Review of Butterfly Pan Asia

after 7 years of using gki kung fuu which had lots of spin and decent control but slow speed ,i decided to go for something which had less spin but more control and speed.and i must say this rubber is really good for beginners whos game is not spin based rather they depend on fast paced shots . since the spin of this rubber is less this is a plus point since it is not sensitive to incoming spin and u can flick the heavy spin serves easily as well as u can counter loop the topspin easily ..SO overall i just want to say that if u r a beginner player looking for control then this is very good rubber .if u love spin then this rubber is not for you since u really have to struggle to spin the ball

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 05 FX

Awesome rubber i can literally do anything with this rubber except for flat hitting(which with proper training should not be a problem).Ball just flies off the bat so no need to exert force the spring sponge will do it for you..you just have to give it proper parabolic trajectory and boom the ball goes very fast and bouncy.Your opponents will be caught off gaurd gauranteed .This rubber i can suggest mainly for backhand since its very unforgiving

Review of Butterfly Tenergy 80 FX

My Favourite backhand rubber ....easiest to control amongst all backhand tenergy rubbers i have tested ..t05 fx feels very fast and bouncy and mushy ..80fx feels perfect .not too fast nor too buncy and not at all mushy if u play with your thumb ..easy to flick returns ..easy to lift backspin ..easy to punch or chop ,push...blocking is little tough near the table but 1 2 steps away from the table it's easy to block even heavy topspin.

Review of DHS NEO Hurricane 3 Provincial (Orange Sponge)

Using 39 degree on my Tibhar samsanov force pro black edition ..( will work even better on carbon blades) ..Perfect forehand rubber ....medium speed hence I can hit my forehand with full swing knowing it won't miss the table ..spin is great ( top spin and side spin is vicious )..control is superb .. provincial rubber is lighter than commercial ..the bat doesn't feel as heavy as my commercial version setup ..chops are low ..push are easy to control ..blocking is easy just let me ball come to you and it gets easily blocked ...needs lot of forearm and leg strength to hit topspin but u get reward for it .Also flat Hits and flip kills are really good if u practice them ..service is done properly can give really good spin and u can keep them low
initially for 12 to 15 hours ,rubber is hard and tacky and tough to play ..you will lose many games ..after 12 to 15 hours rubber becomes soft and tackyness becomes less and then it's true potential is released and it becomes unstoppable ..No need to apply any booster or anything...Try it once ...Provincial >>commercial ..Its 50 percent more expensive than commercial but totally worth it if u have patience ,strong forearms and legs and knees ..

Review of DHS PF4 40+

Black version medium thick version ..
Excellent rubber if u r on budget .Very similar to hurricane 3 neo commercial

Spin and speed is little less than hurricane 3 neo

Control is definitely better

Smash and block are similar to hurricane 3 neo..

It's basically a tamed version of hurricane 3 neo at half the price

Review of JOOLA MAXXX-P

Best rubber overall I have ever used .. ( for me ie my style ) I have used t05fx mxp xiom omega 5 Asia and hurricane 3 neo ..But this one is my favourite .. it has good feel but no where close to that feel as t05fx obviously due to the more sponge hardness .It has good spin no where close to mx P .It has the best control I feel amongst them ..And speed wise it's good similar to all . But the best point I think is it's consistency ball always behave the same and if paired with perfect blade like I use joola Aruna off- u can create a monster with this combination ...My game has improved only within a month playing 2 times a week .. so go for this rubber It's a beast ..

Review of Palio Hadou Biotech

I purchased Palio legend 2 custom made racket and if I m not mistaken this is the black side rubber.. very very nice rubber.. Very fast monster spin .. Awesome control if technique is good .. Smashes and push are tough because of the fast speed obviously but with proper technique that should not be a problem.. Make sure u put little water and rubber the rubber with your palm after each session as it will maintain the tackyness of the rubber.

Review of Stiga Calibra LT Plus

I have used tenergy 05FX,Mx p ,ms S, hurricane rubbers .But overall this is my personal favourite .it's similar to tenergy in feeling ..nice catapult ..balls sinks into the rubber giving very nice control ..low throw so it's difficult for opponent to counter the top spin ..faster than tenergy for sure .and consistent ..with tenergy balls used to drop a lot while hitting top spin ..but with calibra it hardly drops .. it has given my game a new meaning .. try to out for your self ..

Review of Tibhar Evolution MX-P

I dont think many will believe but it's better than tenergy 05 FX (for Forehand not backhand) I can't beleive its price almost half still ..slightly more spin .more control no need to to close the racket too much as with T05FX ..speed is identical ..power is clearly better in mxp because of the Hardness ..only concern is the catapult effect and the feel ..T05fx has monterous catapult whereas mxp is ok in that department ..and how much will these mentioned characteristics last time will tell ...but I am really in love with this rubber.This will probably be my go to Forehand rubber for few years to come no doubt ..
