Customer review for DHS G888

External Review for DHS G888 on July 1, 2024

This is a typical Chinese rubber, hard sponge and top sheet surface with a tacky rubber, as TTCP wrote. I've been using it for about 2 months, tested it and the first impression was that it has a lot of grip and tackiness, generating a lot of spin, which was a surprise, as hard sponge was completely dead and hard to feel the strokes in that condition. I order a pair for myself and boost it with parafine oil in two passes, maybe I should make 3 passes but...
Sponge softens a little bit, but it is still hard and FH-only rubber for me, with amazing spin and blocks, smashes, chops and pushes, with great control!
Flicks with this rubber are easy and precise, but slow, so you must plan each deployment carefully.
Perfect for defense and all-round play style, but I enyoj playing with it, as I like looping and heavy spin stroke exchange...it is hard to control it far from table.
I like it and I will purchase another pair...put it on off or off+ blade without hesitation.
Additional note: after 2 months boosting effect with paraphine oil wanished, so it becomes dead, and need tuning... tackines is still there.
