Customer review for Yasaka Rakza Z

External Review for Yasaka Rakza Z on April 17, 2022

This rubber is really spectacular, it has great virtues, but its greatest quality is rotation, you can lift any cut, use your topspin with the confidence that it will pass the net and land well placed on the other side, since its angle is high. I can say that for players who prefer to play close to the table and in the middle distance, it is ideal. The speed is controllable but not very fast, so away from the table you can feel how your balls lose energy. In my opinion it is a rubber that has that Chinese grip, but with the European response. It is the best version of hybrid rubbers that I have tried. On the other hand, you have to maintain constant cleanliness, but its benefit is durability, I trained 6 to 7 hours a week, and in 2021 I can say that it was a year that I kept a great record and now in 2022 I just finished it. renew, to my surprise, that it still has a useful life, at least 25%. Compared to tires like joola dynaryz acc, goldarc8, tenergy and even Hurricane neo, I can say that none have as much durability and performance. As for the serves, I can keep them short, add a lot of spin and be sure that on my third ball I can return with a good topspin. It is also not very susceptible to the effect, so I feel very confident when it comes to returning services. Actually, I'm thinking of using it not only on my forehand, but on my backhand as well. My style is Chinese with a soft rubber forehand, and in Backhand the joola dynaryz acc A harder rubber, with more tension. But I've considered using it on both sides, or maybe trying the "Hard" version (although I've also wanted to try the nittaku G1. I haven't decided yet, but I'm sure my fordhand is reserved for the rakzaZ. Among the negative aspects are the weight, the speed a bit low compared to others and the need for constant cleaning. The rakzaZ is very well suited for beginners, intermediate and advanced, for professionals I wouldn't be too sure because I haven't seen it on any recognized athlete yet.
