    Just like the title says. Blocks really do go in almost on their own. Countering is easy too, so it's perfect on defense.

    On offense, speed drives don't have enough spin so they get blocked easily, but if you pick your course you can still get enough speed to get through, and if you really muscle a loop you can generate enough spin to blow past a block. (Since you're forcing it, it obviously doesn't work every time.)

    If I have a complaint, it's that when I chiquita a heavily spun serve, it often clips the ball and drops short. This seems to happen more when trying to chiquita fast. Because of that, I've started doing my chiquita in reverse.


    I mainly play forehand so it doesn't bother me much, but if you swing your backhand a lot and want both speed and spin, this might not be for you.

    If you don't swing your backhand much and are just looking for a rubber that goes in reliably without mistakes, with no big holes on offense, this one is recommended.

    I used this constantly back in high school, so part of this might just be that I'm used to it.

    At most I practice once a week, but usually it's more like once a month.

    1) Even if my form is bad and I only use my forearm, a decent ball still comes out, so I can play a stable game.

    2) Even with a small-motion serve like an up-down serve where you mix up the spin, it's impressive how much speed it can still generate.

    3) You can counter almost as easily as with a tacky rubber.

    Tacky rubbers have great spin, but I always struggled with the lack of speed.

    You might think, "then why not just use Tenergy?" but I do a lot of counter-drives, and Tenergy makes me a little nervous when countering, so I go back and forth between tacky rubber and Fastarc G-1.

    If anyone knows a tacky rubber that flies easily, please let me know.

    My main blade up until now was the Acoustic.

    People often say the Revoldia gives you the best of both wood and carbon, but what impressed me the most was the spin on shallow loops. I was genuinely surprised that I could consistently hit sharply-spinning loops at a low, shallow trajectory that I thought only wood could produce. That alone made it completely different from any carbon blade I'd used before. Light hits feel quite similar to wood.

    On hard hits, the special-material feel suddenly kicks in, and because it flies more, if you swing hard like you would with wood you'll overshoot. Also, a half-hearted swing turns into a straight, flat ball, so be conscious of clearly committing to either a soft touch or a hard hit.

    [Summary]
    Being able to loop freely and still drive the ball with stable distance even when backing off the table — I think this is exactly what Acoustic users were hoping for from the Acoustic Carbon. If you love wood-blade loops but still want more bounce, I really recommend this one.

    On the other hand, if you're after speed and attacking power, I think you'd be better off buying a ZLC blade, since it gives you a flatter, more direct ball.

    I used it on my backhand.

    Extending blocks and counters are easy to do. I never felt like I was going to miss.

    However, when I swung on my own drive, the ball sank in too much and dropped, so I gave up on that (especially hard drives against backspin tend to drop).

    I think it's good for players who have a feel for releasing the ball quickly, but players with that kind of feel would probably choose something a bit harder anyway.

    Basically, as long as your timing isn't way off, chiquita, flat hits, blocks, counters — everything goes in. Seriously, everything goes in. If you're at a decent level, even swinging carelessly, everything lands. I'd also recommend it as a step-up rubber for beginners.

    That said, the ball has almost no power at all, so you get countered easily. You need to aim for the right course.

    I'd recommend it for people like me who can't confidently swing on the backhand in matches.
