The racket is an andro 5-ply TIMBER 5 OFF, a well-balanced racket. I don't think there are any dents from hitting the ball. The red rubber is Butterfly's Glayzer 09C (a rubber with excellent control, speed, and spin using Spring Sponge X), and the black rubber is ANDRO's RASANTER R37 (a soft rubber with a hardness of 37, but with excellent control, and the balls that I think will go over the table always go in).
