I got back into ping pong after not playing for about 30 years and I used pre made paddle after about 8 months I decided I wanted to put together my own paddle and did some research and I ended up with a Mi Linn carbon and Hurricane 3 for the forehead and Rakza 9 for the backhand I liked both rubbers but the Rakza 9 the ball seemed to jump off the paddle so it seemed faster than the Hurricane 3 but still had good control so I put together another paddle using Rakza 9 for both sides and I’m very happy with it.

Yasaka Rakza 9
by Yasaka
· Part of Yasaka Rakza Series
The first rubber to be introduced with Yasaka’s Hybrid Energy system was the Rakza 7, which is highly valued by high class players all over the world. The latest addition to the Rakza family is Rakza 9, which has improved speed characteristics. The surface rubber of Rakza 9 has a newly developed formula/rubber combination. In addition the new sponge is made of a more homogenous material and has larger pores. Rakza 9 is the fastest of Yasaka’s Hybrid Energy rubbers and is suitable for technical offensive players, using both high speed and spin to win the point. Speed: 102
Control: 60
Spin: 105
Yasaka rubbers are steeped in history dating back all the way to 1926. The flagship rubber for Yasaka has been the Mark V. Mark V burst onto the table tennis world stage in the 1970 and 1971 World Championships taking home victory in both competitions. The Mark V is still going strong today and other versions of the rubber have been produced through the following decades.
More recently Yasaka has developed Rakza rubbers which have taken innovation to another level. The shape of the pimples provides a strong balance between spin and speed. Rakza rubbers use Hybrid Energy to provide synergy between top sheet and sponge providing great elasticity for power and control.
Yasaka has many more rubbers in their product line as well. Yasaka rubbers are used by top professionals as well as players of all levels. Be like 2019 World Championship Silver Medalist Matias Falck and choose Yasaka rubbers.

Very Spinny and FAST but heavy (red max )
***Assembly service is not very good. Rubber and blade are not sticking together after a month.
***Assembly service is not very good. Rubber and blade are not sticking together after a month.
It is my current FH rubber. Using it on BTY Balsa Carbo X5 22.
It is a very spinny rubber with good speed and enough control.
As for the speed it is fast enough in close-to-table and in mid-to-table zones.
As for Spin - very spinny. Good spin on serves, very good spin in loop, enough spin in top spin to tops spin counters.
As for the loops - opponents have problems returning it onto the table. Most of time it is going out of table. You can easily do high and slow very spinny loops or fast and low loops.
Backspins and pushes are very comfortable and controllable, the ball is not tending to go away from the table on a fast backspin return as it is on some other tensor rubbers.
Serves: you can easily do fast "Waldner" serves as well as short spinny serves
But one you should do for sure - improve your footwork and technique. In a plastic ball era, you have to work on your footwork. You can't just rely on the speed, spin, or control of the blade/rubber as it was before the plastic ball.
When I started to work on my legs I realized the potential of Rakza family rubbers

Produces lots of speed and spin; great for intermediate players looking to improve their FH.
Best rubber you can find. Awsome grip. Easy to spin. Terrific FH weapon but also excellent in BH. Medium to low throw. Very controllable while the speed. Excellent in all types of stokes, block, drive, top spin, and even shopping is relatively easy. Push can be managed also if you take care of the relatively high bounciness. Serves are full of spin. Not sensitive to opponent spin. Gives excellent result with flexible blades. Paired perfectly with soft outer layer off- blades such as Virtuoso off-.
