Review of Butterfly Tenergy 80

This rubber is good for some players and blades but is too fast for stiffer and harder blades like Stiga Carbo 7.6 and can be extremely inconsistent at times. This rubber is good for the block and can be decent for the short game but is slightly better at mid distance looping. Close to the table open ups are more difficult on average with this rubber as it cannot lift heavy chop easily. Tenergy 80 is also sometimes not very spin sensitive so can make for a good chopping rubber. However you are better off buying t64 or t05 than this rubber. the inconsistency of this rubber can be a nightmare.

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 05

Throw angle is super high and hard to play with, not very fast and highly overrated. It is to hard to p[lay short. Consistent but nothing special.

Review of Xiom Omega IV Pro

This is a very fast rubber which can produce heavy spin when needed. The greatest strength of this rubber is that it can produce consistently powerful topsins with a strong forehand stroke, however the forehand stroke is best when combined with a powerful turning motion of the body. This makes a very good forehand rubber and lasts very long so no need to replace it for many months. I have had a sheet for six months and train for tournaments about 10 hours a week and the sheet still plays like new

Review of Xiom Sigma 1 Pro

I am using this in my backhand on a Stiga carbo 7.6 WRB.
First thing is first, people often recommend it as a Tenergy alternative but it isn't. It has a little less spin but more speed and more control than t05. However it is different, I don't call it an alternative I give it the same status as t05. The rubber maybe better than Tenergy for the players who like it and give it time. Don't expect that after 5 minutes you will know how it plays like, get a sheet and at with of for a couple of months and you can feel the difference

It is a blessing for me on the backhand side. I switched from Tenergy and can feel my game improve, I get more spinny and powerful backhands on the table and more loops. It is definitely worth trying and can be better for Tenergy if it suits you.
