DIAMANT by Dr Neubauer is a versatile half-long pimpled rubber designed for excellent control in various playing situations. Its soft pimples and specially developed sponge offer control for service returns, blocking, attacking, and defending. With a sponge thickness of 1.5, 1.8, or 2.1mm, DIAMANT allows for dynamic attacking play, including counter-attacking, lifting, and smashing. The rubber excels in attacking against chopped balls, making it easy to lift backspin and execute powerful smashes for direct points. With a thin 1.2mm sponge, DIAMANT enhances disruptive effects close to the table, providing a multipurpose weapon with control and disruptive capabilities. Notably, DIAMANT is unaffected by the ITTF ban on frictionless long pimples, remaining homologated for tournament and championship use.
