Hi Alois and Jeff,
I want to ask which rubber is better between the tenergy 05 or the tenergy 64.
I own a tenergy 05 and i love it but i am not too sure about the tenergy 64.
i hope you do a video about this but if you cant for any sort of reason like if the rubber is too expensive then you cannot do a video.
thanks for reading my question,
Ashley Koh Jia Jhin
Hi Ashley,
Most of the top players use the 05. It is a bit faster than the 64. It just depends on which one suits your game better.
alois, i own both a 64 and a 05. however, i have a 05fx and it seems to me that the 05fx is a superior rubber. thanks, steve
Alois im sorry but your wrong, actually the Tenergy 64 is faster that the Tenergy 05, but the Tenergy 05 is a little bit more spinny.
it depends which blade u r using it on. hard or soft blades, since t05 is hard rubber it is faster on a soft blade. and opposite
I own the Joo See Hyuk ST Blade and I just got Feint Long III Japanese OX, i was wondering which Tenergy i should use since I play a modern Defense style and am looking for a very good Counter attacking rubber on my forehand
Darren,
I think you must use a long pips rubber in your backhand and something like the Takifire class c soft in your forehand...
From Butterfly's marketing it seems Tenergy 05 is for close to the table attacking and Tenergy 64 is for mid-distance attacking. As a modern defensive player, you would be attacking more from mid distance so I'd go with Tenergy 64 out of the two. I might be wrong but I recall reading that Joo Se Hyuk uses Tenergy 64 on his FH? The Tenergy 05 FX has a softer sponge (and therefore better control, less speed - some reviews suggest it is easier to loop against backspin with it). I used to use Tenergy 05 on my FH and Tenergy 05 FX on the BH and it was an excellent combination.
