External Review for Yasaka Rakza 7 on March 17, 2021

Control is good. Not a fast rubber which is why the control is good. It is not as spinny or as powerful as Fastarc G1, Donic M1, Victas V15 Extra or Tenergy of course. i wont recommend it to people who are loopers cos the spin is not damaging or ferocious enough to unsettle your opponents, unless you are a very high level player.

It performs well in smashing and blocking. The rubber absorbs the spin and drives from your opponents well enough for your blocks to remain low most of the time. Smashes are easy cos of the medium arc the rubber projects.

Now I understand why so many people use this for their BH instead. It excels in CONTROL...albeit at the expense of spin and power. This is not strong enough for me to use as a FH rubber, but I can see how good it is as my BH rubber.

Looping is not its strength. It doesnt have enough power to cause a lot of damage cos its simply not spinny enough when compared to Fastarc G1, Donic M1, Victas V15 Extra or Tenergy. Yes, due to its good control, most of the time the ball will land safely when you loop but the lack of spin and power will be easily blocked or counter looped by opponents, negating all your loops.

Conclusion: If you want Rubber that has good CONTROL and slower, this is a good one. If you are a looper and rely mostly on looping to win points, look elsewhere.
