Dr Neubauer MATADOR Blade - Fast Green Sponge - Frictionless Antispin Training

[@rakishman1313]

Good test I too believe the slow sponge is the way to go for backhand for safety and deception and have a killer forehand when the opportunity presents itself

[@rinforzandott6827]

Surprising ! Apparently the green sponge is the best with the Vortex from Spinlab, but I can clearly see there are better sponge combination with the ABS

[@AndreaAschi]

Since I have also a red Vortex topsheet I can test it on the same setup.

[@permyakovkirill2195]

hi. and when the sponge changes , the spikes enter it and the surface of the anti becomes uneven ? with long spikes , no problem , but I can 't do it with anti

[@markusmaier2325]

I think the reason this looks different and feels harder is because of the red ABS topsheet. You played the colors different before. Here you also do much more chopping with the anti than usual.

[@Pablo-vr8sv]

Primo ! Auguri Andrea 😉

[@zapatherox8633]

Could you share how you separate the rubber and the sponge?

Hello, I like your style and thank you for this video. I play also with Matador, but I can't find good fh rubber for this blade. Please, which rubber use you?

[@AndreaAschi]

Hi Petr! The choiche depends on your personal preferences. I play better with medium hard rubber so I chose a donic Bluestorm Z2. The Matador blade not being too stiff you can opt for a harder rubber. 😉

[@hengkyrakhman2389]

1.5, mm, 1.8 mm, 2.1mm,or 2.3 mm that used on your abs evo?

[@AndreaAschi]

It was not the original sponge. I was trying the 2 mm green sponge by SpinlabItalia.

[@amiramidi1414]

How do you like the blade? I’m currently using the joola aruna off blade with dtecs ox but thinking of changing to dr nuebaur blade but not sure witch one yet with the new abs anti

[@AndreaAschi]

Hi Amir! I liked the blade, it has a good control and speed, but I prefer a more powerful blade like the one i use (Stiga Carbonado 190). For antispin rubber i would recommend a stiffer version of the classic matador. ;)

[@Doogeex]

@@AndreaAschi I have a Matador Texa Carbon with Barna Super Glanti 0.8 on it, very good combo

[@AndreaAschi]

@@Doogeex Sounds good! I think that the combination stiff blade/slow anti is better than slower blade/fast anti. You should also upload videos! ;)

[@markusmaier2325]

Matador is the best blade by Dr. Neubauer! You should rather more use Matador Texa since you are used to Carbonado Most effective Pro plays are using rather more slower controlled blade with faster Anti.

[@AndreaAschi]

@@markusmaier2325 Matador is the only blade from Neubauer i tested. I can not compare with others. As an amateur player i think that, at a level as low as mine, a slower anti is more useful. (if the forehand skills are good) Pro are pro...they do a different sport! :D

[@JVVLOGTV]

Is this blade good for pimples

[@AndreaAschi]

Yes, it's great for pimples! Matador is a perfectly balanced blade 👍🏻

[@benzeman54]

Il joue avec quel anti?

[@AndreaAschi]

Dr. Neubauer A-B-S topsheet Spinlab green sponge 2.0 mm

[@GeneralSpecific3]

It seems to trade reversal for speed and disruption. That's not necessarily a bad thing. I think it's good if you can control it

[@AndreaAschi]

it's exactly like that! Excellent combination for aggressive shots but with the downside of less control in the passive game.

[@markusmaier2325]

@@AndreaAschi the green sponge has most control of all sponges by Spinlab! The sponge is too thick, you should try 1,5.

[@AndreaAschi]

​@@markusmaier2325 Hi Markus! If we are talking about control i disagree. ;) The green is the spinlab' sponge with less dampening effect i've tried.

[@markusmaier2325]

@@AndreaAschi dampening is not control 😂 green is still too slow

[@AndreaAschi]

Yes but green sponge is hard. With a soft sponge I play safer=more control. If you are trying to block a fast topspin the sponge helps you little.

[@sandykurniawan9697]

Is this combination blade? I mean difference speed betwen fore hand side, and back hand side....thank you

[@AndreaAschi]

No, the Matador is not! The Matador Texa Carbon is a combination blade.

[@sandykurniawan9697]

@@AndreaAschi thank you very much for your information.

[@ThePronalazac]

Hi Andrea, if i buy hard stiff blade, what sponge to get for Storkraft 1.2 the middle of 0.8 and 1.6, and to get Storkraft or maybe Scandal, what do you suggest :)

[@AndreaAschi]

Hi Viktor! To begin with, I always recommend the maximum thickness. But the choice also depends on the type of opponents you usually find. The higher the level of the opponents, the more a thick sponge allows you to play safely.

[@jesuscardozo07]

bro..... blade: matador neubauer have a side fast and other side slow? or both side are slow?

[@AndreaAschi]

Dr. Neubauer Matador does not have one side faster than the other. They are the same. (medium-fast)

[@ndragon88]

Did you ever get to try this blade with your usual slower sponge? or any slower sponge. I am considering to get this blade, but atm if i go anti I will probably stick with what I have, Stiga Clipper also 7ply stiff but faster

[@AndreaAschi]

No, I didn't try Matador with any other sponge. If you are interested and if i have time i can test the pink sponge on it.

[@ndragon88]

@@AndreaAschi Would love to see and hear your opinions on that. But its up to you really lol

[@AndreaAschi]

@@ndragon88 i will do what i can! ;) ps: stay tuned. in 10 minutes i will release a video you'll enjoy :D

[@andreasweiss8195]

Hallo Andrea! After weeks of looking at your videos and writing also to Joachim and NJ I made a choice for my first real Anti racket. It's Matador + Bluestorm 2.1 Z2 VH + ABS pro BH. Just one more question. I want to block solid with spin reversal and I also want to hit with my Anti as well. I have a Störkraft 2.3 pink sponge (with the wrong blade) at home. I can hit with it, so I got the technic. Finally my question😁: What sponge thickness do you recommend for the ABS Pro or should I buy a 'just in case' sponge, too.

[@AndreaAschi]

Hi Andreas!! That's seems a very good and balanced setup! I will try too Matador and ABS PRO in the near future. ABS PRO is only available with the 2.0mm sponge. 😉

[@andreasweiss8195]

@@AndreaAschi Oh my goodness🤣🤣 Sorry, I didn't know.

[@andreasweiss8195]

@@AndreaAschi I tried it by now. Unfortunatly the ABS Pro was damaged. So I had to send it back. But I could at least try it for one training. It is way to slow to hit with it. And the spinreversal is very weak. It can be good if you use it only to change the rhythmn of the game or if you tweedle a lot. Next stop Störkraft 1.2 on Matador Texa Carbon. We'll see

[@andreasweiss8195]

Didn't work eather. Störkraft is so slow even with a thin sponge. If you have an opponent that plays defense, you hardly get the Ball over the net. Last stop maybe ABS Evo. If this one doesn't work I will go back to LP.

[@tt5cerchi]

Ciao Andrea! Innanzitutto complimenti! Io uso il puntino lungo ox, che differenza c'è nei blocchi nel modo di usare l'antitop? Grazie 😉

[@AndreaAschi]

Ciao! Grazie mille. :) Se parliamo di block al tavolo con l'anti io cerco sempre di fare meno movimento possibile. Il puntino senza gommapiuma invece non potendo essere privo di attrito, quando usato al tavolo, per restituire inversione di effetto va usato di più il polso per smorzare la velocità. Spero di non aver detto una castroneria visto che io puntini a legno non li ho mai usati. Mi baso su cosa ho visto fare da altri! ;)

[@tt5cerchi]

@@AndreaAschi no è vero e il braccio lo tieni sciolto vero? Ps: sul dritto che gomma usi?

[@AndreaAschi]

Si! Cerco di tenerlo più sciolto possibile. In certe situazioni di gioco purtroppo ci si irrigidisce e il controllo ne risente. Sul diritto uso una Donic Bluestorm Z2 max.

[@tt5cerchi]

[@pnachtwey]

I have a DR Neubaurer Matador. It is OK. It isn't that good for looping and blocks well. I have had Buffalo and Megablock and Yasaka Power Anti mounted on it. I wasn't impressed. I am not impressed by anything else but games.

[@AndreaAschi]

You're right. It is ok. It's a very good blade for beginner antispin players because it has non-extreme characteristics.
