Butterfly Ilius S is a completely new long pip top sheet with a brand new sponge. When long pips rubber has hard sponge, the pimples will bend more, thus greater effects will be obtained. Generally, the harder the sponge, the more difficult it is to control as the speed of the ball off the racket gets faster. However, Absorber Sponge Heavy absorbs the energy of the opponent's ball well even during hard impact, so you can have high stability while taking advantage of the long pimpled effect. In addition, the durability of the top sheet has more than doubled compared to the Feint Long III, which has a similar pimple shape. This is due to the compounds used to achieve durability whilst maintaining the performance of the rubber. The top sheet is rather hard with pimples whose aspect ratio is at the highest limit permitted to extract the features of the rubber. The combination of the top sheet and Absorber Sponge Heavy makes it easier to play a push stroke and to return an opponent's attack with a low defensive stroke with heavy spin or with minimal spin. The rubber is recommended for defensive players, enabling subtle changes as well as stability in rallies.

Butterfly Ilius B is a completely new long pip top sheet with a brand new sponge, Absorber Sponge Drop. When long pips rubber has hard sponge, the pimples will bend more, thus greater effects will be obtained. Generally, the harder the sponge, the more difficult it is to control as the speed of the ball off the racket gets faster. However, Absorber Sponge Drop absorbs the energy of the opponent's ball well even during hard impact, so you can have high stability while taking advantage of the long pimpled effect. The top sheet is also rather hard with pimples whose aspect ratio is at the highest limit permitted to extract the features of the rubber. The combination of the top sheet and Absorber Sponge Drop provides a high performance when playing a short stroke over the table, such as chop block. In addition, innovative attacking and defensive play are both possible, thus making best use of the characteristics of the long pimples, such as a low penetrating backhand with minimal spin. In addition, the durability of the top sheet has more than doubled compared to the Feint Long III, which has a similar pimple shape. This is due to the compounds used to achieve durability whilst maintaining the performance of the rubber.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS 

• Ilius B is the first long pimpled rubber with Absorber Sponge Drop, developed by Butterfly
• This new hard sponge really shines close to the table for blocking, chop blocking, and drop shots
• To accentuate the long-pip effect, the pimple shape is as thin and high as ITTF rules allow
• Designed for shot/spin variation and easy attacking, making it easy to keep the ball low
• Recommended for players that want both innovative attacking and defensive play

Acuda S1 is a very-fast rubber with outstanding spin qualities. Close to or away from the table, it is possible to play loop-counterloop as in the days of speed-glued rubber. Despite its medium-hard sponge, Acuda S1 is easily controlled and has a great feel. You can count on Acuda S1, even in an awkward situation. This rubber may be fast, but ball control is excellent.

Basic character: spin-optimized, high-precision fast rubber. Player's style: aggressive, first-ball attack, close to the table. Top sheet: Spin-Elastic.

Forehand rubber for uncompromising topspin players looking to gain an advantage when serving and returning serves
Very hard! Maximum dynamics and heavily curved ball arc when playing topspin strokes, incredibly grippy
Technology: Full tension sponge, tacky topsheet. Heaviest (90 g) and hardest sponge (60°) in the BlueGrip series

THE FUTURE IS ALREADY HERE
Versions V1 and R1 of the BlueGrip were already a revolution: The best of both worlds in one rubber! Now DONIC is taking this development one step further. With the BlueGrip C1 and C2, DONIC has added two versions to this series that outshine everything that has come before them. The following
also applies to these two versions: The DONIC BlueGrip has a tacky, Chinese-style topsheet, along with a sponge with a powerful catapult effect and incredible dynamic properties, the likes of which we only see from rubbers from Japan or Germany. But there is more – these dynamic properties have now been increased even further. With a sponge hardness of 60°, the C1 version gives the ball an even greater arc when playing topspin strokes and provides even more speed, while the C2 has a slightly softer sponge and subtle differences in the pimple geometry, all of which provides further support for the softer playing feel.

Uncompromising offensive players that rely on speed and spin.
Powerful catapult effect, incredibly spinny.
Technology: Full tension sponge, tacky topsheet. Slightly softer and significantly lighter than the C1 with values of 55° and 80 g respectively.

The Success Story of the Bluegrip Series Continues

The new component in the BLUEGRIP J series combines the strengths of two rubber sheets. Under the direction of the new DONIC partner Zhang Jike, a symbiosis of the BLUESTAR A and BLUEGRIP C series was created. The top sheet mixture of the BLUESTAR A provided the basis for this combination, while the sponge structure and the geometry of the top sheet pimples are identical to those of the BLUEGRIP C. The result is a new rubber sheet that meets the highest demands: very dynamic and extremely spin-friendly, powerful and yet with good feeling.

Three versions are also available in this DONIC rubber series: BLUEGRIP J-1 is the hardest version, J-2 the medium version and J-3 the softest sponge version. China's superstar Zhang Jike personally spent countless hours of testing during the development work to perfect the fine-tuning of the nuances. The result is an impressive mix of the positive characteristics of two proven rubber series, the DONIC BLUEGRIP J. The fact that this new series with the “J” is named after him, Zhang Jike has more than deserved.

THE ROTATION FIGHTBACK!
DONIC presents an exciting innovation: The answer to the plastic ball loss of rotation conundrum! 
BlueGrip is the first rubber sheet which has a Chinese style sticky top sheet in combination with a blue sponge with inbuilt speed glue effect. BlueGrip combines the best of two worlds – and made in Germany.

Our product developers were set the challenge: How is it possible to compensate for the loss of rotation which the plastic ball has cause without losing the speed and dynamism of rubber sheets with inbuilt speed glue effect? The result is the BlueGrip. Our answer to the plastic ball is available in two versions.

BlueGrip R1
An extremely grippy top sheet combined with a blue, fine-pored sponge which guarantees a powerful catapult effect. A rubber sheet that perfectly supports an attacking game from both sides. The DONIC BlueGrip R1 has a slightly softer feel and helps to compensate for the loss of spin that the plastic ball has entailed.

The longer dwell time when hitting the ball results in significantly more rotation on serves and returns. All that made in Germany!

The BlueGrip R1 – back to the future! Table tennis as it used to be thanks to tomorrow’s technology.
