Yasaka

Yasaka, founded in Japan in 1947, aims to produce high-quality table tennis products for players of all skill levels. In 1969, Yasaka developed the Mark V rubber, one of the most renowned rubbers in table tennis history. Since then, many iterations of this rubber have been developed. In 2010, Yasaka released the first member of its flagship Rakza series, i.e., Rakza7, which has a top-sheet that is mostly made from natural rubber gum, providing exceptional touch, feel, and durability. The series expanded with Rakza 9, focusing on speed, and Rakza X,emphasizing grip. Rakza Z and Rakza Z Extra Hard, featuring a hard sponge and sticky top-sheet, cater to players prioritizing grip. This concept is also seen in the Rising Dragon rubber. The ... latest member of this series, Rakza XX, balances grip and speed with its hard yet dynamic sponge. Rakza PO, Mattias Falck’s short pimpled rubber of choice, completes the Rakza line. Yasaka is also well-known for its blades that are produced in Tranås, Sweden since 1992. Their blade line includes classics such as the Ma Lin series (Carbon, Extra Offensive, Soft Carbon, Extra Special, Max Carbon), the Falck series (W7 and Carbon), and other notable blades like the Sweden Extra, Extra Offensive 7 Power, and Goiabao 5. Chinese legend Ma Lin has had a long-lasting partnership with Yasaka, first as a player (three-time Olympic Champion, nine-time World Champion, and four-time World Cup winner) and later as an advisor. Mattias Falck (2021 Men’s Doubles World Champion, 2019 World Championships Men’s Singles silver medalist, 2022 European Champion Men’s Doubles),Hampus Nordberg, and Satoshi Aida also trust Yasaka for their equipment needs.
