Stiga DNA Platinum S
Rubber description:
This rubber is categorized as a tensor. It is characterized by its soft sponge composition, which offers significant power generation while maintaining a high level of agility during play. Users typically experience a lively feel that balances speed, spin, and control, making it a viable alternative to other established soft-sponge rubbers on the market.
Playing Characteristics
- Sponge Feel: The rubber features a soft sponge that provides a distinct feeling upon impact. It is well-suited for players who prefer a softer feel over medium or hard alternatives.
- Shot Versatility: While the rubber excels in flat hitting and executing chops, it performs differently depending on the specific playing style. Some users find it less effective for passive blocking due to the lack of structural support inherent in its soft composition.
- Performance Dynamics: It exhibits a moderate spin potential and a gear system that may feel limited to some players compared to harder variations. The throw angle is generally lower than that of traditional tacky, unboosted rubbers.
- Compatibility: The rubber remains consistent across various blade compositions, showing adaptability when paired with different carbon-based setups.

Review:
Hurricane 3 Unboosted exhibits a high throw angle, but its spin and gear effects are limited. Despite its softness, it lacks support for passive blocking. However, it performs well for chops and flat hits.
While the reviewer enjoys the DNA series, they prefer the medium or hard versions over the soft version. The reviewer suggests that the medium version is a significant improvement, and they rate the soft version 7/10 when price is not taken into consideration.
The reviewer expresses a preference for STIGA DNA Medium/Hard rubbers.

One of the best soft rubbers. I like it much more than Tenergy 05FX.
