    - Hard
    - Insane speed, extremely linear
    - The extension after hitting the table is crazy
    - Strong grip from the sheet, stable in the short game

    "A rubber with more power than its price suggests. If you can master it, it's top-tier, but if you can't handle the hardness, it just churns out flat, dead balls."

    The number one issue is that the hardness varies a lot depending on the blade you put it on. If you put it on a typical special-material inner-fiber blade (like Inner ALC), it feels quite hard.

    On the other hand, if you put it on a blade made of softer material and hit it with a grazing, brushing motion as if hitting into it, you get a real sense of the ball gripping, and you can produce nasty shots with fast spin. (With a hard blade, the ball flies off before it grips.)

    Also, as you can tell from hitting into the ball while brushing it a little at the same time, even though it's a tension rubber, the ideal way to use it seems to be closer to how you'd hit with a slightly tacky rubber.

    Overall, its performance rivals the top rubbers from certain well-known brands, with high overall ability and a long lifespan. For a user who can master it, it's worth sticking with for the long haul. At this price point, the performance is outstanding.

    Put it on a somewhat soft blade that grips the ball well.

    Perfect for the backhand side. The automatic feel is incredible.

    Good points
    - Easy to put spin on, and even flat hits pick up spin automatically
    - Pushes bite in savagely, letting you drop the ball right off the opponent's blade
    - Works fine whether you brush it or hit it flat
    - Ball holding is excellent, making all kinds of techniques easy
    - Usable even away from the table if you hit it firmly
    - Great value for money given the performance

    Minor drawbacks
    - Rises up if you take an unexpected hit
    - Blocks tend to float a bit (slightly arcing)

    The first thing I noticed was "it just goes in on its own."
    Tenergy had some of that quality too, but this one is even stronger. Another strength is that it goes in even with forced, awkward strokes. (Even a wild, swinging backhand drive or a desperate reverse chiquita tends to go in even if it's a bit sloppy.)

    It's a rubber with tremendously high overall usability.

    I bought this looking for a soft rubber for the backhand.

    Even at max thickness, the bounce doesn't send the ball flying too much. It suits special (composite) blades. With a low-bounce 5-ply wood blade, I think the bounce might feel a little lacking.

    Handling: excellent
    Ease of adding spin: excellent
    Maximum spin: excellent (for how hard it is)

    Overall there's no technique that feels hard to do - chiquita and backhand drives lift easily without the ball dropping. Even in the short game, the ball doesn't float in a weird way; you can really feel the outstanding grip and strength of the sheet whether you're stopping the spin dead or brushing it with a flick.

    On the flip side, the performance is almost too good, and there's a sensitive side to it - if you don't actively cut into the ball yourself on a receive, just meeting it flat means you take the full effect of the opponent's spin straight through the sheet.

    When blocking, though, the sponge seems to cushion that - it feels like the sponge wraps around and absorbs the spin, then reapplies your own spin onto the ball.

    If anything, I'd say this is a rubber that skilled players looking for an all-round rubber would buy. If you can master it, there's no doubt it's a top-tier rubber.

    It's a masterpiece rubber with excellent overall performance.

    Compared to Dignics 09c
    ・The topsheet is softer and easier to use
    ・Serves come out short and low more easily
    ・Countering is less demanding
    ・Backspin balls are easier to handle (though not necessarily easier to hit with power)
    These are clearly strong points. Overall the performance is well-rounded too, with every technique performing at a fairly high level.

    On the other hand,
    ・On average and overall, the 09c is better
    ・It's harder to generate speed when attacking on your own initiative
    (it takes a bit of a knack to get max power out of it)
    ・There are a few areas where it falls short of the 09c in the performance you'd actually want
    and in some respects it really does feel priced accordingly.

    My personal take is that it sits right around its price point, maybe slightly above, and could fairly be called a budget 09c.

    Also, it doesn't pair well with soft blades.
    The sponge is on the harder side while the topsheet is soft, so when matched with a soft blade the sponge ends up feeling oddly hard, which affects the feel of the ball. There were also cases where, if I tried to generate spin using just the topsheet, the ball would dig unexpectedly into the sponge and shoot out.

    It seems to suit special-material inner/outer blades well.
    (Harder to match with wood-based blades)
