Donic Gallardo Sound
|
Review of Donic Gallardo SoundThe Donic Gallardo Sound is a rubber not for everyone, especially to all-around players. It is more of an aggressive rubber, because it has a hard to generate perfect spin ability. Although it maximizes its power for control and spin, it has speed weakness. Due to its speed, I recommend use it as a FH rubber to a defensive blade. If paired with a defensive blade, that is where it continues its achievements. I recommend to use this on a Butterfly Joo Se Hyuk Blade, and maybe on a Friendship 729 Dr. Evil Pips. This rubber is extremely hard to master, even the Stiga Calibra LT Sound has a better performance than this. I can say when it comes to spin and control, it is best for defensive players. Not worth your money.

Donic Coppa JO Silver
|
Review of Donic Coppa JO SilverDonic Coppa JO Silver continues to amaze me, usually when paired to high standard Donic blades (I'm not saying its not good for other branded blades). The rubber is okay, not that bad, not that hard. There isn't anything much to worry about its main spin because I find it fun to generate some spinny services. I agree at some point that it is an ideal rubber for beginners, but it is nothing compared to the Gold version. Looping is fantastic here, but not so fun for controlling its throw angle. Don't worry, its still a good rubber, but a little too overpriced.

Friendship/729 GeoSpin Tacky
|
Review of Friendship/729 GeoSpin TackyThe GeoSpin Tacky is so highly developed, it is able to stand out to its magnificent spin and control. Although it does not aim high on speed (for me), it is an easy to use rubber, most specially for loopers, and for offensive players. The GeoSpin Tacky, though, does not match with all great blades. I recommend to use it on Stiga and Friendship 729 blades, unless one know's how to tap its potential.

Friendship/729 Super FX
|
Review of Friendship/729 Super FXI am (and will always be) using this cheap but high quality rubber of Friendship 729. The Super FX is quite similar to the GeoSpin Tacky and to the RITC 729. It is a very durable rubber, it could last more than the usual playing hours, unlike other rubbers that could easily wear off. This rubber is not good for beginners though, since it needs an attention of tons of training and getting used to. It matches perfectly with Friendship 729 blades and I use this on both my FH and BH. The feeling of it in the Forehand is quite powerful, especially when its newly cleaned and its tackiness is maintained. It can create tremendous spin, especially when you use some services that consume a lot of spin for the opponent to rebut. Unlike other rubbers, it has a hard sponge which is not the same when it generates its control against rubbers with soft sponge. It is a very underrated rubber, but gladly it makes up for its overall gladness. Looping is still a problem when you don't frequently clean it. But it doesn't wear off which is why it could last for months. 5 stars to a cheap good ol' rubber!

Yasaka Mark V
|
Review of Yasaka Mark VA simple rubber will always remain as a legendsry rubber.
I have always wanted to try out Yasaka Mark V from a long time because people all around said that this was an extraordinary rubber.
I got my chance to finally use it on both sides of a racket from a friend of mine. The blade was light and custom made, but when I lay my hands on the racket itself, it had a magic touch. It commands its own spin, and it is best in generating sidespin. Loopings are perfect especially for the beginners who have used it. It was a smooth feeling when I made topspin/drives. This rubber is so extraordinary, it is the perfect all around rubber. It is a recommended rubber for all types of players who want to generate spins all the time.
