This is one of the best European rubbers in terms of the overall quality. It can put adequate amount of both spin and speed on a ball with control while playing matches. The hardness of the rubber, 47.5 degree, may or may not be suitable for some players, but for those looking for mid-hard tension rubbers this will improve the consistency of both your fore/backhand as well as the game quality all in all. Meanwhile, mines lasted only about 2 and half months and became slick on the top sheet surface. The rubber isn't cheep, so it may not be an option for players in need of durable rubbers considering the price.
