Sauer und Tröger Monkey

Long pimple - MONKEY

Target:

Crazy, Crazier, Monkey. A primal (forest) force! The Monkey is the next generation of long pimples. Playful lightness, impressive dominance and a touch of wit meet iconic design.

General:

The monkeys race through the forest and the whole monkey gang roars... ...who stole the (coconut) dots? This could be the first lines of the monkey song. But from the beginning: Be the coolest guy in the hall and teach your opponents to fear with the almost forbidden dangerous long pimple "Monkey"! The Monkey (also called "Ape" by many) manages to go to the table completely bored and without much effort and win his games. He doesn't even get down on his knees and lets his opponents run, make easy mistakes and despair.

You can achieve your sporting goals with the Monkey quite casually and effortlessly. The look: The stylish little heart-shaped glasses symbolise the Monkey's love of the plastic ball. The cool retro design is definitely reminiscent of the good old days...

Properties

Pimple structure:

The pimples of the Monkey long pimple rubber have a high aspect ratio and are quite far apart. This guarantees the greatest possible space for the pimple heads to buckle. The necks of the pimples are fairly smooth, the heads slightly roughened.

Dimple width:

The knob heads are quite wide. In combination with the roughened pimple heads, they ensure great rotation development. If you hit the ball well, your opponent will have a lot of problems. Pimple hardness

When light pressure is applied, the pimple heads give the impression of medium hardness. With higher pressure, however, they give way and create a soft and gentle feel. This ensures that the pimple plays in a controlled manner and that balls that are difficult for the opponent to predict can still be played with offensive strokes.

Sponge:

The sponge of the sponge version is a new type of cushioning sponge that does not play too "dead". Definitely worth a try.

Sebastian Sauer's tip:

The sponge version with its dampening sponge is also a real alternative for players who have previously played OX. Even if you haven't done it before, don't be afraid to go for the balls early and boldly with the "Monkey". You will see the results and you will be able to do things that you may not have been able to do before.

Conclusion:

Anyone who takes a closer look at the background of the "Monkey" will realise: Definitely the coolest of all table tennis rubbers. Coupled with outstanding playing characteristics, it is a favourite weapon at the table
