The Rocket responds very good to what you want it to do. If you want it to get to the spot and stand up, it will do that, it won't keep rolling and continuing. It does need friction to move though, it's a medium strength cover on a medium strength core, and it doesn't have a ton of traction in oil. It's a ball that definitely makes it easy to control the breakpoint with a simple physical adjustment. However, that also means you won't get away with bad misses like you may with some other ball.
