Distinctive Characteristics and Playing Performance:

DNA Hybrid H is an advanced semi-sticky rubber designed for players seeking very high speed (~20.0/20), very high spin (~18.0/20), and good control (~8.0/20). Its semi-sticky topsheet, enhanced by H-Touch Tensor technology, ensures exceptional grip, enabling powerful spin generation and a high ball trajectory (8.9/10), ideal for topspin shots, aggressive serves, and play against backspin. The firm 50° sponge, reinforced with Power Sponge Cells (PSC) technology, creates an extremely strong catapult effect, delivering explosive power while retaining sufficient control during intense rallies. The rubber is particularly suited to advanced players who rely on fast topspin strokes, counter-topspin attacks, and aggressive close-to-table or mid-distance play, enabling quick and efficient point finishes.

H-Touch Tensor technology, developed using artificial intelligence and insights from professional players (China, Japan, Sweden), optimizes the interaction between the topsheet and sponge, providing a unique hitting feel and a distinctive crisp sound that helps players locate the "perfect contact point." The rubber is available in three sponge thicknesses: 1.9 mm for balanced attack and control, 2.1 mm for speed and spin, and 2.3 mm for maximum speed and aggressive shots. Player testimonials emphasize that the rubber "generates incredible spin and speed on topspin shots," "allows precise ball control in difficult situations," and "offers an outstanding power feel," making it ideal for players who prioritize dominance through speed and spin.

Topsheet Composition:

The DNA Hybrid H features a semi-sticky topsheet optimized for maximum spin and speed, utilizing H-Touch Tensor technology. The inverted pimples ensure strong ball contact, enabling very high spin generation (~18.0/20), particularly on topspin shots, aggressive serves, and backspin attacks. Compared to the DNA Dragon Power 52.5 (~19.8/20 speed, ~8.0/20 control, ~18.3/20 spin), the DNA Hybrid H offers slightly higher speed with comparable spin and control. Against the Butterfly Dignics 09C (~14.5/20 speed, ~8.5/20 control, ~16.5/20 spin), the DNA Hybrid H provides significantly higher speed and slightly more spin but slightly less control.

H-Touch Tensor technology enhances the topsheet’s elasticity and grip, prolonging ball contact and facilitating spin generation even in challenging scenarios, such as counter-topspin strokes or heavy backspin play. Players note that the topsheet is "highly effective for generating spin on loops," "stable against backspin," and "offers exceptional grip," making it ideal for players who value speed and spin. The semi-sticky surface is less sensitive to opponent spin than traditional sticky rubbers, easing serve reception and short-game play. Its durability is high, maintaining grip even under intense use when properly maintained.

Sponge Characteristics:

The DNA Hybrid H uses a firm (~50°) sponge that balances very high speed (~20.0/20), very high spin (~18.0/20), and good control (~8.0/20), delivering a "powerful yet controllable feel." Power Sponge Cells (PSC) technology optimizes the sponge’s pore structure, ensuring an extremely strong catapult effect and direct feedback, while unique cell reinforcement enhances rubber-blade interaction, producing a crisp hitting sound.

Sponge thickness options cater to different attacking styles:

• 1.9 mm: Balanced attack and control

• 2.1 mm: Speed and spin

• 2.3 mm: Maximum speed and aggressive shots

Compared to the DNA Dragon Power 52.5 (~52.5°, ~19.8/20 speed, ~8.0/20 control, ~18.3/20 spin), the DNA Hybrid H provides slightly higher speed with similar spin and control. Against the Butterfly Dignics 05 (~15.0/20 speed, ~8.0/20 control, ~15.5/20 spin), the DNA Hybrid H delivers significantly higher speed and spin with comparable control. Players highlight that the sponge "creates an incredible catapult effect" and "helps produce powerful topspin shots," especially in close-to-table and mid-distance play.

Spin and Trajectory:

The DNA Hybrid H excels in very high spin potential (~18.0/20), particularly on topspin shots, aggressive serves, and backspin attacks. The semi-sticky topsheet and firm sponge extend ball contact time, enabling heavy spin that disrupts opponents, especially during topspin and counter-topspin exchanges. The rubber’s trajectory (8.9/10), optimized by H-Touch Tensor, is high and arced, ensuring stable ball flight ideal for loops, counters, and backspin play. Players describe it as "exceptional for spin generation on loops," "stable against backspin," and "offering controlled trajectory," making it ideal for power-spin-oriented players.
