Not a very well known brand, and this is an even lesser known rubber. Darker is a Japanese brand best known for making great hinoki blades, but here it has a wonderful rubber that doesn't get the attention it deserves.

Whenever you talk about Sriver or Mark V, after you have try the PT-50, you HAVE to include it in your conversation. This rubber plays just like those 2 rubbers, but slightly spinnier, and faster. It has a very grippy topsheet, so it's very good for serves. Looping is very easy also, and it has a slightly high throw, making it a good combination with carbon blades.

This rubber is pretty hard to obtain, the only known site i know that carries this and ships internationally is iruiru.com
