Review of Butterfly Glayzer 09CI just got this rubber in the mail today (29/03) and started playing with it. Put the rubber on a Butterfly Innerforce ULC with a rubber thickness of 2.1 mm. My first thoughts:- easy to control while blocking - easy to control when receiving - easy to control incoming spin - higher throw angle than I’m used to Edit (19/04): I don't know how to put it with this rubber. Most of the time it works really well for me, but I can see why people don't like it. I think you'll need to pair this rubber with a faster blade (like the zlc or Tamca series from Buttefly) in order to compromise for the lack of speed. I still think the spin in this rubber is really good. Having played with a variety of rubbers on my forehand, like Rakza X, T05, D05, I can certainly say that this produces by far more spin. Many training partners often let the ball shoot out because they underestimate the spin I put on the ball with this rubber. This rubber is a really calmed down version of the D09C, and I think it shouldn't be used when coming from a faster rubber like T05 and wanting to maintain that speed.

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 64I bought this rubber as a replacement for the Dignics 05 I've used on my backhand. I must say, it changed the game for me a lot. Having tried a lot of backhand rubbers, I've decided to stick with this one. I first tried it in 1.9 mm on a Stiga Cybershape Wood, and I'm now using it in 2.1 mm on a Butterfly innerforce ULC. Where I like this rubber the most is in the blocking and punching area. Since it is less sensitive to spin, you can very easily control incoming spin and counter punch fairly easy on spinny balls. Even my chop blocks are fairly consistent with this rubber. I have tried it on my forehand side, but here it was too fast and has a too low trajectory for me. I like playing with a bit of a slower rubber on my forehand since I always play a very hard and fast stroke and I couldn't really adjust to this rubber. For backhand, this rubber is absolutely great. Since it is fast, you don't have to put in a lot of effort to play the topspin strokes. If you haven't used this rubber yet and are afraid that it is too fast, try it in 1.9 mm. It is a subtle difference in terms of speed, but it is a bit more controllable.May 04, 2023 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
