This Paddle Palace Custom Paddle features the Dr. Neubauer Firewall Plus flared-handle blade, assembled with red Stiga DNA Platinum S (2.1mm) & black Dr. Neubauer Viper Soft (1.0mm) rubber.
THE BLADE: The Dr. Neubauer Firewall Plus is similar to the Firewall, but the first thing you will notice is the Firewall Plus does not have the shaking sound of the Firewall. This enhancement of Dr. Neubauer’s best-selling allround blade has a slightly modified plywood compostion and still offers an excellent control. Firewall Plus enables a dynamic offensive game with reversed rubbers or short pimples. The ball can be accelerated easily for both hitting and looping thanks to its balsa core. This blade also offers a very good feeling for all passive strokes. It produces high spin reversal and fast attacking possibilities through aggressive pushing or lifting when used with long pimples..
RED RUBBER: Stiga DNA Platinum is the latest addition to STIGA's DNA series that features a new generation of table tennis rubbers from Germany. The unique rubber composition provides an excellent grip, allowing the player to strike the ball from really challenging angles. The short pimples together with the thin top sheet means that DNA Platinum can accommodate a thicker sponge (up to 2.3 mm), which gives you additional speed and power in the game. Thanks to the PSC (Power Sponge Cell) technology, you get a longer ball trajectory with more power in your stroke and an aggressive arc in loop play. The sponge pores also enhance the contact between the rubber and the blade, which means that you get that sought-after, crisp sound in your stroke.
BLACK RUBBER: Dr. Neubauer Viper Soft is a long pimples rubber with friction - The soft alternative. Viper quickly become one of the most versatile and effective long pimple rubbers on the market. VIPER SOFT is a new development with even softer pimples. The rubber produces a low bouncing, wobbly ball both while blocking passively and for chop-blocking. The new rubber formula also allows for more backspin while chopping from behind the table. Dr. Neubauer managed to keep the outstanding attacking possibilities of VIPER for this new version, thus creating a long pimple rubber that excels in a variety of fields.
