Yasaka Mark V Table Tennis Rubber

A new generation blade, Butterfly ZLF with Donic Coppa Gold and Yasaka Rakza
Many Table Tennis players, especially those who are making a comeback after several years, try to search for Yasaka Mark V Table Tennis rubbers but face difficulty in finding them. The reasons are quite a few, important among which are the fact that Table Tennis has now evolved and the technology has changed to keep pace with the rules (bigger ball, shorter game).

As a result, the game has become faster and one needs to possess equipment which guarantees Speed and Spin. This is where Yasaka Mark V falters in our opinion. Although it is a rubber that stood the test of time and was one of the biggest selling rubbers ever, it is not capable of serving one in today's competitive environment.

This is where the new generation rubbers step in. Chief among the new gen rubbers were the first movers such as Donic Coppa Gold, Donic Sonex JP Gold, Donic JO Platin. There are also a whole host of rubbers alternatives from Tibhar and others. Yasaka company has worked on the rubber technology and come up with the Rakza series.

If you are planning to make a comeback or upgrade from the older generation rubbers to the new ones, do write a mail to editor@tabletennisbug.com or contact +919822749251

Donic Sonex JP Gold review

Donic Sonex JP Gold is one of the all time great rubber of choice for many players, both professional and club players. It has extra ordinary control and is especially good for counter hitting and blocking. When players first move from traditional rubbers such as Yasaka Mark V or Butterfly Sriver, Donic Sonex JP Gold is an amazingly good rubber to switch to as a top choice.

Service returns are easy with this rubber due to the small amount of effort that is required to just direct the most spinniest of balls. On the other side, Sonex itself allows one to serve well. All in all, it is a great rubber mainly for the mid range to close to table playing style, but can be adapted to serve the experienced far table players too.
