The Stiga Genesis II S is an updated and even more spin oriented version of the original Stiga Genesis S. The Genesis II S combines aspects of both European style rubbers and Chinese style rubbers. This rubber has a modern European style sponge combined with a thin topsheet made in China. The surface of this rubber is tacky and also has increased grip for additional spin. The Genesis II S is also designed with increased durability and life expectancy for the rubber. The medium soft sponge produces a clear sound with incredible spin, touch, and control.
