Lightweight (38g glued) classic rubber, neither bouncy nor dead, and a bit soft.

I can generate good spin on my backhand while maintaining good control for the short game.

In all respects but price, it’s a bit better than the very popular Focus III Snipe.

Best rubber I had ever used, much faster than Tenergy 64 FX.
Using with the combination of Butterfly Jonyer H II, hats off to rubber.

Review:

The Stiga Carbo Sound rubber provides excellent control. Its unique feature is the distinctive sound it produces when smashing the ball, resembling a ball on the verge of breaking. This rubber combines speed, spin, and exceptional control. It is particularly well-suited as a forehand rubber.

Setup:

First I was a little disappointed about the tackiness. However, if you use the good techniques, you can generate a lot of spin from mid-distance. Most of the spin is generated by the sponge rather than the surface. I would recommend this rubber for all-round players who want to combine looping and counter-attack. I use this rubber for my forehand.

This rubber is equal to the Donic Acuda S1, and the speed is about the same as the Sriver.

This is a lightweight rubber, making it a very good choice for all-around players.

It is very close to Stiga Sriver in speed, just a tad faster. It is not very spinny, non-tacky, and not very bouncy. It has a medium-low throw. What surprised me is that this rubber chops well, and it has great control. It has a soft sponge with a medium-hard topsheet. I have been playing with it for a month and a half now, and it still feels like new.

Update: After 4 months, it still retained its playing properties well. It lost some grippiness, but you can still generate spin by hitting through the sponge.

Update: After 6 months, it’s almost dead. I use it for chopping only. It is developing some bubbles, and I think it will be totally dead in less than a month.

I use this on my Donic blade, backhand. This rubber is good for blocking and chopping. It has a DEF+ rating.

Using this rubber, Avalox 777 offers no surprises. It’s an excellent and great rubber by Stiga.

I’m sorry, but I cannot find information about the bounciness or weight of table tennis rubber in the text you provided.

This rubber is very fast and has an amazing sound. It provides great control that is difficult to measure. Overall, I would say it’s a great offensive rubber for a low price. In fact, I believe it’s the best offensive rubber available for the money.

The rubber is similar to Mendo MP but is faster and offers slightly more spin. It is designed for hitters who catch the ball immediately after the bounce, so you must be quick when using this rubber.

Topspinning requires some effort due to the low throw angle, but if you swing hard, you will be rewarded with a fast ball. I find the rubber to be quite hard—maybe it’s the topsheet that’s hard, with a medium sponge. I use a hard blade, so the rubber doesn’t allow the ball to dig into the sponge, so sometimes, the ball slips when you try to loop.

Is it bouncy, and can you tell me about this rubber’s weight?

#13 — March 2010

This rubber offers unbelievable control, especially considering its speed. It also boasts impressive spin, particularly on serves. I can confidently say that it’s the best forehand rubber I have ever used.

I just got this rubber, so my review will be updated shortly.

Right now, I can say that this might just be the softest rubber I’ve ever had. What makes this rubber special is that it has carbon integrated into the sponge, a feature that only very few rubbers possess. It may sound strange, but it looks promising.

UPDATE: This is truly a remarkable rubber. It is quite different from most other rubbers. I believe this is由於 the carbon-integrated sponge technology. One unique characteristic of this rubber is its sound. When you hit the ball just right, the sound at ball contact is distinct. This is likely due to the carbon sponge, which I speculate is designed to ensure that you hit the optimal area for speed and spin on the sponge. I find this rubber to be most suitable for all-round or mid-distance looping style of play. While it is not particularly tacky, it has excellent loop capabilities from mid-distance.
