Review of Kokutaku Blutenkirsche 868 TokyoA bit slow but very spinny. The surface is quite tacky, which gives a lot of confidence when making loops and topspins. Mounted on an XVT Black Knight 7 blade, it can generate good speed when the necessary force is applied. I'm also testing a Kokutaku 730 (not yet approved by the ITTF) on this blade, and it turns out to be excellent. I also have a Donic Bluestorm Z1 Turbo, and it feels the same (Donic fans, please forgive me). This Kokutaku 730 is really very fast and has a lot of spin; I hope it gets ITTF approval soon.

Review of Kokutaku Tokyo 730A spectacular rubber! Extremely fun, fast, and spinny, plus it comes in various colors if you like that option. It's not yet approved by the ITTF (we hope it will be soon), but it's a fantastic rubber. I have a Donic Bluestorm Z1 Turbo, and it feels very similar on the table (Donic fans, please forgive me). I have it mounted on an XVT Black Knight 7 blade, and it's really fast with excellent control—truly impressive what Kokutaku is doing.

Review of Kokutaku 868Simply great rubber. It feels like chinese expensive rubber or even better. Great for spinny shots with a very good speed.

Review of Reactor Tornado V5I simply love this rubber. It's capable of generating a lot of spin on serves and topspins. The one I bought comes pre-boosted, so it's relatively fast. I mounted it on a Donic Waldner Ultra Senso Carbon blade, and it feels fast enough for high-speed attacks.
