vibration dampers on the market and each of you will definitely have your own preferences. Vibration dampers generally reduce string vibrations, making the impact of the ball quieter and protecting your arms and joints in the long term. We once asked Andreas Maurer, former No. 24 in the ATP world rankings and German Davis Cup player with Boris Becker, whether he prefers a damper and has a tip for you.
The answer was clear: Andreas Maurer is absolutely thrilled and convinced by the “Topspin Damper Kringel” :
The Topspin “Kringel” is a very special damper because it is extremely soft and much larger and heavier than most dampers. Thanks to the soft rubber, it optimally absorbs the impact of the ball in the event of incorrect hitting points. This means it is particularly gentle on the arm.
The extra weight means the racket has more mass in the racket head. This makes it easier to get over the ball with drive and topspin shots - especially when serving.
The “Kringel” vibration damper from Topspin costs €1.90. It can be ordered from Spodeco GmbH, which owns the Topspin brand.
