Review of Butterfly Tenergy 19It's an easier to use and more forgiving Tenergy 05. It has a slightly lower top speed, but it's still quite fast and it's easy to produce a good quality shot with.

Review of Butterfly Dignics 80Feels a little softer than the listed 40 degrees due to the very supple top sheet. I think this is the "do everything" Dignics option. Loops, blocks and drives very well. Lots and lots of power and spin when you hit hard. Not overly fast on soft touches due to the hard sponge.

Review of Tibhar 5QI'm a developing player. This rubber has a lot of spin and safety. It has decent speed but not so much that the ball flies off. It's easy to put the ball on the table with this rubber. I think it's listed it as a medium-hard rubber but I'd say it's actually medium. I would recommend this as a backhand rubber do the good blocking control, higher than average arc and spininess. If you find the harder Tibhar evolution rubbers and butterfly tenergies too fast, this is a great alternative.

Review of Tibhar Hybrid MKI think this will be a new best seller for Tibhar. I'm using this in max on an inner carbon blade on the backhand side. The topsheet is very soft and grippy. The sponge is definitely on the softer side (maybe softer than the stated hardness), and it is very easy to compress and engage when hitting the ball. The thing that really stands out about this rubber is it's ease of use and lack of spin sensitivity. This lack of spin sensitivity makes it great for pushes, drop shots, blocks and advanced shots like the fanning backhand chop block (you can tell that Kenta helped design this rubber). The max speed and spin of this rubber are very decent but of course less than other high end rubbers that utilize harder sponges. There is a harder version of this available for those that need more power, but I'd say this version is sufficient for most players. Equipment doesn't make you a better player but the ease of use and the lack of spin sensitivity has allowed me to change my shot selection and overall tactics and increase the number of backhand tools/shots available to me. Really cool rubber and I'll continue to use it.

Review of Xiom Vega ProA great forehand rubber. I would recommend this to any developing attacking player. All of the fun of rubbers like tenergy and the evolution series but way more forgiving. Great price and performance.

Review of Yasaka Rakza Z Extra HardI'm using this on forehand on Viscaria. Very similar to Dignics 09c but tackier. I think the durability in regards to topsheet tackiness is significantly better than D09c. This rubber is really heavy. The increased weight has also made my backhand flicks and and drives have more oomph. Great alternative to D09c at a much better price.
