Gigant is an antispin that is very slow and very power absorbing, but it is not frictionless nor is it similar to classic antis with friction. The topsheet of Gigant is very hard. The surface of the rubber is not sanded like classical antis and not treated like frictionless antis, it is glossy (slightly shiny) like normal inverted rubbers and even has a little bit of grip, although not very much due to the special rubber compound. The sponge of Gigant is a soft dampening sponge. It reduces the speed of the rubber to a level that can be compared to that of frictionless antis. Unlike these rubbers Gigant can be used both for blocking at the table and for classic defense away from the table.
