Not one of the options, but my favorites are the Babolat Loony Damps.

I like O damps, so to answer your question, I would recommend using one of those Custom O Damps without the solid core. I'm very conscious of adding any weight to my racquet. My racquet is about 12.6 oz strung, and if I add any more accessories to it, I notice the difference in maneuverability. A dampener that weighs only 1.5 grams (like the Sampras O Dampener I use now), will have less effect than one that weighs over 3 grams.

i don't usually use a small damper cuz they tend to fly off when i hit it. If would prefer either the djokovic or the custom 0 damp with the core

I have used the Custom O damp for nearly 5 years now. I've tried other ones but the CO is the best.

imo, dampeners are all the same. since you use a head racquet, go with the Djokovic dampener.

TW dampeners, they never come off and don't get loose.
