Quattro Formula (Donic)

Incorporates Speed Gluing Effect, But Is Not Too Fast
Experts have known it for a long time: while speed gluing makes rubber faster, the dominant effect is to make the rubber softer and - at least subjectively - to produce better ball control - despite the speed-glued rubber being spinnier and faster.

By adding Formula tuning to our QUATTRO rubber, we have increased the performance, but we have limited the speed to ensure that you can easily keep the rubber under control. As a result, new QUATTRO Formula rubber incorporates all the traditional advantages of speed glue, while giving more ball control and higher precision. This makes QUATTRO Formula ideal for allround players and players who prefer good ball control.

No other rubber has ever provided such a good feeling with relatively high speed.

Donic's quattro formula rubber is allround with tensor technology. In my opinion, it is not that great of a rubber for advanced players. maybe for beginners it is a good choice, but for advanced attackers its too slow.

Basically, the speed is very mediocre, not near as fast as tenergy or other tensors. It is somewhat spinny, and the sponge is relatively soft. So it is okay for looping very spinny balls, such as countering underspin or high arc loops. But the poor speed of the blade will just not get you anywhere.

For defensive purposes, it is pretty good for blocking. The control is pretty good for doing things such as blocking or counterlooping.

I would not recommend this rubber for anyone who is advanced.
