Yasaka Rakza 7 Soft

I have been using Rakza 7 soft for more than a year. I do not know why but some batches are good and some are bad. I used them for my forehand as I want to control my loop. The good batches gave me lot of control, accuracy and suit my game well. The bad batches were really bad! At times they felt hard like a brick, sorry, and my opponents told me my loop had no power. I think quality control of this rubber is terrible, especially when I took advantage of buying 4 for 3 price from Tabletennis11. Another thing I notice is when I tried to glue the 2nd time the rubber curved a lot. It seemed it was pre-tuned with some kind of booster! Not sure if this is correct but I do not like pre-tuned rubber. I now switch to tensor rubbers as they are more consistent in quality and regluing is not an issue.

As Usual I was living my life happily until my latest sheet of 729 563 wore down. However my Mark V was still alive. My coach said that pips weren’t very good and recommend me a better, more faster rubber. And that was Rakza 7 Soft. So the next session I decided to buy and use it. At first I hated it because it was heavy. However I quickly realised it’s potential. This rubber was so much faster and spinneir than that of my 563. I kept using it and enjoyed it. Then I started to struggle after a while it started to become less and less controllable. I got so tired of over hitting that I just went back to 563. However Until it started getting really uncontrollable it was a great rubber.
