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	8.3
Spin $<b>Spin</b> is the amount of ball rotation generated by the rubber. This is affected by the rubber\'s tackiness, sponge thickness, sponge hardness as well as the blade\'s flexibility.$	8.2
Control	7.4
Tackiness $<b>Tackiness</b> refers to the level of stickiness of the rubber surface. Traditional Chinese rubbers are usually tacky enough to lift a ball off the table by pressing the rubber on top of the ball, whereas traditional European and Japanese rubbers do not.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Very tacky</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Tacky</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium tacky</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Slightly tacky</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Completely non-tacky</td></tr></table>$	5.4 - 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.

Sponge Hardness $<b>Sponge Hardness</b> refers to the density of the sponge.

Gears $<b>Gears</b> refers to a rubber\'s ability to produce a wide range of speeds. A rubber with a wide range of speeds (many gears) can produce slow speeds (on gentle strokes) and high speeds (on hard strokes). With few gears, you may always produce fairly slow balls, or always produce fairly fast balls on lighter and harder strokes.$	6.0 - Above average gears
Durability	5.7 - Average durability
Consistency	10.0

Description from Yasaka New Era Packaging

As soon as you hit the ball with New Era, you will feel the difference from other rubber sheets.

As the name implies, New Era offers new possibilities. For offensive players who want to counterattack, there is a new feeling and a new way to use the energy in the most efficient way.

New Era is a high-tech product with Latent Energy Inside technology. Yasaka uses a new revolutionary gluing technique to attach the top sheet to the sponge. It keeps the rubber and the sponge in a constantly expanded form.

New Era is a very good rubber for an advanced offensive player.
I hgihly recommend it!
There is also only ONE version of Yasaka New Era, so the green, pink, and other covers with control, speed , and spin Yasaka New Era are all FAKE! The real New Era should have a cartoon like cover.

I'm a C Pen player, though by no means an advanced offensive player. For what it's worth I find I get great spin, good control, and more than adequate speed using New Era on my forehand on a Donic Appelgren Allplay blade (a slowish allround blade).
However, there's no trace of New Eras in Japan now, and apparently Yasaka don't make it any more, so I suspect that many, like me, will soon be looking for a replacement.
