Nittaku Zalt

Good for backhand. Doesnt last long though

This rubber is great for beginners to low-intermediate skilled players, to learn good strokes and fine touches. It is a recently released non-tensor rubber. I have it as a forehand rubber (I have seen it used for backhand on fast composite blades). My rubber is 1.8mm thick and black. I have it glued onto a 5 ply all wood blade, an average speed hard blade. I have been able to produce decent top spins, low near straight shots (drive). Good for short and mid table. I have given it an overall score of 9/10, a rating applicable to those after a good forehand rubber for basic training (e.g. top spin, side spin, close table loops) and skill refinement. It is good for its price (got mine for around $27 US). I am unable to rate the durability as I haven't had it for long enough.
