From manufacturer:

Speed	65.0 /
Spin	95.0 /
Control	96.0 /
Tensor $<b>Tensor Rubber</b> - Tensor rubbers have a pre-tensioned rubber topsheet, already pulled tighter so it has some built in catapult effect to increase speed and spin. Normal rubbers don\'t have extra tension.$	No

From community:

Speed	6.3
Spin $<b>Spin</b> is the amount of ball rotation generated by the rubber. This is affected by the rubber\'s tackiness, sponge thickness, sponge hardness as well as the blade\'s flexibility.$	9.1
Control	9.1
Tackiness $<b>Tackiness</b> refers to the level of stickiness of the rubber surface. Traditional Chinese rubbers are usually tacky enough to lift a ball off the table by pressing the rubber on top of the ball, whereas traditional European and Japanese rubbers do not.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Very tacky</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Tacky</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium tacky</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Slightly tacky</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Completely non-tacky</td></tr></table>$	5.7 - Medium tacky
Throw Angle $<b>Throw Angle</b> is the angle that the ball is projected from strokes like the loop. Assuming the loop stroke is the same, a high throw angle will lift the ball higher. Tacky rubbers often have a higher throw angle.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>9+</td><td>Very high</td></tr><tr><td>7 - 9</td><td>High</td></tr><tr><td>5.5 - 7</td><td>Medium-high</td></tr><tr><td>3.5 - 5.5</td><td>Medium</td></tr><tr><td>1.5 - 3.5</td><td>Medium-low</td></tr><tr><td>Under 1.5</td><td>Low</td></tr></table>$	5.8 - Medium-high
Weight	4.7 - Average
Sponge Hardness $<b>Sponge Hardness</b> refers to the density of the sponge. This is measured in degrees:<table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td><td>Degrees</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Hard</td><td>45+ degrees</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Medium Hard</td><td>43-44 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium</td><td>41-42 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Medium Soft</td><td>38-40 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Soft</td><td>under 37 degrees</td></tr></table>$	3.7 - Medium-soft
Gears $<b>Gears</b> refers to a rubber\'s ability to produce a wide range of speeds. A rubber with a wide range of speeds (many gears) can produce slow speeds (on gentle strokes) and high speeds (on hard strokes). With few gears, you may always produce fairly slow balls, or always produce fairly fast balls on lighter and harder strokes.$	6.7 - Above average gears
Durability	7.6 - Lasts longer than average
Consistency	9.4
Overall	8.6 4.3

Description of Stiga Chop & Drive

Chop & Drive gives you a high level of spin and speed, but also produces extreme backspin when required. Its unique sponge absorbs the ball and therefore increases the contact time that the ball is on the racket.

I liked this rubber A LOT, it had as much control as i wanted. It really chopped consistently with a lot of spin. It was a little bit difficult to attack with it but over all when I did i was satisfied with the results.

Used on Donic PerssonPowerPlay blade, BH, great for "line blocks," chop and sudden topspin cross attack with good control... So far I'm satisfied!

Rather slow but very spinny rubber which causes it to be a double edged sword: the incredible ammount of spin also makes it a lot more sensitive to incoming spin.

It excels at close-to-table chopping and blocking.
Personally I didn't like the feel much of a 1.5mm version chopping away from the table compared to a varispin or tackiness D.

I guess it's the stiga alternative for bty tackiness C and donic slice 40.

VERY GOOD ALLROUND (1.8mm) AND DEFENCE (1.1mm, 1,5mm) RUBBER

I use it on my backhand, thickness 1.8. My backhand improved much with this rubber. Punch-block has much control and my serves are very spinny. Very good rubber, but a little bit too slow
