Pros
  • Great feel
  • Fast, spinny
  • Good price
Cons
  • Slightly fragile
-This rubber definitely outperforms its low price of just 38 US dollars
-Nice feel
-Good speed and spin, but not uncontrollably fast. In fact the control is outstanding
-Very nice soft feeling
-Topsheet feels fragile and chips away easily
-The sponge has a unique black colour (just as many other Xiom rubbers are)

Pros
  • Powerful
  • Solid Feel
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Price
  • Maybe too hard
  • Close to table
Extremely powerful, it gives you a very solid and commanding feeling when powerlooping and finishing a point. Close to the table, especially when flicking, it is noticeably less controllable. But overall, great feel, and a very high-quality blade.

Pros
  • High performance
  • Well known
  • Great price
Cons
  • Not very durable
  • "Dead" feel
  • Technique-based
`This rubber is well worth the price, but isn't as durable as most rubbers especially non-tacky ones (although that's to be expected)
`The performance of this rubber is fairly dependent on your technique. To get the best out of it you need nearly flawless technique
`Famous (used by many players of the Chinese National Team)
`Great for control in serves and the short game, pushing with spin, serving with a lot of spin, etc.
`If you don't hit it just right, it may result in a "dead feel", generating very low speed. But if you do, you can get immense power

Pros
  • Very Spinny
  • Grippy surface
  • Controllable
Cons
  • MediumDurability
  • Not that fast
`This rubber is much more grippy than most other Euro/Japan smooth rubbers, resulting in superior spin generation
`Serves and the short game are also very controllable
`Not particularly fast, but definitely fast enough to support an allround or normal offensive game that involves a lot of spin
`Fairly sensitive to incoming spin, but not as much as some other rubbers
`Not particularly durable, probably around average
