    I was looking for a rubber for my backhand when I heard this one was coming out, so I decided to give it a try. Honestly, this was my first time playing with a German-style rubber.
    When I tried hitting with it, yeah, it flies pretty well. At first I was thrown off by how different the feel and trajectory were compared to what I'd been using before (which makes sense), but as I gradually got a feel for how to hit it, I was able to put good spin on the ball while still getting speed. It's not like the spin is anything extraordinary, but since the sheet is on the softer side, I think it makes it a bit easier to generate spin. I especially found meeting-the-ball techniques easy with this one! Blocking flies a little more than I'd like, probably because of the blade I'm using. But that's not all bad - it also means you can get counter-style blocks off it. And like I mentioned at the start, it really has been made lighter, and I could feel that while playing with it. So I don't think there'd be any issue putting a MAX sponge version on. That said, I personally feel it's a bit lacking in power, so I'd recommend using it on the backhand for players with a certain level of skill. It's also reasonably priced, so why not give it a try?

    I'll write a review covering my experience from when I first used it up to now.
    First off, since I'd been using a 5-ply wood blade myself, I was shocked at first by how fast the ball left the blade lol
    But as I kept using it I got used to it and grew to like the feel too. The control is a bit tricky, but once you get used to it I think it becomes a really powerful weapon!
    I'm actually using the combo below right now. Personally I love the grip design - it looks so cool!
    It's been over 10 years since release, but it's still a popular blade. If you play table tennis, it's one you'll want to try at least once.
    That said, there are two things to watch out for.
    1. The grip area is hollow, so if you put on a heavy rubber it tends to become top-heavy.
    If you've got power behind your shots it's not really an issue though.
    2. Since it's an outer-carbon blade, I wouldn't recommend jumping straight to it from a plain wood blade.
    It's hard to handle unless you already have a decent level of basic technique.
    With that in mind, it might be worth trying an inner-carbon blade first (e.g. Innerforce Layer ALC) to get used to the material,
    and then switching to this one once you want a bit more bounce.

    I put it on my forehand and gave it a test hit.
    First off, it's faster than the Tenergy 05 I'd been using. The feel on impact is obviously harder than Tenergy, but strangely enough I could still feel it gripping the ball. Before hitting, I imagined it would just fly off wildly, but the topspin drive was surprisingly easy to control. That said, I still don't have the skill to bring out this rubber's full potential lol.

    I couldn't fully use Dignics so I went back to this one (forehand). Guess that rubber really needs some skill...
    Enough with the preamble, on to the review.
    After actually using it, I feel like I understand why it's still so popular even though it's been out for quite a while.
    The bounce is good and it gets plenty of spin. Serves bite well, and it stops nicely for the short game too. (as long as you have the skill, haha)
    It really feels like it can do just about anything, lol
    This is definitely a rubber I'd want everyone to try at least once!

    Used on the backhand.
    The speed felt almost on par with Tenergy. I think the spin is a bit weaker. Honestly, if I had to describe this rubber in one word, it would be "for the backhand" - it really is that easy to use there! I think beginner to intermediate players can make it work, but for players with more skill, when it comes to using it on the forehand, I have to say again, the lack of power is undeniable. I think it does produce speed, but when I asked my opponents, they said my forehand drives came in feeling light. So I'd still recommend using it on the backhand. As for the actual lifespan, if you ask me, even for someone who doesn't practice hard, I'd say it's good for about three months (at its peak).
