About DNA Dragon Power 52.5

Stiga DNA Dragon Power 52.5 is a 2026 inverted (pimples-in) sheet made in Sweden. It belongs to the DNA series, is ITTF-approved (code 68-069), and is aimed at offensive (OFF) players who want offensive close-to-table and mid-distance topspin.

DNA Dragon Power 52.5 uses pre-tensioned tensor sponge with a catapult effect and relatively low dwell and a grippy, non-tacky topsheet typical of European tensors. Manufacturer sponge hardness is 52.5° (Tensor); a cut sheet is about 45 g. Factory sponge thicknesses: 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, MAX. Sold with topsheet in Black and Red; sponge in orange. DNA is STIGA's German-made tensor wall. Platinum is the hardness ladder (M / H / XH), Pro a rung below, Hybrid a tackier topsheet, Dragon the spin-grip branch.

On the TableTennisReview 0–100 index the Combined figures are speed 82, spin 87 and control 81 (official mapping 82 / 87 / 81). That is a mid-to-high speed inverted profile for offensive close-to-table and mid-distance topspin. Hardness, weight and thickness above are factory facts — not lab tests.

Community score 8.1 / 10 from 94 reviews. Indicative European street price €40. Compare DNA Dragon Power 52.5 with other Stiga DNA and inverted rubbers on the same scale, or open the catalogue filters for OFF inverted sheets.

Factory thicknesses

Factory sponge thicknesses sold in Europe: 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1, MAX. These are shopping facts — Combined speed / spin / control on this page do not change with thickness.

1.8: Thinner inverted sponge. Allround and first-upgrade backhands live here more often than attacking forehands.
1.9: The usual club backhand thickness on inverted tensors. A bit more control, a bit less catapult than 2.1 / MAX.
2.0: Mid-thick. Common on the backhand when MAX felt lively, or as a two-wing compromise.
2.1: Still a thick attacking sponge. A small step down from MAX on some tensors — shops treat it as the other FH thickness, not a control sheet.
MAX: Thickest factory sponge. Most catapult on a tensor; the usual attacking forehand. Combined figures on this page are for the SKU, not a separate MAX score.
