Hello Pingskills,

I would like to hear your comments on these rubbers, I am planning to change my Donic Sonex JP Soft for I think it is worn out and it has negatively affected my forehand strokes.

1. Donic Coppa JO Platin

2. Donic Coppa JO Platin Soft

3. DHS Hurricane 3 

Also, could you share the difference between the Provincial and National version of DHS Hurricane 3?

I am open for other rubber suggestions. I am a one-winged looper (forehand). I use Stiga Optimum Sync blade.

Regards,

Mars

Hi Mars,

I don't have any experience with these rubbers.  What I would say to you though is, you will be bale to play equally well with all of those options.  The much more important thing is how much you train.

The Hurricanes is quite different to the Donic. Its less speed, but more spinny due to tackiness- so better control-but its lot heavier. Get the Donic, over DHS, since u used JP. Ive also used the JP, theyre good. The best is Coppa Silver, but they discontinuing that line. It plays better then the Gold in my opinion, its can smash as well as it loops. I dont know about the Plat series. But the New line Coppa X3 Silver should be the same I think.

Actually, I did some research, and got myself some gambler outlaw rubbers, they apparently play closest to butterfly tenergy but at fraction of the price. $12! I got them in 2.0, cause max was out of stock, but still they one of the best rubbers so far, cost/performance. More versatile than H3, I reckon. But also a new Xiom Ignito Blade also did the trick too.

Hi Peter!

Thanks for your insights! 

I have a few questions though. One is, do you prefer tacky rubbers? Next is, how different is the Tenergy compared to the Donic JP in terms of looping?
