DHS C8

I have been playing C8 for at least 5 years after I was getting bored at my own competitionlevel and needed some challenge. I dont recommend putting this type of rubber on your bat to compensate for lack of skills as it takes a lot of practice and technique to master it properly , as probably is the case with any type of pips. I use C8 on my forehand and it is an excellent rubber for counterhitting close to the table. It 'produces' enough speed and spinreversal to put your opponent into troublesome situations. Chopping works well too, though if you are dominantly a defender you may consider somewhat slower pimps offering better control. After 5 years only one of the pimples has been lost in the middle of the bat. Could be caused by hitting the table instead of the ball, dont know for sure. Anyway this rubber is quite cheap so there is no reason to complain after 5 years. Ignore the fact that these pimps are cheap, because they offer good quality. Highly recommended!

I didn't get along well with her. Initially, I felt an improvement in some receptions, but my blocks would constantly end up far away from the table. In addition, katos did not reverse the ball well, giving the opponent a chance to attack easily. I thought the problem was in my technique until a coach looked over and explained it to me. Her problem is the hardness of both the sponge and the topsheet. The ball practically does not sink into the spines. So, it behaves more like a medium pimple and not long. I changed the rubber and I could see the big difference. Therefore, I do not recommend.

Long time I was looking for perfect pimples and I found them. I tried curl p1,p4, feint long 3,grass, and many cheap ones, but c8 gives me everything what I need. Close to the table i can be aggressive and to hit with my forehand., chopping away from the table is fast and lots of spin reversal , hitting with them for surprise attack are great. Pushing close to the table against backspin stays low and hard for the opponent. Perfect pimples for modern defense

I used this rubber.. For me its a rubber with a little more speed and effect, losing the blocking and deception capacity. Not very good on blocking, perhaps for a type of player that plays away form the table.

Excellent rubber, very good to chop from afar and block at medium distance and possibly up close too, very easy to make smooth strokes and of course hit flat, but difficult to receive services and return them cut as it is a fast rubber, but that It is remedied with a defensive wood since I have an offensive wood and also a disturbing effect that can be a headache for some players.
