The XIOM C52.5 performs quite similarly to the Dignics 09C. It has a crisper, more solid feel, a higher maximum spin ceiling, and it's easier to flat-hit. However, you really need to commit to your strokes to generate good speed. When looping against backspin, it doesn't give you that "automatic...

H8 requires a lot of physical effort to produce a heavy ball. It lacks that 'grabbing' sensation. While LAC is faster than LIMITLESS, the feedback is muffled, and the spin potential feels underwhelming for a tacky rubber. Most Chinese sticky rubbers have that typical 'dead' feel at impact.

I had previously heard that boosting the LOKI GTX PRO would be a suitable alternative to the Dignics 09C, so I tried it out. The results showed that while control and catapult performance were indeed dramatically improved, the ball spin, launch, and feel were completely different from the 09C...

It seems that Raoh will appear in the second release. Other characters have not yet been decided, but it seems that they will be added.

SANEI will be selling a racket in collaboration with Fist of the North Star, which I believe will be released exclusively in Japan. https://sanei-hp.jp/news/detail.php?id=26

When we spoke to a Japanese manufacturer, we learned that the hardness and bounce of the ball when hit changes depending on the type of adhesive. Performance also varies depending on the country of origin, age of the tree, drying time, and processing method.

We recommend the HEXER GRIP series. It has the same spin performance as the R47, but slightly lower bounce. It has good trajectory and arc.

The TELSON series feels like an outdated rubber. The sheet is weak and there's not enough spin. For me it's not much different from the Mark V.

I don't really understand why the Telson Germany is so highly rated. It has little momentum, little spin, and lacks power. Some comments say that boosting it would be enough, but if that's the case, it would be better to boost it to the H8 37 degrees, which has more spin.

I'm not sure if they can ship overseas, but the Wizard 丁々発止 is a wonderful five-ply plywood racket. Ginkgo is used as the core, which gives it excellent control and, when hit hard, produces power similar to that of an inner racket.

When the Vega series was released in Japan 16 years ago, it was around $22. Now it's up to around $34, but the Vega O is around $27. It's still priced competitively like it was back then. It seems to be targeted at beginner and intermediate players.

It uses a five-ply wood that is similar to a Korbel and has a little more bounce and is easier to spin.

I changed my backhand rubber from H8 37 to ZYRE03 2.5mm. I'm so impressed I can't go back to other rubbers.

K5 is very good. It uses Ayous wood as the core, which is a little hard.
