I've gone through a fair number of different short pips rubbers, and personally this was the best one for me! With other short pips, a bit of spin would end up getting on the ball, which killed the knuckleball effect unique to short pips, but I felt like this one packs in all the good points of short pips. Even I, the one hitting it, drop the ball a lot, but the effect on the opponent is huge — if you can master it, it's really nasty (in a good way)! Speed-wise, it's the fastest short pips rubber I've tried! That said, I don't think you can bring out its short-pips character unless you understand how to play with short pips. It's not suited for people who want to add spin with short pips. If anyone out there is looking for that true short-pips feel, please give it a try! It's really good!

This has been the strongest rubber out there for over 10 years! (The price is in the strongest class too, lol.) Just touching the ball is enough for it to grip and pop up on its own! Even hitting backspin at full power produces spin the opponent basically can't handle! You can swing with confidence no matter how tense the moment in a match! The first time I used it, it felt like the ball got grabbed so much it wouldn't let go at all! I felt like you really have to commit to the spin and drive through the ball, or you won't get the full benefit of this rubber. It was almost completely unsuited to flat hitting. It felt like such a waste given how well it grips the ball otherwise. Personally, though, I felt like if it were just a tiny bit harder, I'd have no complaints even when playing from further back. But it's exactly because of this softness that you can really sink the ball into it on backspin attacks! Still, the rubber wearing out fast and the price are the two sticking points. So I think I'll save Tenergy for just before important tournaments!! I thought this was truly the strongest rubber, one nothing else can beat!

Hearing it was 50 degrees, I thought it would be really hard, but it's softer than expected and sinks the ball in nicely. And it flew really well.
The drive against topspin is really good. When you time it right, you get a really nice shot.
For topspin rallies, thanks to the quality of the sheet and sponge, I was able to hold my own against the opponent's spin and fight back without losing out.
The drive against backspin had a solid sense of lift. But compared to something like Tenergy, I felt the spin was a bit weaker.
The short game also settled in nicely.
I thought this would be really good for players who hit from mid-distance or away from the table. If you catch the ball too thin, it can sometimes clip off. I think this rubber would be an option for people who find Tenergy too expensive.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
