I used this rubber on my Yasaka Innerforce as a forehand (sometimes twiddling it to my backhand). It is very impressive with lots of carrying grip across the net. It is very fast on my backhand topspin.

I recommend this rubber for intermediate players who want to level up their games. And don’t get me started on the price; it was well worth it!

#2May 2020

This table tennis rubber ranks highly on the top 30 list, delivering exceptional spin and control.

#3February 2020

This rubber is the best! The speed is amazing, and the spin is fiery.

Speed: 10/10

Spin: 9/10

Control: 8/10

This rubber is perfect for players who want to generate a lot of spin on their shots. It is also very fast, so it is great for attacking players. However, it is not as good for players who need a lot of control over their shots.

Overall, this is a great rubber for players who want to generate a lot of spin and speed on their shots.

Yasaka Rakza 9

The Yasaka Rakza 9 is a high-speed rubber. I believe it has built-in tension. When I first tried this rubber, it didn’t perform as well as I expected for a fast rubber (I used it as my backhand rubber). But as time went on, I realized that this is the perfect rubber for a backhand dominant player who often uses backhand to loop kill. I have tested it with Tenergy 64, and while Rakza 9 may not be as fast in terms of initial speed, when you engage with more power and acceleration with perfect timing, this rubber shows its true power (good footwork is essential). Medium distance loop kills can be achieved without too much effort. As the throw angle is medium (maybe rather low), I think this rubber is more suitable for backhand, particularly for backhand dominant players who often use backhand flicks to receive attacks or use backhand to loop kill. I would definitely recommend trying this rubber.

I have Yasaka Rakza 7, 9, and X. They are excellent rubbers. I have played with other rubbers like Rhyzm-P, DHS GoldArc 8, T05, Vega Tour, Gewo Hype XT Pro 50.0, Palio Aeolus, Hadou 40+, HK1997 Gold, etc. on different blades.

One of the best rubbers (for me) is Rakza 9. My favorite blades to match with Rakza 9 are Darker Speed 90 and Butterfly Amultart. However, I recently tried Rakza 7, 9, and X with Taiwan PP Moby Kiso Hinoki (http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/index.php?cPath=24_173).

Taiwan PP used to be one of the major manufacturers for Butterfly blades before Butterfly moved its base to Mainland China. That’s how they still have some stocks for centuries-old Kiso Hinoki materials. It is genuine Kiso Hinoki, not fake products. They also carry American Cypress/Hinoki (http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/index.php?cPath=24_174), Taiwan Hinoki (http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/index.php?cPath=24_175), and have a selection of Single Ply, Multi Plies, etc.

I have tried Rakza 7, 9, and X on the PP Apollo 3-Ply (Kiso Hinoki - American Hinoki Core - Kiso Hinoki) as well. They match perfectly. However, Rakza 9 is still my favorite rubber. Thank you Yasaka for making such a great rubber.

Me sorprendió este caucho. A pesar de que uso Rasanter R47, no tiene nada que envidiarle. Permite asumir riesgos en ataques, aunque tiene un poco menos de velocidad.

Muy bueno.

#7March 2019

Excellent rubber with impressive control, spin, and power. It pairs exceptionally well with an offensive medium-stiff blade.

#8February 2019

Using a 2.0mm sponge on my Stiga Offensive Classic WRB RPB, this rubber provides great speed and spin. My RPB flicks work well with it.

Over time, the speed has decreased slightly, but the spin production capabilities remain impressive.

However, precise timing is crucial as the rubber offers little forgiveness.

Overall, this is a great rubber that I would recommend. For even greater speed, I might consider using it in maximum thickness.

#9April 2018

With the right blade, this rubber is a beast. It can handle topspins, counters, looping, pushes, flicks, and flat hits.

When paired with the Butterfly Zhang Jike SZLC blade, it becomes a monster.

#10January 2018

The sponge and rubber differ from the Rakza 7. However, it remains a good rubber for its price, comparable to Acuda.

#11December 2017

It is good for speed, but spin is lacking. The throw and spin are way too low to make good use of it on the forehand. It is more manageable on the backhand, but still has some inconsistencies. In my opinion, it is overrated.

#12December 2017

This rubber is good for building style. I used it for a short time and found it to be quite smooth and good for backhand rather than forehand. It can pick up any spin.

#13July 2017

Yasaka claims that Rakza 9 is the fastest among their Rakza range, and this rubber has lived up to that badge. With proper technique and adequate skill, this rubber can produce unreal speed and extreme power to your shots. It’s great for forehand.

I have this on Yasaka Max Carbon 3D and it is amazing. Great for looping and flat hits, the throw angle is low so your opponents can’t easily return your shots.

The sponge is medium-hard and the built quality is excellent as it was made in Germany. Highly recommended for offensive players.

#14July 2017

Very fast and low-throw rubber from Yasaka. Good spin but not less than Rakza7. Does everything just like Rakza7: serves, chops, pushes, flicks, loops, loop-drives, smashes, and touch-plays all work very well with this rubber.

Due to the speed, almost all returns land on the white-line. So a much softer play is required to keep the ball shorter. The same goes for blocking while it is possible; more control is needed from the player. For those players not satisfied with the speed of Rakza7, this rubber is the right stuff.

#15June 2017

Very fast rubber with decent spin. Not for beginners. I recommend getting a 1.8mm, as thicker rubber is too fast.

#16January 2017

I have been using this rubber for almost two years now. I can say that I love the rubber because of the different variations it can achieve. I can do variations of serves, blocks, and counter top & side spins. Lastly, I can do some side spins near and away from the table. The only thing that’s missing is the power of how it can do a chop. I think maybe it’s because it doesn’t have a tacky top sheet. As for my gameplay, I’m giving it an 8/10, with 10 being the highest rate.

#17November 2016

Good for speed, but spin is lacking. The throw and spin are way too low to make any good use of it on the forehand. It is more manageable on the backhand, although there are some inconsistencies. T64 is way better for backhand because it doesn’t throw the ball flat as often as Razzaka 9 does.

Which is why I think, due to its price, this rubber is totally not worth it. I do not agree with the ratings. A rubber must have balance, and this one is lacking a good arc. The ball flies off too flat. Speed must have spin to back it up, otherwise, there is no control, especially if it has a low throw and high speed. Spin is even more important, otherwise, there are severe limitations. At an advanced level, you can’t really do much with this rubber due to the imbalances as I mentioned.

#18October 2016

Nothing out of the ordinary. Average spin, not so spinny on serves. Fast, but I’ve seen much more faster (MX-P, S1 Turbo, Agrit Speed). Medium to medium low throw so good for looping close to the table but not so special farther from mid distance. Not forgiving, again due to low throw, so timing and footwork has to be good.

Control is very good, I’ll give it that. Good for flat hitting, but so is my 802-40 on Mystery III sponge, so again nothing that would make it stand out.

I suggest, for the same price (or cheaper) you can get many other faster and spinnier rubbers. Better stay away from this.

#19September 2016

Using this rubber for a few hours on Tibhar SPW. Previously, I had Andro Rasant and changed to Rakza9. Compared to Rasant, it feels harder, and the throw is slightly lower. The first few balls went off the table. It feels hard, but the control is surprisingly good; I wasn’t able to do very short pushes with Rasant as I can with this Rakza9. Compared to Rakza7 soft (which I have on my backhand), Rakza9 is much faster.
I may write more after playing more with this rubber.

#20March 2016

This rubber has a nice medium arc, which makes it more difficult for opponents to counter as the ball doesn’t bounce so high on the other side. The spin is monstrous, definitely comparable to Tenergies. However, the control is much better, it has a good sound, and offers a lot of gears. Looping is fantastic both close to and away from the table. Overall, a very good forehand rubber.

#21July 2015

This rubber offers a good balance of speed and spin, making it a suitable choice for players who prioritize both aspects.

#22April 2015

This rubber provides you with confidence and a sense of understanding.

Speed + Spin + Control = 9.4+9.2+9.2, indicating a well-balanced rubber that excels at high speeds. I primarily utilize it for my forehand.

After approximately six months of usage, it became noticeably softer. However, it remains a highly effective rubber, and I personally prefer the softer feel that has developed over time. I find it superior to the Tibhar Evo MXP for forehand applications.

This rubber pairs well with offensive blades. Overall, I highly recommend it.

#23December 2014

I played with Tenergy, but this is much better for me. When you play aggressively by the table, the spin is better, and the control is okay.

#24June 2014

My opinion is not “Pro.” I have played table tennis since 1986, but I have never attended a tournament. My old blade is Schilldcrott - Jean Michel Saive’s 1994 with which I’m still playing. It’s more defensive than the new Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive with Rakza 9 rubbers.

Therefore:

  1. Good control even when playing a defensive game with this offensive blade.
  2. Very good to excellent spin - it differs based on the game you’re playing at the moment.
  3. Speed is incredible:

In my combination, it’s slightly heavier than the Schilldcrott. However, this gives you better control.

At this moment, Yasaka has truly found the right combination.

#25September 2013

This is the rubber you’re looking for. It’s very speedy and spinny, and it has good control. It’s easy to serve, chop, and block with. What a great rubber! I use it on my forehand with 1.8mm thickness on my Butterfly Innerforce ZLC. It is awesome.

#26May 2013

Algo dura para mi gusto, pero con buen control. Grandiosos topspin cuando se golpea con técnica y gran velocidad en el golpe plano; tiene un sonido genial.

FH: Yasaka Rakza 9
BH: Stiga Neos Sound
Yasaka Extra Special

¡Aún funciona de maravilla tras ocho meses! ¡El giro es como nuevo!

#27May 2012

On the Butterfly Amultart, this is the perfect FH rubber, providing perfectly controlled looping and flexibility when it comes to power.

#28May 2012

My blade is BTY MMaze. Everything I say here is my own opinion and works with my technique.

Very nice rubber. Its hardness when playing with top spin is very close to Tenergy 05, but it has more linear acceleration in comparison with T05 when pushing harder, which I like a lot.

The throw angle is medium high, the trajectory is good, and it’s very stable compared with Tenergy 05 (T05 is too high sometimes). It requires good technique and fast legs.

The spin on serve is excellent - at least the same as with T05, but the rubber has a more linear ball throw which allows to vary with wrist more - I love it. When serving, it feels like a medium-hard rubber.

Chops are excellent, spinny and speedy if you want, and very controllable in the short game.

On top spin attack with high speed, the hardness is very similar to T05. Ball dwell time feels a bit lower than with T05, but it allows to vary better between spin and smash in comparison with T05, though the spin is similar to T05 when looping.

It requires good technique to lift the ball on opening loop - it’s not as forgiving as T05 on lift, but I’m not concerned about that, though taking into consideration that moment I put 9 out of 10 for that.

Opening loop if done with good technique - hand and body movement is very controllable, high-spinny, and low throw, which is very uncomfortable for an opponent. If returned by block, it’s mostly significantly higher than the net and comfortable for the next controllable powerful shot. Which is closer to Xiom Omega IV pro. So if your opponent was not able to counterloop, you will have a very good advantage.

Counterlooping is nice close to the table or far.

I found that this rubber requires a good push into the blade - so mostly it will work nicely on Forehand. On Backhand, I would choose something softer with a bit higher throw.

#29April 2012

Top sheet and sponge hardness are comparable to T05, but it requires more effort to generate speed than T05.

The sponge texture is similar to Andro Hexer.

Control is better than T05, but it’s not as springy.

The throw angle is lower than T05.

Looping is awesome, whether close to or away from the table. High, short, and spinny loops are also easy to generate.

Spinny serves are also easy to generate, whether it’s a high or low toss.

Overall, this is a very good forehand rubber.

Weight: When cut to an 89g M Jun pair with Rakza 7, it weighs 183g.

#30Long Time Ago...

Best rubber you can find. Awesome grip. Easy to spin. Terrific FH weapon but also excellent in BH. Medium to low throw. Very controllable while the speed. Excellent in all types of strokes: block, drive, top spin, and even chopping is relatively easy. Push can be managed also if you take care of the relatively high bounciness. Serves are full of spin. Not sensitive to opponent spin. Gives excellent results with flexible blades. Paired perfectly with soft outer layer off- blades such as Virtuoso off-.

#31Long Time Ago...

It is my current FH rubber. I use it on BTY Balsa Carbo X5 22.

It is a very spinny rubber with good speed and enough control.

As for speed, it is fast enough in close-to-table and mid-to-table zones.

As for spin, it is very spinny. It provides good spin on serves, very good spin in loops, and enough spin in top spins to counter top spins.

As for loops, opponents have problems returning it onto the table. Most of the time it is going out of the table. You can easily do high and slow, very spinny loops or fast and low loops.

Backspins and pushes are very comfortable and controllable. The ball is not tending to go away from the table on a fast backspin return, as it is on some other tensor rubbers.

Serves: You can easily do fast “Waldner” serves, as well as short spinny serves.

However, one thing you should do for sure is improve your footwork and technique. In the plastic ball era, you have to work on your footwork. You can’t just rely on the speed, spin, or control of the blade/rubber as it was before the plastic ball.

When I started to work on my legs, I realized the potential of Rakza family rubbers.

#32May 2024

Very good for players of every level. Best used on the forehand.

#33December 2023

Good speed and control.

#34March 2020

Хороший товар, очень похож на Tg 05.

#35February 2020

Rakza 9 is an extremely good rubber if you are upgrading from Mark V.

#36September 2019

Good
The rubber seems very good for my backhand, it is forgiving to the point that the shots that go long spin and hit the table, I think it lacks more power, I will try the MAX version.

#37August 2019

Uma borracha nem muito macia nem muito dura, com médio giro e velocidade na medida certa.

#38May 2019

Uma borracha nem muito macia nem muito dura, com média de giro e velocidade na medida certa.

#39May 2019

I have a diverse playing style (50-50 split between loops/chops) using an offensive blade. The Rakza 9 excels at attack with excellent spin, speed, and control for looping, flicks, bananas, etc. On chops, it generates very heavy downspin but can also produce no spin. The only weak point is that the surface seems to wear quickly (100-120 hours of play), although it is still pretty effective, even when it looks worn. The edges do crumble at the end of its life as well (similar to Tenergy).

#40September 2018

After playing with Rakza 7, which is a medium to high throw rubber, I decided to try Rakza 9. It has superb characteristics for the short game, is insensitive to incoming spin, has almost the same spin as Rakza 7, and thunder-like speed. Because of its medium to low throw, it is recommended on high throw blades.

#41August 2018

Fast, spinny, and precise rubber. Requires good footwork, not for players who rely solely on their hands.

#42May 2018

Good.

#43April 2018

If you are more of a flat hitter, then I do recommend this rubber. I decided to change my FH rubber to this because I have long arms and by putting a fast rubber like this, it can make a difference for me to adjust on an attacking stroke (short flat strokes).

#44April 2018

Современная тензорная накладка - быстрая с хорошим контролем и вращением. Похожа на Xiom Vega Pro, но чуть быстрее. Пропитана бустером на заводе.

#45December 2017

Very good.

#46November 2017

Totally justified in its ratings of speed and the number one choice for me on the forehand.

#47October 2017

Good product as described.

#48October 2017

Queda muy bien en mis dos maderos, Nittaku y DHS.

#49August 2017

Hard and fast.

#50August 2017

Decent backhand rubber, with a rather low throw allowing for good blocks.
Rubber isn’t too fast but definitely not slow; I’d call it manageable.
Service returns are good, not too sensitive to spin, but I do find it quite difficult to open up.

#51June 2017

Excelente! Recomendo.

#52June 2017

Yasaka claims that Rakza 9 is the fastest among their Rakza range and this rubber has lived up to that badge.

Highly recommended for offensive players.

#53June 2017

It is a very good rubber for feeling, repulsion, and control, though it is not flexible.

#54May 2017

Great rubber with lots of control and speed. I highly recommend it.

#55May 2017

Good spin and very fast.

#56March 2017

Currently using it for my backhand. It is so good that I can do any stroke with it.

#57March 2017

All around dependable rubber for speed, spin, and control. The only thing I don’t like is it’s a bit heavy, 47-49 grams after cutting. Can’t use both R 9 on both sides of the blade unless your blade is under 85 grams.

#58February 2017

Durable, fast, and spinny. Great product. Table Tennis 11 made it affordable. I am happy.

#59December 2016

Just as its description, R9 is more bouncy and speedy than R7 but has a slightly harder surface feel. I put R9 on FH and R7 on BH and they perform well. The only disadvantage is that R9 is heavier, about 47g after cutting.

#60November 2016

Very good.

#61July 2016

Good rubber, slightly better than Tibhar Evolution MX-S, but I have no idea how these upper-class rubbers get the ratings they do!!

#62May 2016

Great spin! And very fast.

#63May 2016

The Rakza 9 is a great quality rubber that has good speed, spin, and control to enjoy. I use it for both backhand and forehand, which sometimes confuses my opponent. It does a fantastic job close to the table and at mid-distance too. This treasure should not be ignored by any level of player.

#64May 2016

Nice rubber.

#65April 2016

I play with it on the BH. Very good control and spin. Especially good for backhand brushing or topspin. Easy for flips as well.

#66April 2016

I like soft rubber rather than hard. It’s very spinny and has good speed. I like this rubber so far.

#67January 2016

Loops and drives well.

#68January 2016

That is a great rubber. It is very soft, and I like it.

#69August 2014

Very good.

#70May 2014

Really hard to fail at topspin using this rubber, excellent spin and control.

#71May 2014

This is my best rubber, with no competitor at all.

#72April 2014

Loved the Rakza 7, and just as much the Rakza 9! Pretty hard rubber with amazing spin and feel. The ball dents on the table on the opponent’s side, when you thought it went out. You simply can’t miss this!

Speed 95/100
Spin 95/100.

#73January 2014

This rubber is good, hands down. I’m using 1.8mm as my backhand rubber. Sometimes I turn my bat and use it as forehand, and it smashes well and serves well. Price-wise, it’s still quite expensive compared to Chinese rubbers which can produce an almost equal quality play.

#74November 2013

Review text:

Rakza 9 is a good rubber suitable for blocking very fast with your backhand. It is too fast for the forehand in my opinion. It is spinny and very elastic. It’s easy to play in middle distance as well. It’s hard -about 46º. Rakza 7 has a low arc. However, Rakza 9 has a higher arc but it’s harder.
There are different topsheets.

#75October 2013

Great rubber. Pricey, but worth it. Great speed, spin, and control.

#76October 2024

I do not care for the large-pore sponge that much. TT11 always provides excellent service.

#77June 2024

This is the best rubber for my offensive playing style. Very good feeling, control, and speed. It’s very dynamic and alive.

#78November 2023

Good rubber like Rakza 7 but faster.

#79October 2023

This rubber is fast and direct with little dwell time on the rubber. Pushes and loops are spinny but also very fast. Not the spiniest rubber from Yasaka, but most definitely the fastest. I use this rubber on my backhand and love it. The only complaint I have about this rubber is that it is not hard enough. If Yasaka ever made a harder version of this, I would try it and probably like it more than this current version.

#80August 2023

I’m not able to find the difference between this and Rakza 7. Maybe that’s just my level. Spinny, but sometimes the ball squeaks on contact and dies into the net.

#81May 2023

I initially got some weird results out of this rubber on an ALC-like blade (it was very sensitive to how you contacted the ball which would sometimes slip for no good reason, a behavior which no other rubber exhibited on that blade), but then I put it on a stiff Tibhar Fortino Performance blade and it’s a match made in heaven.

The throw angle is quite low, which might put off some players, but let me tell you: it’s exactly what you want for your FH. With the correct technique, you can hit some really fast spiny shots that really seem to stick to the table after contact… very hard to return. Also good for serves but also requires good technique.

Also initially I didn’t really like it for my BH, but after improving my technique and giving it another try a year later I’m really beginning to dig it, so much that I consider switching to it as well.

It’s definitely harder to play it on the BH, but it’s a skill issue, nothing wrong with the rubber itself… and I had the same feeling about it on the FH in the beginning as well, so it might be worth a serious try.

For the price, it’s a great value for an intermediate player. The performance ceiling is high but it also demands you to learn how to play with it, which I think is great.

#82November 2022

Вращение и контроль на хорошем уровне.

#83October 2022

Excellent!

#84July 2022

This is a good rubber for beginner to intermediate players. It lacks spin. I’d prefer Nittaku Fastarc G-1 to use than this.

#85May 2022

Bought this rubber after reading that it’s the “budget Tenergy,” and I have to say that even though I have not owned a Tenergy 05 rubber (but tried it though), this rubber was a bit fast for me at the beginning. It’s very springy, so if you just block the hits a bit flat, the ball will fly out of the table, but after adapting the bat’s angle, counterattacks are so fast with little effort. It’s also great for flat shots and topspin. I wouldn’t recommend this rubber to beginners because it’s a bit unforgiving. If you hit a shot with enough conviction and technique, it’s likely to go out, but in good hands, this rubber is a beast.

#86April 2021

Overall, it is good for looping and blocking.

#87March 2021

My setup is Yasaka Dynamix 17, Rakza 9 FH, Rakza X BH.
Perfect. Can do anything, with great spin and speed, high durability, rubbers keep their efficiency for a long time.
Not for beginners who need more control and slower equipment to improve different skills.

#88December 2020

The best ever.

#89October 2020

Yasaka Rakza 9 has been the best alternative for me at a more reasonable price compared to Butterfly Tenergy rubbers. Their Japanese-German origin makes them very reliable and of good quality. All my paddle upgrades use the Rakza line.

#90July 2020

Very good offensive.

#91March 2020

I am very happy with that rubber for my backhand.
I had a Rakza 7 Soft and changed to this fastest rubber ever, it is really awesome. Not as spinny as the Rakza X as I have understood but for a very fast loop or good chops this is definitely the rubber you need.

#92February 2020

Быстрая, цепкая, просто класс!

#93July 2019

It is okay. I prefer small porous holes better.

#94April 2019

Flat and low throw. Suitable for backhand for blocking more than spinning.

#95August 2018

If you are an offensive player and have very good control but need more power, this is a very good rubber.
My experience shows that you need to apply more brush on almost every ball, which makes it difficult to control but definitely makes you a very good offensive player after you develop the skill.

#96June 2017

In the first place, I am writing for those who are going to purchase this rubber, the opinion is purely subjective. Let’s start with the parameters: Speed: quite fast (but not all that simple) Top sheet grip: good but not ideal for a completely non-sticky rubber. Hardness: hard Spin: strong Durability: excellent And of course, control: very deceptive, as it can vary (by type) and I don’t know what you’re thinking about right now. It was glued to a long 3. And so the control, the most important parameter, which results from the combination of rubber control + wood. Due to the fact that the sponge is hard, linear, i.e. it engages immediately (but you have to press to engage), it is very easy for it to make a hit, everything just flies into the table. With a flat hit it’s normal, blocking is good. Everything would be good if it weren’t for the active control, slightly off angle on a topspin or topspin to the bottom - it goes off the table. It’s difficult to catch a slow ball with just a topsheet, and there’s little point, the sponge won’t engage due to its hardness, the spin is weak… Conclusion: this is a rather difficult rubber to play with, maybe it excels in something compared to the same Tenergy, but think about whether you can control it. Maybe it’s not the right foundation… although unlikely, because I find it much easier to play with Acuda S1T on the right, and it’s slightly faster than T64.

#97April 2017

This product is just what you expect from table tennis shorts to be. Elastic, light, made from high-quality materials, not expensive at all!
There are no pockets, but other than that, it’s perfect.

#98April 2017

Good rubber for my backhand. I am using it on my Primorac Carbon.

#99April 2017

Grippy and bouncy, but a bit heavy.

#100March 2017

I expected to get a FH rubber, but it’s too soft. Nice for BH.

#101March 2017

Need a good technique. It’s fast and has decent spin to it. Recommended for attacking players who play from a mid-distance.

#102March 2017

Com esta borracha, o meu jogo dispara em controle, rotação e muita velocidade… recomendo.

#103March 2017

Com essa borracha, o meu jogo dispara em controle, rotação e muita velocidade. Recomendo.

#104February 2017

Great product and service. Durable, fast, and spinny. Great product. Table Tennis 11 made it affordable. I am happy.

#105June 2016

Soft rubber and good spin. You can enjoy your play using this rubber.

#106April 2016

Excellent rubber. I am satisfied with the speed and spin.

#107September 2015

On the backhand, excellent control, sufficient speed, and spin.

#108July 2015

Very good.

#109May 2015

Non-tacky, nice speed and spin, good control. Good for looping, chopping, and smashing. Overall, good.

#110March 2015

Good.

Very good rubber, fast and controlled the ball for defending.
Overall, very superb rubber.

#112October 2014

Spin and excellent control.

Very good.

Ótima borracha. Rápida e com bastante efeito. Envio rápido, mas devido a problemas burocráticos em nosso país (Brasil), a entrega demorou.

Fast and spinny! A little bit heavy - 73 gr. uncut for maximum thickness and 71 gr. for 2.0mm.

Very spinny; I recommend it.

A good rubber with a lot of spin, but gets mushy if you use booster on it. So it’s better not to use boost on the sensitive sponge.

I have been a Yasaka user for years, and this R9 is a new feeling for me, but still a very good rubber from Yasaka.

As the title says, this rubber has very much spin. Good for top spins and side-spin attacks. Aggressive players would really love having this.
