Yasaka Mark V Rubber: The Yasaka Mark V stands as one of the most venerable and renowned rubbers in the annals of table tennis history. Introduced back in 1969, it played a pivotal role in transforming the sport, demonstrating that a robust topspin attacking style not only had merit but would go on to dominate table tennis from the 1970s to the present day. Today, the Mark V remains distinguished by its adhesive surface, moderate sponge, and exceptional control.
