Revisión de la goma de tenis de mesa

Esta goma es implacable: si no golpeas la pelota correctamente, se caerá. Sin embargo, es muy potente para atacar. Si la golpeas suavemente, irá muy suave; si la golpeas fuerte, irá muy rápido. Genera una cantidad considerable de giro y es brutal para los smash. Ofrece un buen control tanto pasivo como activo.

Es muy efectiva para los servicios. Personalmente, creo que está mejor diseñada para el golpe de derecha que para el de revés. Es una goma que te ayudará a mejorar tu técnica.

Alcanza su máximo potencial con maderas rígidas como la Donic Burn OFF. En resumen, esta goma es un arma muy eficaz si se utiliza correctamente. Una vez más, no es una goma indulgente: te dirá directamente cómo estás golpeando la pelota.

Nota:
Las gomas con embalaje azul o rojo son las mismas.

Table Tennis Rubber Review

Performance with DHS W1030 Blade:

Pairing this rubber with the hard DHS W1030 blade is not recommended due to the excessive hardness of both the blade and the rubber. The ball tends to bounce off immediately upon contact.

Pros:

  • Speed: Acceptable, though not exceptional.
  • Topspins: Good spin generation.
  • Mid-Range Play: Effective for playing at mid or far distances from the table.
  • Loops: Suitable for executing loops.
  • Affordability: Reasonably priced.

Cons:

  • Chopping: Requires significant effort.
  • Defense Against Chop and Sidespin: Difficult to defend against, as the ball bounces off instantly.
  • Close-to-Table Play: Not recommended due to excessive bounce.
  • Weight: The combination of blade and rubber results in a heavy setup.

Additional Considerations:

As a beginner, it is difficult to determine whether the rubber’s performance is solely due to its characteristics or a combination of factors, including individual adjustment to the equipment.
