Overall, the spin performance is lacking. While the rubber is fast, it doesn’t reach the level of speed that I was expecting. Additionally, durability is a concern.

This is my first forehand rubber. It is an overall excellent rubber. I have found it to be very versatile and suitable for various playing styles. The grip is fantastic, allowing for precise shots and effective spins. Additionally, the speed is impressive, making it easier to execute powerful forehand strokes.

Overall, I’m very satisfied with my choice and would recommend it to players looking for a reliable forehand rubber.

#3 — May 2010

Overall, I agree with the previous post. This rubber is not effective for generating spin, and the loops are quite disappointing.

However, it does offer very good control during defensive play, particularly when executing pushes, which are well-controlled.

Additionally, it has a bit of speed to it.

Overall, it’s a strangely mixed rubber with low durability. While it isn’t fragile, it does lose its spin capability relatively quickly.
