I think this rubber is one of the most overrated rubbers of all time and that is for many reasons.
1. This rubber last like 1-2 weeks it is great in the beginning but after 1-2 weeks of traning this rubber is dead
2. This rubber has nothing special with it doesnt have great speed or spin. It has good control but nothing else. I feel that this rubber doesnt have have great control on the counter topsin for example or great feeling in the return game.
I would recommend using other brands like Stiga and Butterfly for example. If you think Rakza X is good in the beginning and you like those kind of rubbers. I would recommend Stiga DNA Platnium M this rubber has good control, spin speed and everything. And think with this rubber you can easier do counter topsin and you have more control on the first block and return.

Yasaka Rakza X
by Yasaka
· Part of Yasaka Rakza Series
The new Rakza X is the latest addition to the popular and highly successful Rakza series of Yasaka rubbers. The top sheet is made of natural rubber, employing a new production method. The result is a top surface with exceptional grip enabling both phenomenal spin and speed. These qualities reduce the margin for error. This top sheet is then combined with a harder Power Sponge. The resulting combination of a faster sponge and high grip top sheet enables you to place the ball accurately with a high degree of success. RAKZA X yet another winning combination from Yasaka! Speed: 94
Spin: 95
Control: 71

Reviews of Yasaka Rakza X (39)
Used it with blade BTF Balsa Carbo X5 22 on BH and with Rakza 9 on FH. Playing style is close to table all-rounder
This is awesome rubber for my BH. It has good spin and control and as a result, it is not as fast as Rakza 9. Recently played with Rakza 7 ob BH. Rakza X more suits to my BH, maybe because of more control that rakza 7 has.
With this rubber the first loop is so easy to do and most of players say that this loop has a very high spin that is very difficult to block because ball is then going out of table (same for rakza 7 and 9), sometimes first loops are very fast. For top spins sometimes I want more speed, because when you 2 meters from the table it is hard to do nice and fast top spin.
As for the back spin and push plays - it is very comfortable.
As for the serves - I am rarely using my BH serves, but when I do that it seems that it has required spin

I have purchased this rubber for my backhand about 2 weeks ago and my first impression is how grippy this is. Previously, I've played with Rakza7soft. RakzaX is a balanced rubber, versatile, with great grip and control without compromising speed. The rubber is fairly heavy, combined with Rakza Z now my blade weights 200g. I am using max sponge for both rubbers on a Petr Korbel 5 ply all-wood. Coming from Rakza 7 soft, it has taken me awhile to feel comfortable with my bh flick and receive/short game but nothing major, mainly because I've been used to the safeness the Rakza 7 soft offers whereas with the Rakza X I've had to be more aware, focused and also engage the sponge. In the short game, the rubber is feeling pretty good, doesn't really have that catapult effect softer rubbers have so you don't have to worry about the ball bouncing too high or too long. When I topspin with my bh, it feels great and pretty safe, even when picking low balls. It is quite noticeable how the rubber grips the ball instantly and overrides the opponent's spin. For blocking, the rubber has very good control, the ball doesn't bounce too high and has good speed. Overall, the most enjoyable part is the grip and how nice it feels when flicking or top spinning. The transition from Rakza 7 soft has been really smooth. I recommend this rubber for intermediate-advanced players on either fh or bh, it works great either way. As far as durability, I will update after several months.
Update: The topsheet is not that durable and loses its grip after a couple of months(10-15 hours of playing per week). I changed my blade with a Septear Feel Inner and the combination wasn't working for me. Went with Fastarc G1.

I am testing a sheet of Rakza X Max in the backhand and so far I am totally satisfied with it. Comparing it to Rakza 7, which has always been my ideal BH rubber, RX shows same speed and spin, but control is improved in all areas, specially in blocks and loop exchanges. Its throw angle is very high, ball passes high above the net and still lands on the table. Blocking with it is a breeze, extremely easy to control direction and deep. I recommend it to players who have an allround and controlled backhand.
