Review of Dawei 388C-1I tested the Dawei 388C-2 rubber, medium pips OX, and had the following impressions: it performs better close to the table or at mid-distance (for chopping), but requires precision in stroke execution. It works well for attacking underspin balls. The almost flat push shot generates a slight topspin, similar to a long pips rubber. This rubber produces very little spin. The pips are relatively flexible and spaced apart. I found it nearly impossible to produce topspin with this rubber, unlike the Yinhe Pluto 1.5 mm medium pips, which makes that possible. Even when blocking with the Dawei 388C-2, I found it a bit odd—more like a long pips than a short pips rubber—more suited for defense, returning awkward, somewhat dead balls. It was fun to test this rubber, but for a medium pips style involving both defense and attack, I think there are more interesting options on the market.
