Donic Coppa

This is a “classical” rubber, which means it is not very bouncy. It has a slight amount of tackiness.

It is a bit harder, faster, and spinnier compared to Mark V or Focus III Snipe. Weighing 43g and glued in 2.1 mm, this rubber is still going strong after 70 hours of play.

I have found that while using tensors, the classical rubbers are easier to control, both over and close to the table. This makes it very easy to keep pushes low. Blocks and counters are also performed well. However, I do find that looping is an area where I need more assistance.

Overall, this table tennis rubber performs well in all aspects. It can be fresh-glued easily and offers a variety of gears. Additionally, it provides a good amount of kick during play.

The old reliable is still excellent; it’s a tad faster and better than Mark V. I am using Donic Coppa on both my C-pen blades: Avalox BT777 and Stiga Hybrid Wood.

This rubber is a true classic from Donic and is worth the money. I definitely recommend it!

This rubber may have been around for some time, but it still delivers exceptional performance. It is one of the best rubbers I have used to date, and it serves as my forehand (FH) rubber.

This rubber allows me to play creatively and offers impressive flexibility to suit many types of playing styles. I can produce slow, spinny loops, loop drives, and flat hits with ease. Additionally, blocking and the short game are also very controllable with this rubber.

I couldn’t ask for more!

I have a strong appreciation for the old Donic Coppa rubber. It excels in looping and chopping, offering great control and an impressive dwell time factor, which I consider the best ever. Additionally, it is reasonably priced, making it my favorite overall rubber.

It’s worth noting that legendary players like Waldner and Persson used this rubber during their prime years. Waldner, in particular, is often regarded as the best player of all time, which speaks volumes about the quality of this product. Furthermore, the old Donic Coppa allows for speed gluing, unlike its newer versions.

This rubber is essentially designed for players seeking a balance of speed and control, along with a significant amount of spin.

I have primarily used it on the backhand, paired with a Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive Blade in a shakehand grip.

When you develop a good feel for this rubber, you will undoubtedly feel like a champion while playing with it.
