It's similar to Fastarc G-1
Goes well with the Acoustic Carbon Inner
Meeting the ball is really easy
Somehow rallies tend to keep going
I think it's totally fine even for beginners to use
Stops are good too, since the sheet is strong it grips the ball tightly and the return stays low
But it's a bit on the heavy side, so I think doing some arm strength training would make it easier to handle
Personally I think this is a really great rubberAll Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard
Racket recommended use Acoustic Carbon Inner

The feel was good in a test hit and the ball really flew, so I bought the thick version. I've only hit with it today, but it felt like a mix of tacky-rubber hardness and tension-rubber flight. That might be because I'm using a blade with a hard top ply. When you hit a strong drive, the ball flies far more than you'd expect for thick sponge. I've never had a ball fly this much, so I was surprised. My friend also said that if you don't set your racket angle properly it looks like it'll fly right off the table.

Comrade table tennis university student (Experience: １１〜２０ years) Feels softer than the listed spec

Used max thickness on the backhand with a Carbonade 190.
First, this rubber's listed hardness is 50 degrees.
But since the sheet lets the ball sink in, in actual feel there's probably about a 2-degree gap. Hearing "50 degrees" makes it sound hard to get the ball to fly, but when I actually hit with it, I didn't feel that nervous about it.
As mentioned, since the sheet lets the ball sink in, it's very stable, and mid-distance backhand drives and quick loop drives get pretty solid power. For the short game, since it's a fairly hard rubber, you might make mistakes if you're not careful.
Finally, for table tennis club students who are thinking about stepping up their rubber a bit, I'd recommend playing it safe with the M (47.5 degrees) instead. The H is definitely long-lasting and a good rubber, but for fine touch shots it tends to cause mistakes.
My personal impression is that if you like hard rubbers, this feel might leave you wishing it were a bit harder. If you're after a really rock-hard rubber, I think you should consider a different one.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

It feels like an all-around rubber that handles every technique smoothly while still giving you power. It gets good spin too. The balance is great at a high level.
At first chopping felt like it flew a bit too much, but once you get used to it, I'd say it's relatively easy to handle among tension rubbers. The sheet is strong, so you won't get pushed around by your opponent's shots and can produce sharply cut chops. Pushes bite well too. Among the rubbers I've used, it felt a bit close to Q4, but this one has less quirkiness and feels great to play with. I think it's a rubber intermediate and above choppers can use on the forehand.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

I borrowed this from a friend and tried it out. I don't remember the blade, sorry. I think it was a 7-ply. Max thickness.
The sheet's surface looked grainy, kind of like Target Pro.
What stood out to me most was how strong the sheet is.
First, serves. I normally use a tacky rubber, but I could serve with a similar arc and spin. My backspin serves stopped dead on the table. I've hit with many tension rubbers, but this is the closest I've felt to a tacky rubber.Next, topspin rallies. I could return the ball really easily. Genuinely effortless. And the shots came out great. This is amazing.
Looping and speed-driving backspin balls was also easy. The arc isn't especially high, but I never felt scared of netting the ball. The spin was solid too.
The spin and speed were great, but I felt the control was a bit difficult.
I've hit with Fastarc G-1, Rakza 7, Rakza X, Target Pro 47 and others, but I think DNA H is the best rubber so far.
I'd love for Tenergy users to try this too. Since it also lasts a long time, I feel like more people will switch to this rubber.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

All the DNA rubbers feel soft, that's their selling point — the H feels like about 48 degrees. It gives an all-around feel similar to Rakza 7. On the other hand, it was easier to sink the ball into the sponge and get more spin than with Tenergy 05. When I used it for chopping, the ball flies slowly and holds well, so I could swing through with confidence, and even at thick it gives power on counters — above all it has great balance and is easy to control, I think! It's almost like a "surume" (dried squid) rubber — the more you use it, the more flavor it gives, and if you get used to it and can produce different kinds of shots, the ball goes exactly where you want, so it's more about rally strength like placing the ball than one-shot kills. Even if you catch the ball too deep it still covers for you, so it's just right for swinging through fully in matches too✨ The Platinum version came out recently, but I think the Pro version alone still has plenty of performance. Also, I got the impression it's like a Bluestorm Z1 with enhanced grip! People sometimes say it's similar to Fastarc G1, but honestly it's completely different. It doesn't fly off on its own so it's easy to handle, and for choppers who use G1, I'd actually recommend this one instead since it holds the ball better and lets you attack too✴ *2021 updated review

This is a new product from STIGA, a brand I strongly associate with short pips. I bought it on the recommendation of my regular equipment shop. Here's a comparison with the V-15 Stiff I was using before.
Speed: about the same
Spin: DNA-H
Control: V-15 Stiff
Grip: DNA-H
That's roughly how it breaks down. The strength of the German rubber's topsheet and the grip of the topsheet both feel great. The sponge is orange with large bubbles, giving it a Tenergy-like feel. However, it bounces quite a bit, so I'd recommend the Middle or Soft version for beginners. In terms of performance, it feels like it has completely surpassed the G-1.All Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard
