Review of Butterfly Tenergy 19

Woooah! What a fantastic rubber! Dwell time so long. Spin so crazy. Good speed but not too much, significantly less than super fast rubbers such as mx-p, but just a notch behind t05. Control is enormous. Well executed loops give you a lot satisfaction/pleasure so much the ball sings into the rubber before poping up with tons of spin. Easy counter top spins, great blocs, pushes and very spinny chop stokes. Feels medium hard, just a noch less hard than t05. A lot more easier to play than other rubbers in the same speed & spin range (t05, mx-p, bluefire m2 ...). Highly recommended to intermediate players or even beginners. Just a default, the price too high :-(

Review of Stiga Genesis II M

Excellent rubber for control and spin. Not a lot of speed but awsome control and spin at serve, loop and chop. Also very easy in the short game. Perfect pairing on stiff blade as Stiga Infinity VPS V or better again on Eternity VPS V. Highly recommended for anyone who does not focus on speed but want maximum control with excellent spin.

Review of Victas V > 01 Stiff

A lot heavier than noted 4.0. Paired a max red FH & a 2.0 black BH on a 84g Yasaka Ma Lin Max Carbon, total weight 189g. Just before, I had on the same blade 2 Yasaka Mark V HPS max red FH & 2.0 black BH but only 174g total weigth, with the same number of glue layers. 15 g heavier, I can't believe it.
Spin is good but also a lot less than Mark V HPS, you have to engage a lot more the sponge to get high spin but resulting often out of the table, this is true for topspin attack but also for aggressive pushes and short game in general. So, as less easier to get spin, but also with more catapult, control is for me a less than average note. Consistency and durability seems good.
Not tried on another blade than Ma Lin Max Carbon, but with this blade and I think in general with inner carbon blades, it is not a super rubber but only an average one. Mark V HPS, with its softer top sheet is a lot lighter and significantly better than this rubber.

Review of Yasaka Mark V HPS

Offensive rubber with excellent spin and control. Very good grip if you brush the ball adequately. Medium throw angle, less than all Rakza serie rubbers. Excellent in powerfull top spin with a low angle rasing the net. Very good also in the short game, plenty of control. Easy spinny serves. And more, it has a very light weight, lightens significantly the total weight of your paddle if you use it on both sides FH & BH, allowing you to pair them with an heavier blade.
The only weakness I see is the durability of the top sheet which quickly wears out under heavy top spins.
Without any doubt quicker and a lot spinnier than the original Mark V without loosing any control.

Awesome control and spin. Enough speed for an offensive game. A great do it all rubber. Drive, block, top spin, push, serve, all are so easy. Perfect pairing with Donic Appelgreem World Championship 89.

Review of Yasaka Rakza 9

Best rubber you can find. Awsome 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 stokes, block, drive, top spin, and even shopping 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 result with flexible blades. Paired perfectly with soft outer layer off- blades such as Virtuoso off-.

Review of Yasaka Rakza X

One of the best rubbers I've tried. Can do everything with enourmous control.
Not as fast as Tenergy or MX-P but has enough speed to finish the point.
Pairs perfectly well as both FH & BH with medium stiff blades: Eternity VPS V, Carbonado 45 & 90, Acoustic Inner Carbon, Viscaria.
Really underrated.
