I don't understand why ppl here keep complimanting this rubber. In my opinion, it has a very awful durability. It is too hard, if you go with 2.0+, there is a big chance you will break it when you rip it off from the blade (that's how it ends, i only use this rubber for 3 weeks). Moreover, it's expensive, so why don't you just get T05 in such case? It's faster than D05, but much less span, basically only fast. The control is worse than T05, it's completely designed for speedo, not for loop, not at all. So if you cannot produce enough power to overcome the incoming span, then you basically screw up.

Nittaku Hammond Z2
by Nittaku
The Nittaku Hammond Z2 rubber has a fantastic "bulkhead" sponge, creating max power while reducing energy loss, and strengthening repulsive force. The natural rich topsheet, which has a high ratio of natural rubber and a high density of rubber sheets, is great because it does not fall off even if it is taken thinly. Take control of the match with the ability to counter your opponent's rotation and pierce the opponent's court deeply even if you are away from the table! Nittaku Hammond Z2 provides a superior grab feeling, and upgrades the original speed of the Hammond Pro rubber. The Hammond series, adopted by many top athletes, has powered up for the new era with Hammond Z2! Speed: 96
Spin: 96
Control: 67
Hardness: Hard

Reviews of Nittaku Hammond Z2 (36)
this rubber is fast, spinny and very grippy.. but still easy to use.. i use it as my fh black rubber (super thick sponge) on viscaria alc and g-1 (thick sponge) on my bh.. but I'm gonna replace it with this rubber too, it'll work well i think.. it's easy to loop a fast long backspin serve with this rubber..
Tested on Yasaka Sweden Extra, black, 2.0. I don't understand how anyone can compare this rubber with Tenergy 05. It's incomparable. Nittaku Hammond Z2 is sticky and slow. Average rotation. I think the people who are excited about this cover are those who have very fast carbon woods and like the slow down that this rubber gives them.
It's all about speed and spin. Played with it on Nittaku acoustic carbon: it's like a piece of stone, the arc is very low and looping against backspin is a burden. At least close to the table, maybe far from the table the feeling may be different. It's very durable: played in harsh condition(extreme humidity, cold) no change. I think low temperature is a no go for this rubber. So if you're an advanced player with high experience you may play fine but only for couple if minutes because is so boring. I put it also on a 7 layers all wood OSP Martin pro, still the same story. For those money you'll find much more nice alternative.
