Reviews of Donic Acuda S3 (42)

This rubber suits you if you are trying to use off+ blade, it's a bit too slow with my Yasaka Ma Lin carbon. Tackiness isn't really there for backhand loop if you need it. Control is good for pushing, spin is also generated quite well. But if you are learning and trying to go advanced, you shouldn't buy this rubber. and it doesn't feel tensorized

very good rubber for player bloque
Review helpful?    Yes | No

I used this rubber on my BH with a Nittaku Septear blade(OFF) for about 1 year before I changed. I found this rubber to be the best do-it-all rubber I have ever tried, it was really easy to block loops that had lots of topspin and it was fairly easy to create spin as well. Compared to the Tenergy 64 I had on my FH the Acuda was superior, it had better spin, control, durability, the only thing that Tenergy was better at was smashing the ball. Weirdly enough the Tenergy was not faster by a whole lot. I occasionally tried the rubber on my FH and it was super comfortable to loop and attack with. So far it has been the best rubber I have used, but I do nothave loads of other rubbers to compare it to since I am only 13, I have played for 6 years so I still know my fair amount of table tennis.
