Yasaka Rakza X Soft Table Tennis Rubber

The Yasaka Rakza X Soft is a high-performance offensive table tennis rubber designed for players who prioritize spin, control, and a softer, more forgiving feel. As the softer version of Rakza X, it features the same advanced topsheet combined with a softer sponge (~42.5°), delivering increased dwell time and enhanced ball contact for improved consistency and precision.

Built with Yasaka’s New Surface System (NSS), the topsheet provides exceptional grip, allowing players to generate heavy spin on loops, serves, and opening attacks. The softer sponge increases ball hold, making it easier to lift backspin and produce high-arc, spin-heavy shots with confidence.

Compared with the standard Rakza X, Rakza X Soft offers a higher throw angle, softer feel, and better control, while slightly reducing speed. This makes it particularly suitable for backhand play, controlled topspin rallies, and players who value precision over raw power.

Despite its softer nature, the rubber still delivers a noticeable catapult effect, ensuring enough speed for offensive play. It performs exceptionally well in close-to-the-table and mid-distance rallies, where players can take advantage of its spin, control, and consistency.
