New: Nittaku Blastac - controlled offensive rubber with a lot of feeling
The new 2026 rubber
The Nittaku Blastac is a soft offensive rubber for players who want to make their attacking game safer, more variable and easier to control. Its grippy top rubber and soft sponge (45°) provide a clear feel for the ball. The focus of the Blastac is clearly on very controlled, precise and consistent balls.
In short: The Nittaku Blastac is ideal if you want to play offensively but don't want to compromise on safety, ball feeling and fault tolerance.
Rubber with a lot of control for a safe offensive game
Not every offensive rubber has to be uncompromisingly hard, direct and as fast as possible. The Nittaku Blastac takes a different approach: it offers you enough speed for an active attacking game while remaining easy to control.
The controlled feel is particularly helpful during longer rallies. You can guide the ball cleanly, place it safely and react stably even under pressure. This makes the Blastac particularly interesting for club players who not only want to make their game faster, but above all more consistent.
Soft sponge, clear ball contact
The soft sponge with 45° sponge hardness allows the ball to sink in noticeably. This creates a pleasant ball contact feeling, which gives you more control and confidence during topspins, openings and counter-pulls.
The grippy top rubber helps you to generate rotation comparatively easily. This means you don't always have to use your full body to bring the ball to the table with spin. Players who do not have extreme power or want to stabilize their technique even further will benefit greatly from this rubber.
Blastac - Good mix of spin, speed and fault tolerance
The Nittaku Blastac is not a rubber that is only designed for maximum top speed. Its strength lies more in the balanced combination of control, ball feel and offensive playability.
With a clean technique, you get enough speed for topspins, active counters and powerful placements. At the same time, the rubber is forgiving enough not to become unsafe at the slightest mistake. This is exactly what makes it so interesting for many table tennis players: you can play actively without constantly having the feeling that you have to hit the ball 100% perfectly. The Blastac forgives small mistakes quite generously.
Who is the Nittaku Blastac suitable for?
The Nittaku Blastac is particularly well suited to all-round and offensive players who want to build up their attacking game with more confidence. If you like to open with topspin, place the ball in a controlled manner and also want to remain stable when blocking and counter-attacking, this rubber is a very exciting option.
The Blastac can also work well on the backhand. The soft sponge, secure feel and high control help with active blocks, backhand topspins and fast wrist shots.
Extremely offensive players looking for maximum power and extremely high spin reserves will probably prefer harder rubbers. The Blastac is stronger when it comes to reliable offense, high control and a good feel for the ball.
How the Blastac supports you in the game
The Nittaku Blastac can help you especially if you want to bring more security into your offensive game. The long ball contact time makes it easier to control the ball, which can provide noticeable support for topspin openings against undercut, placed attacking balls and stable rallies.
The Blastac also makes it easier for players with a slightly shorter arm stroke or less explosive movement to generate speed and rotation. The rubber works in a supportive manner without being uncontrolled.
Conclusion - Nittaku Blastac
The Nittaku Blastac is not a hard and uncompromising rubber for maximum hardness, maximum spin and maximum pressure. Its strength lies in another area: it makes offensive table tennis easier to play.
If you are looking for a rubber that offers you a lot of feel, good control, easily retrievable spin and enough speed for an active game, the Blastac will suit you very well. If, on the other hand, you prefer a very hard, extremely low-catapult or maximum pressure topspin rubber, it will probably be too soft for you.
