YasakaMark V Table Tennis Rubber: Color-Black, Sponge Thickness-1.5 mm

I got a set of Yasaka Mark Vs for my first "real" blade - a Butterfly Timo Boll OFF. I went with 1.5mm and 2.0mm, as I play my forehand more offensively. Although I don't have a ton of experience with top-level rubber, I do have some. The Mark Vs have a great balance of control and spin.My one complaint is that they're a little TOO sticky for a novice player. If this is your first rubber, you'll have some problems dealing with spin, and it will take some time to adjust. I would suggest starting with a rubber that's rated lower for "spin".

This rubber came in and it didn't perform as expected. The first problem I had with it was it didn't provide as high of a spin as some much cheaper rubber I've used before. Save your money and buy elseware.
