    This feels like an early-generation tension rubber, era-wise. It makes a nice metallic sound when you hit a topspin drive. The trajectory is flat and direct, like modern speed-oriented tension rubbers. It felt like a toned-down Bryce Hi-Speed with more control added. If it's your first tension rubber, the Extend version is a better choice. There are differences between the Japanese and German-made versions, but in terms of rubber lineage, it feels similar to VICTAS's V>01.

    This is a fairly soft rubber. It's not super fast, but if you hit it properly you can get a decent ball out of it. Same goes for spin. Both the topsheet and sponge are on the soft side, so you do lose some energy here and there. I'd put it in the same category as the GTT series or Rigan series. Blocking and driving feel great because the ball sinks right into the sponge. That said, techniques such as the choli-drive that rely on brushing the ball suffer a bit. Can't really be helped.

    This is a tacky tension rubber (though a tension rubber that feels like a tacky rubber — the feel is different, you know?). The speed is on the slow side. The sponge doesn't have much bounce.
    As for spin, it's top-notch among tension rubbers used as a second or third rubber (the light-tension type). It doesn't fly much and produces a good arc, so it's rock solid in the short game. Chiquita in particular works really well. The sideways chiquita especially — you're like, "does it really curve that much?" The upward chiquita (speed chiquita) does drop off though.
    Good for beginners. Intermediate players can use it too.
    The lifespan is on the short side. The sheet wears out easily.

    Basically it doesn't have much bounce.
    Being an old-school 5-ply, it's pretty "poko-poko." Pairing it with a harder rubber probably helps some. It's soft and flexes a lot, so it pairs really well with a harder tacky rubber.
    The ball-holding is good, so the feeling of confidence when driving is amazing.
    I'd say it's way better than other companies' 5-ply blades.
    It's not just a step-up blade - I think you could use it right up until just before advanced level.

    Bounces quite a lot. When you just knock the ball flat, you get really nice shots. I had the image that Vega's high-end models are on the harder side, but this one is surprisingly soft.
