Victas V>15 - Powerful high spin looper rubber - great Tenergy alternative!
The Victas V>15 Extra rubber has become a huge success first in Japan, then became a #1 seller in Korea where is was found to be the best alternative for Tenergy for the plastic ball. The Victas V>15 Limber was more successful in Singapore, where a softer sponge was preferred, very much like the Tenergy FX series. Although these rubbers share the spin potential and catapult of the Tenergy series, they are considerably more forgiving and easier to play with.
Feedback from former Tenergy users:

A run down on my thoughts re: Victas V>15 Extra;
Excellent! I am very picky with the rubbers and have been using Tenergy 80 for the last 3 years after trying numerous other rubbers during the off- season I have found Victas V>15 Extra to be the equal to Tenergy insofar as control, hardness, speed and overall general proprieties. It is suited to my game which is close to the table counter loop, punching and mid table attack.
I found the rubber very response to power generation (when required) and easily controllable when someone attacks with heavy spin. The 'feeling' is excellent on the return of serve and 3rd ball attack as well as when 'heavy spin' is required off of third ball attack. I will be using this rubber moving forward. Mar 2016

To win the actual game I chose this equipment without considering only spin or speed. When I used this equipment in the game I realized I could play the game without feeling uncomfortable. Compared to before I felt my performance had improved. What I like most about this equipment was is it resulted in an increase in rotational speed on the ball. I was also satisfied with the counter drive. Blade: Victas Quartet AFC; Rubbers: Victas V>15 Extra. Jan 2016
Victas VS > 401 - extreme spin modern defender rubber
Victas VS > 401. The German and Japanese material experts (GJ Tec) developed an extremely tacky surface for vicious backspin forcing your opponent into mistakes. The slightly more compact sponge neutralizes your opponent's attacks, thus providing for fantastic control.
Note: A mildly tacky rubber that offers extreme spin potential, and feels slow at low impact but offer good offensive potential at high impact! A truly unique rubbers ideal for choppers that counter-attack upon opportunity.

Victas Koji Matsushita Blade - ultimate modern defender blade
Koji Matsushita, 4-times Olympic competitor and one of the world's foremost defenders, and the VICTAS team designed a defensive blade which has everything modern defensive strategists need. The perfectly adjusted, 5-ply structure made of carefully selected veneers (including high-quality Japanese cedar fir) provides for great control in away-from-the-table defensive play and in passive above-the-table play.
Plus, the VICTAS Koji Matsushita produces enough power for successful attacking. Modern defenders who not only rely on their defensive qualities, but use every opportunity to attack, will be inspired by the VICTAS Koji Matsushita. Each of these outstanding blades is created individually in a complex manufacturing process - hand-made in Japan.
Used by Koji Matsushita himself today (veteran circuit in Japan).
