端で相手の想定内の速度や回転の球しか打てずコントロールもいまいちなのでコースも狙い難い。
  成長段階の人には自分の武器を活かすプレイができず思い切ったプレイができなくなるので特にメンタルの弱い人にはおすすめしない。
  自分が何をしたいのかを探すにはよいラケットかも知れないが、個人的にはおすすめしない。
