Review of Donic Bluestorm Z2

Due to the 2.3mm sponge, this rubber delivers very spongy feeling upon ball contact. Sponge 47.5 degree combined with slight soft top-sheet and thin, sparse pimples prolongs the dwell time. This also helps to increase the feeling, thus topspin very easy to be executed.
I fell in love right after playing couple shots on Boll ALC. Very easy feeling to serve and top spin.
For pushing and short games, its performance is so-so, nothing special.
Weight: ~48 gram cut. Quite light for modern rubber. Durability: shall be updated (just playing it for 10 days); expected: 2-3 months on daily use basis.

Review of Nittaku Fastarc S-1

Excellent product from Nittaku, as usual. Quite Slow but spinny, control is superb. On 7ply wood blade, its super easy to lift backspin ball (used on backhand). But due to soft sponge, quick backhand rally suffers from slow, low-force ball (like balls from short-pips or Chinese Rubber), so it needs some time to change the technique.

In sum, fully satisfied, 9.5/10 for backhand rubber score.

Review of Xiom Vega Asia

Surprisingly good for BH. Not very fast for plastic ball, speed is above average. The pimple strucuture is not as dense as Vegag Pro/ Tenergy 05, so the weight is significantly reduced, and much easier to "catch" the ball at by the softer topsheet. Therefore it's easier to spin the ball, but not as spinny as Vega Pro or Ternergy 05.

Blocking is very good, low sensitivity to incoming spin, very easy to do BH flick, very easy to block strong lop drive. I wish I know this rubber earlier, can save tons of money for something such as Tenergy 64.
