Black, max thickness.
77g → 55g
Measured from the sheet side with a Shore C hardness tester: 46.5°
D09C: 50g, 50.8°
Hurricane Pro: 43g, 42.4
1. Really easy to handle!!
2. The sponge is hard, making counter-drives easy!!
3. When you really sink the ball in, you can hit the kind of heavy drive typical of tacky rubbers!
Despite being labeled "extra hard," the sponge clearly has air bubbles in it — it's like a tension-type sponge made hard in the style of a tacky rubber. The sheet has some tackiness too, but the pimple shape is a structure that tips over more easily than you'd expect for a tacky rubber, and it grabs the ball far better than I imagined, making it easy to get speed and easy to handle overall. Given how well it grabs the ball, I worried it might lack that typical tacky feel, but when you drive through it firmly, aiming to really smash into the ball, it does turn into a pretty heavy, tacky-style drive. It's easy to use, and as long as you have the power, I think it's a rubber with plenty of that tacky character and flavor.

maXXimum, red.
74g → 50g
Measured from the sheet side with a Shore C hardness gauge: 46.8°
D05: 48g, 50.0°
T05: 47g, 44.6°
Nexxus XT Pro 50: 50g, 43.3°1. A rubber that feels like German sponge combined with a Japanese-made sheet
2. Sink the ball in properly and it puts on plenty of spin!
3. Easy to use! Even swinging carelessly, the ball lands on the opponent's table!
To put it positively: easy to use, cheap, and the best value for money! To put it negatively: it lacks a clear defining characteristic, and I found it hard to feel a big difference between the EL53 and the XT50. It being forgiving enough to land even with a careless swing is great, but on the flip side, it might be hard to feel the difference between a miss and a good shot.
From the hitter's perspective I didn't feel like I was putting that much spin on it, but my opponent kept overshooting, so it seems there's more spin than I expected. Because of that, I'd say the speed is indeed slower compared to the XT. That said, the difference wasn't clear enough to notice strongly.

maXXimum, red.
74g → 50g.
Measured from the sheet side with a Shore C hardness gauge: 43.3°.
D05: 48g, 50.0°
T05: 47g, 44.6°
Nexxus EL Pro 53: 50g, 46.8°1. Easy to use! Even a casual swing lands on the opponent's side of the table!
2. Low arc with a real sense of speed!
3. Not very affected by the opponent's spin.
To put it positively: easy to use, cheap, and amazing value for money! To put it negatively: it doesn't have much of a distinct character, and it was hard to feel a big difference between this and the EL53 or XT50. It's great that shots land in even with a casual swing, but on the flip side, it might be hard to feel the difference between a mis-hit and a good shot.

Max thickness, red.
70g -> 49g
Measured from the topsheet side with a Shore C hardness meter: 42.8°
D05: 48g, 50.0°
T05: 47g, 44.6°
Target Pro XD-52.5: 54g, 47.9°1. Easy to handle!
2. The sheet is strong and the spin performance is extremely high!
3. Even though it's a rubber close to medium hardness, counter-driving is easy!
It's hard to argue if someone says it's priced accordingly, but it's a really good rubber. The Target XD series is so high-spec that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's not just a rubber you can use in matches, but one you'll want to use.

Max, black.
72g → 51g
Measured from the sheet side with a Shore C hardness tester: 42.2°
D09C: 50g, 50.8°
Hybrid K3: 51g, 42.2°
Dynaryz ZGR: 58g, 48.2°
Omega VII China Shadow: 57g, 50.5°
Blade: Yinhe 970XX-KLC
1. Harder isn't always better! A heavy ball typical of tacky rubber!
2. Being a tacky tension rubber, the speed performance is also high!
3. Even though it's a tacky rubber, you can bring out its performance without needing to open up your racket angle!
As a tacky tension rubber, I felt the spin performance was a bit lower than D09C, but in exchange the ease of use, the characteristic quirkiness of tacky rubber, and the speed really felt like classic Tibhar.
