Dr. Neubauer · Allround Premium · Long pips

Allround Premium

The original all-round long pips: reversal with enough stability for active close-table play.

Allround Premium was designed for players who do not want to choose between defence and attack. Passive blocks reverse the incoming spin, while flat hits and pushes stay controllable. It is a separate product from Allround Premium 2 and is slightly slower and more forgiving.

Dr. Neubauer product photography is not licensed for TTDNA, so TTDNA renders its own neutral topsheet visualisation generated from verified construction data.

Approval status follows the Dr. Neubauer catalogue check recorded on the date shown. Dr. Neubauer sells its competition range as ITTF-approved coverings; any covering the catalogue lists as training-only is shown as not ITTF approved. No reliable official Dr. Neubauer list price is published per region, so no price is shown rather than an invented one.

Attackability85 / 100

Spin reversal is the returned rotation of the incoming ball. It is stored separately from the TTDNA spin rating, which measures the rubber's own spin production.

Strengths

  • Very high spin reversal on passive contacts

Weaknesses

  • Own spin production is minimal by design
  • Limited speed; points have to be won by placement

Best for

  • Players who disrupt rather than out-spin opponents
  • All-round players
  • Blocking players
  • Disruptive players

Not ideal for

  • Players who want to loop with this side of the blade
  • Players who want to hit through opponents

Variants and configurations

4 variants

Colour, thickness and configuration are variants of one model — never separate products. Colour never changes a rating, MAX and OX stay qualitative labels, and OX carries no sponge hardness.

Known users

Defenders, choppers and disruptive blockers who rely on spin reversal rather than their own topspin.

Dr. Neubauer publishes no athlete roster for this sheet, so TTDNA shows the player profile it is built for instead of invented names.
