Details
Designed for players who rely on heavy topspin and precision-based attacks. The medium-high throw angle allows for safer clearance over the net, making it easier to perform controlled loop drives and counterattacks. The sponge hardness of ~47.5° provides a well-balanced feel, offering stability on passive shots while maintaining explosiveness when attacking.
While it retains the tacky characteristics of the original Shining Dragon, the updated version provides better energy return, making it more suitable for modern offensive players who want a dynamic yet controllable rubber. Its high-arc trajectory makes it ideal for close-to-the-table looping and mid-distance rallies, while also performing well in spin-based serves and controlled blocks.
For players transitioning from Chinese-style tacky rubbers, Shining Dragon II offers a softer feel and easier handling, making it a more user-friendly alternative while still delivering the spin and precision expected from a tacky rubber.
