I love linear rubbers, so this rubber is a good one for me. It does it's job well without high catapult. It's quite a hard rubber, so it can go fast as long as you hit through it. It can also play short, chop and spin pretty well. It is balanced, but it does nothing exceptionally well, and it's price is quite high for what it is giving. There are other rubbers out there that have a higher value, but you cannot go wrong with this rubber. One thing bad about this rubber, the bottomsheet is badly affected by regluing. The Glayzer's spring sponge is durable AS LONG AS you keep it on the blade you glued on when it was new. If you reglue it, it'll crater like the moon.
