This is my go to BH rubber now that I've managed to improve my technique. Really good for fast attack and exceptional for blocking. Spin potential is alright for a euro tensor - if DHS Hurricane is 10 I would probably rank this one at 7 - similar to T05 but worse than D09C imo. I am using Loki Telson 100 and DHS Hurricane 8-80 for backhand on my other blades and those have longer dwell time and better spin potential so it's a bit easier to topspin attack under-spin serves with those than with the DNA Platinum. If executed well though this rubber can produce absolutely disgusting and lightning fast returns which my opponents couldn't handle - you just need to be much more precise and active with your return. The faster you can hit the ball the better the chance of it clearing the net which was the main issue for me. I might try the M version in future as it's supposed to be slightly slower and has better dwell but for now I'll be using this rubber. Blade is Hurricane Long 5.
Update: after playing a bit longer with this rubber it has one major downside - you have to engage sponge if you want good spin, otherwise the ball falls into the net much more than with other rubbers. It's not an issue in itself but paired with monstrous speed the ball can go out a lot. In short it's very hard to attack short and slow backspin serves with this rubber. Platinum M or S might be better in this regard but they would also be slower (imo speed is the main selling point of this rubber). For FH it's still top notch though. I will be trying DNA Hybrid for BH instead, if that doesn't work will probably go back to DHS Gold Arc 8
