Stiga DNA Hybrid XH

Being a coach, it’s a tough task to choose new rubbers as they are expensive and less durable. I am in love with the features of this rubber. This is one rubber in which I can hit flat, topspin, play close table rallies and distance. I cannot say much about the durability factor but it’s been a month and it’s still going good. One of its kind, Stiga has introduced a tacky rubber. Good for aggressive playing. Go for it.

Good rubber. Great control. Low throw angle, very spinny, and decent speed. Used in max thickness on 7-ply offensive plus blade (backhand). I feel as though I can do everything with this rubber. Like a faster skyline, or a slower Dignics 09C.

A perfect rubber to enhance offensive play, its hybrid characteristic helps to handle any type of ball with any effect with great ease, in attacking shots and topspin it powers up and catapults the ball with great spin and speed.

Looks like ESN people have finally figured out the formula of rubber that can be a great alternative to H3 even without booster. Very grippy, very predictable, and easy to handle, produces balls loaded with spin challenging for opponents. On my Stiga Legacy Carbon, it feels really hard, but it lands all kinds of shots in the right spot effortlessly - blocks, loops, drives, flicks, chops, and even flat hits (which is not typical for such a hard rubber). All thumbs up!
