External Review for Yasaka Rakza PO on November 28, 2022

Rakza PO is my second gum with short pips, and including the Chinese long pips I used to play before, it was the third one. It is a rubber that plays quite similar to smooth rubber. To adapt to Rakza PO, it is enough to exercise for 10-15 hours, keep a different angle of the racket and remember to play more with your wrist and push the ball forward. I have her backhand on purpose - to force myself into an offensive game. First things first. Rakza works great in blocks - you have to block and push the racket a little forward - the opponent then gets the ball so fast that it is difficult for him to respond and is pushed to the defensive. The ball gets interesting vibrations during the flight - it flies in a zigzag and relatively low and flat. I do not recommend passive blocks, the ball then falls into the net quite often, there must always be minimal forward movement of the racket. Also, the Rakza PO is pretty good to serve, with a pretty good spin, maybe not like the Rakza 7, but enough to make the pickup difficult. You can also play this rubber topspin with a nice spin, also from the second zone !!! Attacks, flat, kills are very effective. The racket must then be open and the strike must come from the wrist. The speed of such an attack is enormous. As for the control ... it is quite a difficult assessment because a pip will never be as precise as a smooth rubber, but with each training session it gets better and better. Playing short at the table is easy, but also requires different angles and the ball needs to be pushed a little more.Rakza PO is quite sensitive to the upcoming serve spin, but as with other licks, the move cannot be passive. If you move forward you will cancel the rotation. Exercise and beat your opponents. There is no soft game! ?
