Donic Akkadi Taichi

grippy, not much pop, super cheap to buy in Taiwan for 7 dollars US only, I think it's good for newbies only.

Realmente son dos gomas diferentes, negra y roja, con dos esponjas diferentes y creo que con cierta pegosidad de más en la roja. Me parece una muy buena goma de inicio, dentro de la mallor dureza de la negra, con la que llevar a cabo una evolución amplia de los cimientos del juego. Es capaz de generar buenos golpes en todos los ámbitos, si bien no se va a llegar al top del nivel de uno con ellas. Muy recomendables. Para mí es más una goma para una madera algo elástica y que con algo de técnica y un buen trabajo de piernas puede generar problemas importantes en el contrario.

This rubber meant for you to hit harder where I suggest to put it on backhand and when you hit hard it can generate sufficient speed and spins to kill the opponent but looping from far of table may not be so ideal unless you counter attack by returning the ball with more strength. I tried to out in on forehand certainly not as good as other rubbers such as Harricane, Darker V, tenergy, etc. Control is identical where it does its job well but no surprises. Using it to counter attack on backhand was great I like the smashing sound as it shows that it has the power to kill but as I said it only does its job well from mid to near table only.

For 27$ it is a very good rubber with many gears, and has excellent control. I use 1.8mm with an off++ 7Layer blade (DHS PG7) on Forehand. In this combo it is good for defending and more than enough to deliver the kill shot too. It has lost most of its tackiness in 40-50 hrs of play, but is still a bit tacky and can poduce a decent amount of spin. Great for blocking and short game.

Im playing with the donic waldner black devil...perfect combi! pretty good for smashes tricky spins and sending the ball exactly at the table when ur opponent smashes and the ball goes 4-6 metres of the table!
