YINHE (Milkyway) Moon 12 Blue Hard
Yinhe Moon 12 Blue is a tensor type rubber, the topsheet is very tacky but not sticky. The color is blue only (Moon 12 Green is not another color of this rubber, but a different rubber model). It is available in several hardness versions.
In a nutshell: reliability, precision, control and forgiveness of mistakes. This makes it perfect for practice and developing of technique and for playing at any level with a focus on spin and accuracy. It is suitable even for beginners if it is not on a fast base. If you compare it to the Vega Pro for example, the Moon 12 Blue is noticeably slower and very much more controllable.
It is an attacking rubber with an emphasis on accuracy rather than speed. That is, it is designed for a controlling and attacking style, to keep the ball comfortably on the table, to play with precision and accuracy. Provides a very reliable block and high accuracy in serve receive and short game. When topspin, it holds the ball for a long time and allows you to direct it exactly where you want it.
Very powerful spin, even with a light brushing touch you can make a dangerous topspin. At the same time topspins can be made with good speed, unexpectedly high for such a not fast and controlling rubber. Although you have to use your technique to add speed, as the rebound of this rubber is much calmer than that of speed-focused tensors. Topspins and countertopspins even from a big distance from the table remain effective, thanks to the very powerful spin and superior control.
Drives are easy and comfortable to do, and the block is just great.
Bananas are very comfortable to do, you just have to focus on spin and accuracy, as due to the speed of the overlap they will not be very fast.
Not heavy. The softer the version, the less weight of the rubber.
