TRACTION MS PRO is the harder alternative for top class players. The taut top rubber surface and relatively hard sponge guarantee steep penetration and length with all top spin strokes. TRACTION MS PRO is ideal for aggressive services and returns due to the grippy top surface of the rubber. It also gives sufficient control for more defensive strokes.

...now even more vicious !
Even more sound and control due to the softer sponge.
The new FORMULA DONIC BARACUDA BIG SLAM rubber with inbuilt speed glue effect produces fantastic spin. With DONIC BARACUDA BIG SLAM the ball leaves the blade in a conspicuously higher arc, giving considerably more spin. The increased rotation of the ball stabilises the flight and increases speed. The results are convincing after a few hours of training to become used to this modern rubber. Accuracy of placement is visibly improved even for top players. DONIC BARACUDA BIG SLAM offers that extra margin of safety even in the tightest situation, and not only when engaged in a high risk top spin game.
DONIC BARACUDA BIG SLAM?s top rubber surface has been newly constructed to minimise abrasion. The happy result: more playing hours with a surface that remains intact without noticeable abrasion. |

The sound of speed gluing has been captured in Desto F3 BigSlam generates a loud crack when you hit the ball!
This is the loudest DESTO FORMULA rubber that DONIC has ever produced. DONIC DESTO F3 BigSlam reproduces the loud sound that you got during the classic times of speed gluing. The distinctive sound has been firmly and permanently incorporated into the rubber. BigSlam is somewhat softer, but not significantly slower than its successful sibling DESTO F3. It has the same amazingly simple ball control, but gives the same effect as optimum speed glue. Whether you prefer DESTO F3 or DESTO F3 BigSlam is a matter of taste or, should we say, of sound preference.
DONIC DESTO F3 BigSlam is recommended for players who value sound and outstanding ball control qualities rather than maximum speed. |

The happy medium: DESTO F2
DONIC DESTO F2 is the bridge between F3 and F1, giving great control at high speed. DONIC DESTO F2 is soft, has a good feel and the full sound of speed glueing. It produces far more speed than the traditional spin elastic rubbers, and the F3. It is, however, slower than DESTO F1. The DONIC DESTO F2 is soft and full of feeling, it has the speed glueing kick and of course, the excitement at play of the FORMULA DONIC technology.
We recommend DONIC DESTO F2 for the following players:
The DONIC DESTO F2 is for the player who in the past has used the traditional spin
elasticated rubber, but is searching for more playing fun and more speed and spin. Players who find the DESTO F3 a little too slow, but find the DESTO F1 just a little too fast will discover that the DESTO F2 will give that extra edge to all aspects of their game that they have been searching for. |

A wolf in sheep's clothing
At first, this rubber sheet may seem a modest development on the COPPA JO Gold from Jan-Ove Waldner, but as soon as it has been glued to the blade, this "grenade" sets an entirely new benchmark.
- COPPA JO PLATIN is definitely the fastest and spiniest rubber in the FORMULA DONIC series with incorporated speed glue effect.
- COPPA JO PLATIN develops extreme dynamics when playing slightly off from the table.
- The sound and speed glue feeling of the COPPA JO PLATIN are in a class of their own.
- The bounce of the ball with the COPPA JO PLATIN is both longer and higher and this improves control and increases speed.
- The new top sheet, despite its enormous speed, allows good touch for short balls, spin, serves and returns.
- The durability of COPPA JO PLATIN has been improved considerably.
COPPA JO PLATIN is superior to its competitors in all important aspects. It really deserves the Platinum label. A real wolf in sheep's clothing! We recommend the new DONIC COPPA JO PLATIN from Jan-Ove Waldner to the following players: The harder Coppa JO Platin is predominantly recommended for those players who used to use speed glue for medium to hard sponges. You want to achieve maximum power and the highest speed? Then Coppa JO Platin is the right choice. Perfectly suited for top players, too.

This is a rubber sheet that most players will feel very comfortable with, especially European players.
Coppa J. O. Silver is considerably softer, but due to its high built in speed glue effect, it plays like a medium hard, speed glue rubber.
It combines excellent control, very high speed and spin that is very close to that of professional speed glue rubber sheet.
Coppa JO Silver is just as powerful as the Gold version thanks to its softer sponge, it strikes a perfect balance between speed, spin, control and sound.
