Donic Bluefire JP 02 Rubber Review

This rubber offers a surprisingly good grip for its price point. It enables spinny serves and consistent backhand flicks. However, it lacks power when used on the forehand.

Table Tennis Rubber Review

I purchased this rubber to use on my Huriate Clipper, primarily for outdoor play. Initially, I was drawn to the feel of the rubber. However, as I continued to play, I realized that I prefer a less aggressive style, focusing on slower shots and counterattacks. This rubber gave me unwavering confidence in my strokes, allowing me to execute them with ease and precision.

Over time, my confidence grew, and I discovered the ability to play with both comfort and accuracy.

Note: This rubber may not provide the same level of assistance as some modern rubbers.
