I bought this rubber a few weeks ago, and I must say it is very fast. In fact, it is too fast for me.

Moving forward with it is okay; I can loop or topspin quite comfortably, and the spinny serves are also very good. However, I am having trouble with blocking and smashing the ball, which are big parts of my game.

I find the whole experience rather frustrating, and I will be changing to other rubbers very soon.

This rubber taught me how to loop. It has an extremely impressive amount of grip, despite being non-tacky and very hard. The ball seems to sink into the rubber and just stay there.

Offensive strokes feel like you’re dragging the ball the whole way. While the rubber is very fast, it feels like there is little to no catapult effect; slow swings produce slow balls, unlike most tension rubbers where the ball sometimes seems to rocket off.

My main gripe with this rubber is that it is comparatively more difficult to produce heavy pushes and serves. You need very high acceleration and very thin contact to achieve the desired effect. Because of this, I would definitely not recommend this rubber for beginners.

All the same, it is an absolute joy to play with and can be deadly in the right hands.

This rubber is not recommended for beginners. It is fast and requires a solid technique, skills, and a good touch. No mistakes can be forgiven. While it is not very sensitive to incoming spins, there is sufficient tackiness to produce a good amount of spin.

The beauty of this rubber is most evident during the third ball attack, whether on forehands or backhands, and executing these shots is always easy. The control offered is acceptable, instilling confidence during receives and blocks. Counterattacking is another fantastic feature of this rubber. Even hitting the ball before it has a chance to rise is comfortable and enjoyable.

I have it paired with my DHS Fang Bo B2 blade, which provides good feel, flexibility, and speed. Before this, I used MXP for both forehand and backhand on my blade. This rubber feels much faster than MXP, with an almost similar throw angle. I definitely want to keep this combination and recommend it to anyone who prefers less dwell time and the speed of a rocket.

Plays like an Omega 5 Tour on steroids. It is good, but I recommend playing with Nittaku Fastarc G1 or Yasaka’s Rakza Z instead.

This rubber is among the most sold in the world, as evidenced by the rankings found at https://world-tt.com/ps_goods/goods_ranking.php. In Asia, every major store stocks it. Interestingly, there are many table tennis players in the region, and the market is dominated by brands such as Nittaku, Yasaka, Butterfly, and TSP/VICTAS. However, there is minimal presence from brands like Andro, Tibhar, Joola, and Stiga, with most sales being domestic.

This hard rubber offers the speed of a rocket while remaining controllable. The spin is fantastic for my playing style, making it ideal for attackers.

I primarily play from close to mid-distance, and I find that I can execute compact, spinny strokes with ease. Additionally, the blocking capability is impressive as well.

When comparing this rubber to the DHS rubbers I often used, I notice that it delivers similar results, but with a more compact stroke.

I apologize for my poor English, but I wanted to share my experience with this rubber.

The rubber is exceptionally fast; some may even argue that it’s too fast. In fact, it’s faster than Lightning McQueen and Sonic the Hedgehog!

While it offers decent spin, it also has relatively low control. Nevertheless, it serves as a good alternative to Tenergy 05. However, it is not recommended for beginners.

Spin and speed are good. However, the only drawback is its lack of control.

#8September 2019

This rubber is simply amazing! However, it is not recommended for beginners.

I glued it on a Stiga Clipper CR WRB, and the touch, control, and backhand (BH) loops are just awesome. I initially had some difficulty blocking fast, spinny drives, but it gets better once you are used to it.

The serves, open-ups, and chops are very spinny and fast, requiring a good sense of feel to keep the ball short during touch play.

Overall, this is a great rubber that fits my playing style perfectly.

I use this rubber with the Andro Hexer Grip SFX and a Hurricane King 2 blade. The combination works exceptionally well together, providing excellent control and spin. The rubber offers a good balance between speed and spin, which enhances my overall performance on the table. I highly recommend this setup for players looking to improve their game.

You will find the rubber works easily on whatever you want; it’s a great rubber.

#11November 2023

Good for speed for offensive players.

#12June 2023

This rubber is a little heavy, but the speed and spin are outstanding. Furthermore, this rubber is not suitable for beginners or intermediate level players.

#13September 2022

Consistent, powerful, spinny. On the backhand, this rubber really shines with short strokes and a consistent level of feel and control despite being quite fast. After trying most of the Omega line, the Omega 7 Tour is just a cut above the rest as far as backhand rubbers go.

Definitely a rubber that suits the new trend of table tennis. The spin created on the current ball types is really good. It is a fast rubber as well, but due to the sponge hardness, controlling close to the net is not that difficult. It’s great for attackers, but I won’t recommend it for players who are not technically sound yet.

#16June 2020

Very fast rubber. Spin on fast loops is decent, but the ball tends to slip through with brush loops.

#17August 2019

I love this rubber. It’s better than the Tenergy to me.

Speed, spin, and control are on point. Playing with the rubber is comfortable even at my amateur level. I use it on a fast, medium-hard Koki Niva blade (on both sides). As a result, it is a very powerful yet well-controlled setup. Due to the high ball rebound speed, the curve of the ball is usually quite low on average, although with that, the ball can be given very strong topspin or sidespin and the accuracy of hitting (control) is at a good level. Strong chop shots, especially in the close range, are quite difficult to execute with any fast rubber. The only significant drawback is the weight. The red and black rubbers, both 2.0mm thick and cut to fit a standard blade, weigh 47 and 50 grams respectively. However, on the other hand, due to the high density (hardness) of the sponge, the overall racket has the most linear characteristics, good “feel for the ball,” and spin capability. The price of the rubber is certainly not small, but I bought it on sale at the beginning of the sale.

Not good. I used Haifu, but it was not good.

#20March 2019

Mais difícil de acertar os golpes do que a VII Pro. O efeito/catapulta é quase o mesmo, ou seja, achei a Pro melhor!
