From manufacturer:

Speed	9.0 / 11
Spin	10.0 / 11
Control	6.0 / 11
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	8.8
Spin $<b>Spin</b> is the amount of ball rotation generated by the rubber. This is affected by the rubber\'s tackiness, sponge thickness, sponge hardness as well as the blade\'s flexibility.$	9.0
Control	8.4
Tackiness $<b>Tackiness</b> refers to the level of stickiness of the rubber surface. Traditional Chinese rubbers are usually tacky enough to lift a ball off the table by pressing the rubber on top of the ball, whereas traditional European and Japanese rubbers do not.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Very tacky</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Tacky</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium tacky</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Slightly tacky</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Completely non-tacky</td></tr></table>$	5.6 - Medium tacky
Throw Angle $<b>Throw Angle</b> is the angle that the ball is projected from strokes like the loop. For a topspin loop, a high throw angle will lift the ball higher. Tacky rubbers often have a higher throw angle. <br><br><b>Note: This rating refers to the topspin strokes only.</b> On an underspin chop, the same rubber with a high throw angle will actually produce a very low angle on a chop (it is reversed). This rubber should still be rated as high throw since the rating refers to topspin.<br><table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td></tr><tr><td>9+</td><td>Very high</td></tr><tr><td>7 - 9</td><td>High</td></tr><tr><td>5.5 - 7</td><td>Medium-high</td></tr><tr><td>3.5 - 5.5</td><td>Medium</td></tr><tr><td>1.5 - 3.5</td><td>Medium-low</td></tr><tr><td>Under 1.5</td><td>Low</td></tr></table>$	6.5 - Medium-high
Weight	5.6 - Medium-heavy
Sponge Hardness $<b>Sponge Hardness</b> refers to the density of the sponge. This is measured in degrees:<table class=\'smalldata\'><tr class=\'head\'><td>Rating</td><td>Description</td><td>Degrees</td></tr><tr><td>8+</td><td>Hard</td><td>45+ degrees</td></tr><tr><td>6 - 8</td><td>Medium Hard</td><td>43-44 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>4 - 6</td><td>Medium</td><td>41-42 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>2 - 4</td><td>Medium Soft</td><td>38-40 degrees</td></tr><tr><td>Under 2</td><td>Soft</td><td>under 37 degrees</td></tr></table>$	1.2 - Soft
Gears $<b>Gears</b> refers to a rubber\'s ability to produce a wide range of speeds. A rubber with a wide range of speeds (many gears) can produce slow speeds (on gentle strokes) and high speeds (on hard strokes). With few gears, you may always produce fairly slow balls, or always produce fairly fast balls on lighter and harder strokes.$	7.0 - Above average gears
Durability	7.8 - Lasts longer than average
Consistency	8.8
Overall	8.9 4.5

Description of Donic Traction MS Soft

The "SAT NAV" for your bat.
DONIC has attained new dimensions of progress with their brand new TRACTION rubbers. This innovative TRACTION TECHNOLOGY ensures better adhesion and stronger friction. Similar to satellite navigation our new TRACTION rubbers will despatch your top spin loops in the right direction.
TRACTION MS SOFT is the softer version, intended for the player who requires spin and control. Ideally suited as a backhand rubber for top players. In comparison to its harder "brother" TRACTION MS SOFT is somewhat more flexible. This rubber offers outstanding control, with a pleasant elasticity, yet it is very spinny. TRACTION MS SOFT - yellow sponge

Reviews of the Donic Traction MS Soft

Good rubber, worth it's price. This rubber is good for looping and smashing.

This rubber is really spinny, with a high throw and serious 'loading'; I love the powerful, high torque shots you can produce, and the ease with which I can vary the height and depth; Service spin is also noticeably easy to produce.

I guess these days you have to compare things to Tenergy... so this is like T-05, similar speed, similar throw, similar weight, a bit spinnier, 50% more dwell time.

I'm a bit surprised there isn't more hype/talk about it.

Worth every penny... which happens to be about $20 less than Tenergy at the moment.

this rubber is magical rubber, you can loop smash push all is great...a flexi or a stiff blade and u have yourself a weapon...i use it in a kris special...im a smasher and sometimes loop, but if u are a looper this rubber is great...i also used it in a joola rossi fire and it was a looping monster my friend who is 2375 told me he wanted to make the switch...it is simply an amazing rubber...idk why it does not have many reviews...
