Donic Coppa X1 Gold

It is actually pretty nice rubber. I expected something faster but it's actually very close to Baracuda. It has a medium-low throw angle, speed oriented low arc and medium hardness sponge. The only problem I had with it was brushing and playing against choppers (it has a non tacky spin insensitive surface). For using it's full spin potential you need to push little bit harder and get the ball sink into the sponge. If you like this characterictic, it might be a good weapon for you. My overall rating is 8.5 which means a very good rubber but it's not perfect. It doesn't excel in any characteristic (you can find faster and more spiny rubbers on the market) but it's cheap and gets the job done well.

Good Rubber for forehand...Good speed and Control. Speed 8.8 to 8.9 Spin 8.9 Control 8.5 Weigth medium

I played the classic Donic Coppa (2.1 mm) very long with a Diode V blade which is a great setup for an allround style with chopping, lobbing, topspin, smash, etc. Lately I needed something similar but with little more speed, so I switched to the Donnic Coppa X1 Gold and wow, that rubber is exactly what I needed. It chops fantastic. Even better than the original Donic Coppa. Drive and Smash are fast and very easy to do. Lobbing and fishing is a breeze. Pushes are still very highly controlled. This is a fantastic rubber for an allround gaming style

SUPERB for flat hitting and spinny serves.Works great on BTY Korbel wood.

excellent rubber, great speed and superb control.
