Tensor $<b>Tensor Rubber</b> - Tensor rubbers have a pre-tensioned rubber topsheet, already pulled tighter so it has some built in catapult effect to increase speed and spin. Normal rubbers don\'t have extra tension.$	Yes

From community:

Speed	9.1
Spin $<b>Spin</b> is the amount of ball rotation generated by the rubber. This is affected by the rubber\'s tackiness, sponge thickness, sponge hardness as well as the blade\'s flexibility.$	8.7
Control	8.0
Tackiness $<b>Tackiness</b> refers to the level of stickiness of the rubber surface. Traditional Chinese rubbers are usually tacky enough to lift a ball off the table by pressing the rubber on top of the ball, whereas traditional European and Japanese rubbers do not.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Very tacky</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Tacky</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium tacky</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Slightly tacky</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Completely non-tacky</td></tr></table>$	2.4 - Slightly tacky
Throw Angle $<b>Throw Angle</b> is the angle that the ball is projected from strokes like the loop. Assuming the loop stroke is the same, a high throw angle will lift the ball higher. Tacky rubbers often have a higher throw angle.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>9+</td><td>Very high</td></tr><tr><td>7 - 9</td><td>High</td></tr><tr><td>5.5 - 7</td><td>Medium-high</td></tr><tr><td>3.5 - 5.5</td><td>Medium</td></tr><tr><td>1.5 - 3.5</td><td>Medium-low</td></tr><tr><td>Under 1.5</td><td>Low</td></tr></table>$	3.3 - Medium-low
Weight	4.7 - Average

Gears $<b>Gears</b> refers to a rubber\'s ability to produce a wide range of speeds. A rubber with a wide range of speeds (many gears) can produce slow speeds (on gentle strokes) and high speeds (on hard strokes). With few gears, you may always produce fairly slow balls, or always produce fairly fast balls on lighter and harder strokes.$	6.8 - Above average gears
Durability	5.2 - Average durability
Consistency	7.1

Description of Donic Sonex JP Gold

Jorgen Likes to Have Everything Under Control. He is famous for his powerful backhand smash, yet experts say that his strongest weapon is his blocking game. Jorgen Persson's control on his backhand blocks is truly impressive compared to that of other players. He prefers to play with slightly softer rubber than other professionals. In fact, his choice of rubber is quite suitable for most table tennis players. Not surprisingly, the new SONEX JP GOLD points the way to the future of rubber with built-in speed-glue effect that incorporates speed and spin plus good control. It has the qualities that will be essential when speed gluing is banned!
We recommend Jorgen Persson's new DONIC SONEX JP GOLD for ambitious attackers who want a well-balanced rubber that has the effect of speed glue. This new generation of rubber offers a combination of excellent attacking characteristics with a built-in speed-glue effect.

sudarshan said this on November 13, 2009:

I think it is a classic rubber especially for attackers who need speed in their game .
it is wonderful for backhand .
you can do everythin including sidespin, a push with some backspin, lobbing ,topspin and of course smashes

Puck said this on May 18, 2010:

Very good rubber for offensive player.
Although its speed it' s easy to control.
I've used it for forehand in "max", on a carbon blade, and it was very powerful.

Cons: not very durable.

two thumbs up for this rubber!

I use this rubber on a Butterfly Timo Boll T5000. I use Sonex on my backhand and Donic Acuda on my forehand. This rubber allows you to flick with quite a lot of power and the perfect rubber for backhand attackers. This rubber is amazing at Mid-Distance loops, backhand topspins etc. Pushing and chopping characteristics is very nice it has a soft and spongy feel. The classic sound of it is unforgettable - the table tennis Lamborghini ;

not happy with this one.

pros:

very fast rubber with good spin and consistent overall capabilites, even pushes.
Spin variation very good. Allows for fast topspins near and away from the table.
I use it on FH 2.0 sponge maybe a bit too fast for my offensive/allround ner table game.
cons:
combination with my BTY Primorac Off- a bit doubtful
coming from slower/spinnier rubbers blade angle requires adaptation (more closed)

With Donic Ultra Carbon , rally is like drinking water, lobbing is like having a beer, loops are like having a juice, Smashes are like drinking Petrol and splashing it on the opponent's face (FIRE)
Maintain the control

Sounds awesome:-)

very good rubber

BlackQueen said this on February 23, 2013:

One of my favourite backhand rubbers. Thin, very flexible and spiny top-sheet, with medium-hard sponge gives a lot of possibilities in short and mid-distance games, good for blocking, looping, easy to flip , I can even chop with it from mid distance, even though, I do not do it very often, but found it very easy with this rubber. Pity DONIC doesn��t make it anymore�¦

a good backhand rubber for blocking flicking and loops
