With PRYDE Yasaka introduces the first POWER TENSION rubber. The all New PRYDE offers a quick ball bounce, nice sound and a rubber surface with improved friction.
PRYDE is suitable for advanced players.
Name on top sheet is "PRYDE". Sponge color is "Cream".
Good rubber for forehand and backhand. Nice feel with smashing and drop shot; unbelievable spin produces by the top sheet when playing mid-distance, but the control is just very normal. It feels like an all-rounded rubber with high speed more then a powerful offensive rubber.
Yasaka pryde rubber is one of Yasaka's best tensor rubbers. it has a very nice speed gleud feel to it. The sponge is rather soft, but really elastic. The speed and spin are great! You can hear this through the sound that the rubber makes when you loop, as you hear a very nice, clean clicking. The control is kind of lacking, but the good thing is that there is good enough touch so that the ball will not shoot long always. Thus, it is actually really good for counterlooping and high arc looping. For blocking, it is a little hard to place the ball, but not too bad. I suggest this rubber for back hand.
