    I switched from GTT45.
    I read reviews that said it has characteristics close to light tension despite being highly elastic, and the availability of thickness variations was the deciding factor in trying it on the backhand of my penhold grip.

    Compared to GTT, I noticed from the moment I started bouncing the ball that the sheet is very smooth and doesn't grip well, so it's probably better to consider it as a highly elastic rubber as the manufacturer claims. My impression didn't change when I actually hit the ball.

    However, it's easy to lift the ball upwards by utilizing the softness that allows it to sink in, and while the amount of spin is considerably less, it still produces an arc.

    It doesn't have a tendency to fly off on its own, so control is good.

    For better or worse, the sheet is somewhat insensitive, which means you can reach for the ball without being too afraid of the spin. If you don't care about the quality of your return, it's useful for suppressing loops with a lot of spin.

    Because it's slippery, I think pushes tend to float if not done well.

    It seems good for developing the feeling of hitting the ball firmly and driving, and I'd say it's a beginner's rubber that suits plastic balls.

    I switched from Rozena.
    There were times when I felt Rozena didn't need to fly that far, but this one feels more responsive, flying exactly as much as you swing.

    Even with a flat hitting style, the ball settles nicely.

    It's easy to put spin on drives and create a good arc, but it gives the impression that even those who aren't good at putting spin can do it! I don't think the maximum spin potential is particularly high.

    Also, because it has good grip, I felt it was easier to put spin on serves.
