- Against topspin, the ball really flies through the air, it's outstanding.
- Counter-spinning shots are also easy, and even balls you just react to and meet instinctively will sink into the sponge and naturally pick up topspin.
- Even hitting flat, the ball sinks in enough that you can release it right where you're aiming.- Once it starts to wear down, you don't feel much grip on the ball anymore when hitting against backspin.
- Sometimes during rallies the ball drops off when I swing.
- Because it flies out so strongly, there's always a bit of fear that you'll overblock.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Using it on my backhand
- It holds the ball quite a bit, so I never feel like I'm going to net it
- It doesn't feel like a heavy shot is going out, but you can put spin on it and control the ball well
- You can produce a loop that's usable in matches
- It holds the ball too much, so flat hits don't have much pace
- Since the ball stays on the rubber longer, I felt my arm stretching out as I tried to speed it up
- Swinging upward makes the ball stay on longer and increases overshoot misses, but if you swing forward while adding spin, the ball flies even without a hard impact
- The rubber itself feels heavy.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

It's a rubber that's been out for quite a while now, but I still think there's nothing else in this price range that can deliver this level of performance.
Good points
・Really strong against topspin — the ball flies on both drives and flat hits
・If you step back to hit, the ball speed drops a bit but it still draws a solid arc and goes in.
・Blocking is very stable, your own power transfers honestly into the shot, and it's easy to control
・Even hitting with relaxed power, the ball sinks in well and carries through
・Makes a metallic sound and feels great to hitPoints of concern
・Sometimes the sheet doesn't cooperate when hitting against backspin
・If you try to spin it using just the surface, it slips, and if you hit it too hard, instead of the spin bringing the ball down it just sails long.
・Even in backhand-to-backhand rallies, trying to carry the ball purely with spin occasionally caused it to slip and drop. You need to sink the ball in to some degree
・Adjusting for shots against backspin specifically felt difficultOverall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft

Feel on the forehand
- There's a real sense of security that if you swing, the ball will go in. On top of that, the ball feels like it has some extra pace.
- The arc is on the low side, but it still clears the net comfortably and lands on the table.
- Hitting into the ball works better than just grazing the surface.
- Especially against backspin, if you can hit into it and swing forward, you get a really good ball.
- For loop drives too, it feels like it grips better if you let the ball sink in a bit rather than just brushing the surface.Downsides
- While the rubber is still new it feels a bit hard, so if you don't wait properly before hitting, the ball can drop into the net.Feel on the backhand
- If you wait and load up properly before hitting, you get a good ball.
- The meet-hit itself is very stable, but since the ball stays on the rubber longer, it doesn't have much extra pace.
- Blocks stop really well. It's not affected much by the opponent's spin, so handling loops over the table is stress-free.
- Maybe because it holds the ball, flicks are very easy to do. Even quick flicks go in consistently.
- Against backspin, hitting into it works better, same as the forehand. Looping it was difficult.Bonus: I felt it pairs really well with CNF material.

How it feels on the forehand
- If you hit into the ball hard, it drops off the table
- If you catch it with the sheet and picture an arc, the ball sinks in on its own and you get a good shot
- Attacking backspin with a strong impact is hard; basically you need to carry the ball with spin
- Flicks don't hold the ball too much, so you can get a fast ball out
- Counters come up firmly and don't feel like they'll dropHow it feels on the backhand
- Unlike the forehand, maybe because you're not hitting with full power, the ball really moves fast
- It's not pushed around by the opponent's ball in particular, so blocking and returning spin is stress-free
- It's very strong against the opponent's fast balls, but against balls with strong spin it would sometimes fly off unexpectedly, which bothered me a bit.
- Meet hits are also fairly easy, but the ball stays relatively tame
- Backspin is easy to lift, but if you don't properly rotate your head and swing all the way through with spin, there's a scary tendency for the ball to overshoot.On the backhand it's very easy to use and I'd recommend it — the ball sinks down solidly
