Rally’s Redmonkey series

Has anyone tried or even heard of these rubbers or company. Supposedly the first Japanese produced rubber with a 50° tensioned sponge, and the softer version “Spin” with a 46° sponge. Sounds gimmicky, but seems to be selling well in Japan (or that might be marketing), and I believe a team is using it in the Nationals league over there.
It sounds like the strength of this rubber lies in its price to perform ration. They’re $25-30 a sheet.

the rubber plays (when new) like a really fast G1. the performance lasts about 2-3 weeks then it becomes quite dull. i boosted it with Seamoon and it became a bit softer, but the dull-ness was still there.

i would say it plays well for its price but that is all about it - not too special.

i have used both Hard and Soft versions

Thanks for the quick review. I did see mention that it was like a modern Fastarc.

A lot of the made in japan rubbers feels like fastarc. Mizuno Q-Quality, this, mantra pro's (maybe?). But also considering that fastarc is around 4.8-5.2k yen. It's better to use fastarc than spend 4k on an alternative.
