Complete Guide

How to Choose the Right Table Tennis Rubber

Understanding Rubber Types

Inverted (Smooth) Rubbers

The most popular type among hobby and advanced players. The smooth surface provides excellent spin generation and control. Ideal for modern topspin-oriented playing styles. Our Donic Bluefire and Bluestorm ranges are premium inverted rubbers.


Short Pips

These rubbers have short, stubby pimples and offer less spin but more speed. Perfect for close-to-the-table blocking and counter-attacking. The Donic Slice 40 series is an excellent choice for short pip players.

Long Pips

Designed for defensive and disruptive play, long pimple rubbers reverse incoming spin. Popular among defensive specialists and all-rounders seeking variation.
