Der Materialspezialist Störkraft

Review of Der Materialspezialist StörkraftProbably one of the most deceptive anti-spin rubbers that still gives you enough control (I'm using the slowest version).Top sheet may not be glued good enough and may start separating from the sponge on edges so some extra gluing may be required (which is a pretty easy fix) if such a case occurs. All frictionless anti-spins can start getting slightly noticeable grip after some time and it looks like this rubber is not an exception which is totally normal for this type of rubbers. It requires quite some time to start controlling Störkraft as it's not an easy rubber to play. It has a lot of potential and can really kill your opponent's confidence if used properly :) , especially if we speak about those looping robots who don't have enough experience against anti-spin and long pips ox rubbers. If an opponent is smart and skilled enough and starts making adjustments to their game then be prepared to deal with flat long shots targeting your anti-spin - ability to play short with placement variations plus some twiddling should be the response in this case.

Review of Dr. Neubauer ABS 2 EvoI played with Yasaka Anti Power and Nittaku Best Anti for quite some time - both are great classic anti rubbers. Recently decided to try ABS 2 Evo 2.5mm and have been playing with it for a few weeks now. I have to say that it plays quite differently compared to YAP or NBA. It has no grip at all and is slower. Spin reversal is definitely better than with classic antis. Very good control too, it's possible to return short balls with unexpected wide angles. When blocking loops the racquet angle should be open (vertical) otherwise the ball will go into the net. Attacking is more difficult than with YAP or NBA but is possible after you start feeling the rubber better. It's a slow rubber so the main point of attacking here is placing the ball where your opponent doesn't expect it to go. I also found that I can chop pretty good with it from mid-distance. Chops are low and spin depends on your opponent's shot which can be quite deceptive as the trajectory of the ball after I chop is pretty much the same regardless of the incoming spin. If they serve flat long to my BH I step back and chop, and the ball looks as if it has quite a bit of backspin (but there's none in fact), so in many cases opponent just over-attacks it or returns some "uncertain" ball that I have a chance to attack back. Overall it's a rubber with a lot of potential but it takes time to learn how to use it. If you're switching from an inverted rubber I'd suggest to play with some classic "grippy" anti for some time first, get used to it, and then try a frictionless antispin rubber.Jun 23, 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
