Donic BlueGrip R1

This is a good rubber that offers excellent spin.

In my humble opinion, this rubber is good for the backhand. It has a tacky feel, which I appreciate; however, it feels a bit slow for my playing style. Additionally, it is slightly heavy.

I am using this rubber as my forehand option. It excels in producing loops and spin; however, it lacks consistency when it comes to smashing.

Резиночка довольно мягкая, ощущается на нажимах. 2-3 зоны кажутся слишком слабыми для стандартной игры.

Скорость и классическая игра в комбинированных стилях, можно забыть о слабых подачах и юрких отскоках за пределами зоны для стандартной игры.

Накладка исключительно для атакующих игроков и их сильных сторон.

Identical to the Joola Golden Tango PS, this rubber is very effective for both forehand and backhand strokes. It offers excellent versatility and performance, making it a great choice for players looking to enhance their game.

This rubber offers excellent tackiness and delivers impressive spin. It pairs very well with the Donic Original Carbospeed blade; I have it installed on both my forehand and backhand, and it performs superbly on both sides. It doesn’t require excessive effort to generate good spin and speed.

However, I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners, especially when used with that blade. To maximize its potential, players need to put in considerable effort and possess solid technique to avoid making mistakes. During my learning phase, I faced numerous challenges when using it, but I believe it is an excellent choice for players with a deeper understanding of the game.

The throw angle is medium, and earlier in my journey, I struggled to consistently loop the ball over the net due to my technique. Now that my skills have improved, I find the rubber performs quite well.

Moreover, it has remarkable durability. I’ve been using it for several months, and while the tackiness has diminished from when it was brand new, it still offers decent grip. The performance has remained stable throughout the time I’ve had it, making it a worthwhile investment.
