Butterfly Tenergy 05

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 05T05 is a legendary. It is a golden reference for almost all pingpong lovers. I damaged my first T05 not because it is a bad rubber. It was simply because I peeled off and re-glued it too often. And rough handling of course. Recently I tested my 2nd T05 on the Taiwan PP Moby Hinoki (http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/index.php?cPath=24_173).A perfect combination. Looping, blocking, pushing, spin, high throw. A good control and high speed. Most of the time I prefer a slight tacky (2.0-3.5), medium sponge hardness (6.0-7.0) rubbers. I am a CS holder and not a reverse BH player. I play near table to medium distance. And this T05 make the blade like a magic. This Taiwan PP Moby Kiso Hinoki is much cheaper than the Speed 90 and it feels as good as the Speed 90 with this T05. I shall get some other American Cypress as well as Taiwan Hinoki from this Taiwan PP (http://ww3.ping-pong.tw), as the prices are affordable and I am an all wood blades lover. We shall see how good the other products are with T05. Jun 01, 2019 | |||

Review of DHS Gold Arc 8I test this legendary rubber (max, 50 degrees) with my new Taiwan PP Apollo 8.0mm 3-Ply Kiso Hinoki (with American Hinoki Core) with special CL handle (A combi of CS with Jpen). I am a near table to medium distance player, with a balanced attack and spin. GoldArc 8 is the best of the best. It is the best rubber for my PP Apollo 3-Ply Kiso Hinoki (I have tested many renown rubbers with this blade). If wanna try, can find it at http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/product_info.php?cPath=24_173&products_id=4616May 27, 2019 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Palio Hadou 40+

Review of Palio Hadou 40+This is a very good low-priced rubber. Not as good as T05 for sure, but best choice for the budget-conscious serious players. I would say it is comparable to HK1997 Gold. I prefer slightly tacky rubber rather than no tacky or too tacky.May 20, 2019 | |||||||||||||||||||||||

Palio HK1997 Gold

Review of Palio HK1997 GoldRecently I tried this rubber with Taiwan PP Apollo 3-Ply Kiso Hinoki (http://ww3.ping-pong.tw/product_info.php?cPath=24_173&products_id=4616). I would say it is a fast rubber. After 15 minutes of warming up, I am convinced this is an excellent rubber. The speed in a pingpong play depends on both blade and rubber. A right match will make you a happy champion.May 24, 2019 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
