Nittaku DO Knuckle Long 1

Best long pimples I’ve ever tried, good control, incredible attack, and so nice for the push game. Chop is so spinny but it’s hard to chop inside the table. I don’t recommend playing defense inside the table like chop-blocking style, but it’s better than using medium pips for knuckle.

I first used the DO Knuckle with a 0.5 mm sponge on a Neottec Kanji Def. I made a switch from soft rubber on the backhand to medium pimples rubber because I no longer have good mobility. Right from the start I liked it because I could use the technique I had with soft rubbers. In my opinion, compared to the Nittaku DO Knuckle Long 1 with 1.2 mm sponge, it requires less training to adjust the shots and is less dangerous for the opponent. Possibly with a thinner sponge, it would play differently. So, we are waiting for a good offer from TT11 :) to do some more tests. Good luck in tournaments and a Happy New Year!
