Honestly I bought this rubber because it looked cool on my BH: blue top sheet on blue sponge, that's beautiful on a blue-themed blade.
But actually I discovered it's a very decent BH rubber: good control, average spin and speed. It doesn't feel neither hard or soft. I appreciate the light weight. It seems durable.
Should be a good rubber for beginners too but there are cheaper options if you don't need the blue top sheet.
Not the best rubber around, and I wouldn't use it on my FH, but overall I'm satisfied.

Reviews of Donic Bluestorm Z3 (10)
Can't find a better medium to medium soft rubber. Good speed and spin and great for blocking. Very good on an OFF+ stiff blade. Ball placement comes very easy. Gives you the opportunity to accelerate speed when the need arises. Very good at looping, open-ups, and all in between. Really enjoy playing this rubber on my Persson World Champion 89 outer-fiber blade. Counter-attacking is great. Blade and rubber gives you the speed you need to win the point. Very nice rubber.
This was my first forehand rubber and this made my game so much better as a beginner. Although it will not suit for intermediate/pro player because this lacks speed but as a beginner this was a good thing. I used this for 9 months and it was still like the first day so a very good lifespan.(i played 6 hours a week back then) and i can recommend this to any beginner.
Staw away! I found this rubber so inconsistent on my Lin Gaoyuan ALC blade. Started off using on the backhand and it was very slow and inconsistent. When I changed to FH I still hated it. Staw away!
Z3 (2.1mm) thickness on the forehand and backhand side. Matches up and plays very well on OFF & OFF+ blades. Rubber has a great balance between speed, spin, and control. Blocking is outstanding. Ball placement comes easy. Donic has done their homework in creating the BLUESTORM SERIES rubbers (well done). For me Z3 (2.1) is a nice match for the Donic Waldner OFF & Persson OFF+ World Champion 89' blades (IMO). Nice touch and feel, good control, outstanding blocking, great speed when power hitting, and the sound is like a crack of thunder when hitting hard. Definitely NOT a slow rubber and super fun to play with. Rating it a 10 because it is a well balanced rubber and does what it is supposed to do. FYI: The rubber is medium to medium soft.
