I bought this for my middle-school son after seeing Yuu-san's review.
We transferred the rubber he'd already been using onto it.
When I hit forehand drives against him, at first he was overshooting because the ball flew too much, but once he got used to it, his drive speed, power, and spin all clearly went up, and it got a lot harder to block too.
Also, thanks to the large sweet spot, not only did his stability improve, but his connecting shots became more stable while also gaining power — it was great all around.
His previous blade was the Mace Performance, and with that one he tended to rely on arm strength for stronger shots, which threw off his swing and balance. But with the Solid Pro, relying on arm strength just leads to overshooting, so he ended up learning to swing in a more balanced way while gaining power from the blade itself — a nice two-birds-one-stone result.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

As for the short game, it stops dead on both forehand and backhand, is easy to control, and you can place the ball exactly where you're aiming, plus it bites really well.
It's true that things get tough once you move away from the table, but if you're playing close to the table, receiving is so easy that you can basically just get your racket on the ball and it's fine even with sloppy technique.
This also depends on your stroke, but it's a rubber I'd like people who prefer a low trajectory to try.
However, in my case, within a week the feel of the rubber went from rock-hard to mushy-soft, and I could no longer play around with the tackiness (sob)Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I used this on my backhand.
I thought it might be ideal for developing the feel of really committing to a full swing while putting spin on the ball.
It's light, so whether on forehand or backhand, close to the table with drives or flat hits, I think it's totally fine for a player who fires off shots one after another. But once you back away from the table, it doesn't produce enough power, so you end up just rallying to keep the ball in play, which naturally gets tough.If you accept it as a rubber built for holding your ground close to mid-distance and winning through stability, I think it becomes a pretty appealing rubber.

I used this on my forehand.
My impression: serves got more spin than with Rozena, but topspin drives felt about the same, maybe even a bit lacking — Rozena seemed to push the ball forward more, so I wondered if it had more power.
There isn't much power once you step back from the table, but the stability — landing on the table even on a full swing — was satisfying.Also, on receives, it seemed to have a good kind of insensitivity to spin, which made returning easier.

I'm using the UM thickness on my backhand.
At first I was surprised by how fast the ball came off it, but now I'm satisfied with how easy it is to block and how sharp the ball is when I counter.
It's satisfying to hit forehand with too, but rising-ball drives were a bit tough.
Instead, meet shots are easy to hit, and especially when I drop back on the backhand side and hit a meet-style drive, the ball gets really nasty, so it's fun to hit with.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
