Yeah, it's your voice again, thank you!!!

[@diegox.longpips]

I love this kind of content that shows alternatives for rubbers and blades

[@yesfinallygot1]

I'm so happy to hear your voice again coach :) and very informative video Thank You

[@SteveSoper1979]

0:36 Because that can. And people sill still buy it hoping it'll transform them into the next Timo Boll. Plain & simple. I've played with Hurricane 3 commercial for some time now. It's around $30 a sheet. One day at club I traded rackets with a cadet who hit with Tenergy 05 at the time. This Cadet was top 25 in the USA and rated around 2100 USATT so a good player. I was struck how he still hit with just a much spin & power with my racket and I still hit about the same speed & power with this with Tenergy 05. I'm not trying to say rubbers don't matter. Clearly they do. I just think the difference between them is overblown. You either have great technique or you don't. That plays a much bigger factor.

[@adamszabo2139]

I use Nittaku Fastarc G-1, it has a hard feeling (rubber topsheet is also firm), but feels very precise to control. I tried Tibhar MX-S, and I found it to be more challenging to control (must be conscious with footwork, also more physical effort is required to hit), but it is more powerful regarding top spin & speed combined.

Right now I’m currently using MXS on forehand and MXP 50 on backhand. Paired with an inner force zlc, this rubber pairing I have found to be a good alternative. G1 as well is an excellent choice, I’ve found this actually to be quite gripper but not as durable.

[@peterkajan6645]

Hi, how hard is it to control your backhand? The mxp 50 is very hard so I'd like to know how it is. I prefer a softer rubber for my backhand

[@sgmlokior9507]

The Xiom Vega X should be presented as an alternative, aswell. It's sponge is similar to Vega Pro but has a new topsheet to generate more spin. I play the Vega X for about a year already and its really near to the T05. Its price is about 30-35 USD so its very cheap compared to T05... Everyone should give it a try, in my opinion🏓🏓

[@davidsomo1651]

En España , en Vsport Vega X cuesta 45 €, lo mismo que MXP. Así que la diferencia es de 15 € más con respecto a los 60 € de Tenergy 05. 35 dólares americanos son 32 €. A ese precio si la compraría, para ahorrar 15€, me compraría Tenergy 05, que desgastada juega igual que las otras gomas del mercado.

I have tried to find an alternative for ternegy 05 with no success. I have tried some of the rubbers mentioned however I always go back to ternegy 05.

[@john.s1962]

In Europe the t05 is mostly used on forehand, not backhand. There's nothing like the t05, the donic rubbers just don't cut it, they lack feeling. Japanese rubbers don't have the spring feeling and other German rubbers feel completely different and unique. The t05 is trully one of a kind, there's no real substitute, only alternatives with differences, nothing gives you the spring sponge feeling of the t05. Plus about durability, t05 is very durable and can last up to 1.5 to 2 years, but reglueing ruins European and Japanese soft rubbers, it's recommend to reglue them only once in their lifetime to freshen them up, they are sensitive but the sponges shouldn't crack, they don't require much glue or force to remove, they need gentle handling.

[@stiga05fx]

[@john.s1962]

@@stiga05fx that's good, a normal rubber wouldn't have lasted as long

[@aldopalacios3357]

2 years! I don't think T05 can last so much. I play 4 days a week. After 4 months the rubber feels not the same. Loses its grip and feels a bit dead. I'm using now Andro Rasanter R48 in forehand, don't really like it, and Tenergy 19 in backhand. T19 lasts longer than T05 and is a very nice rubber. But they are too expensive. 90 US$ un Peru. So I'll try another options. I liked MX-S very much in backhand, it's a bit heavy. In forehand I liked T05, but as I say, it's an expensive rubber and doesn't last. Victas V22 on forehand and Joola Dynarys ACC will be my next.

[@john.s1962]

@@aldopalacios3357 I play 3-4 times from 2 to 3 hours, t05 lasts me a loooooong time. It does need regluing after some time though, so maybe that's what's wrong with it...

[@418jp]

Hello, I played with almost all these rubbers, I think : Donic bluefire M2 => a very good substitute of T05, it's more than enough for the majority of players, less grip and dynamism than T05 but less spin sensitive so... Yasaka Rakza 9 => a love this rubber but it's more a substitute of T64 than T05. Medium low throw angle, dynamic, big mecanical grip Tibhar MX-P => the same, more a substitute of T64 than T05. Medium throw angle, very dynamic Nittaku G1 => it's a substitute a T05, less dynamsim but more control and harder feel. Xiom Vega pro => never played with Other options : Yasaka Rakza X => same as G1 but with lower throw angle, more a T80 subsitute. Yasaka Rakza 7 => "same" as T05 with lower throw angle Tibhar MX-S => same as G1 Nittaku P1 => same feeling as T05 but lower throw angle.

[@MCKCrew4u]

What do u think about joola carbin x pro? It has micron 48 rubbers 2 mm

[@peterkajan6645]

I use the yasaka Rakza 7 and it just can't grip onto the ball. Very low amount of spin. More of a blocking, smashing rubber.

[@lavasurfer22]

I have used the Vega pro as well as all the other rubbers mentioned. G1 suits my particular game style best, but the Vega Pro is (to this date) the best performing rubber below $40 per sheet. The MX-S is very similar to the G1 playstyle (relitively same angle, dwell time, and control) but has a different feel and has more power. The MX-S also has the about the same max spin but it's access to spin is a little less. The MX-S is better for mid range play where as the G1 is better for close gameplay between the two. Both are quite suitable for either backhand or forehand but the G1 makes a better backhand than the MX-S and the MX-S a better Forehand. Lastly, the G1 will last about 2.5 times longer than the MX-S. This is in part due to the G1 not being a tensor rubber.

[@RambO5018]

[@canicetang8837]

Honestly, the ENTIRE ORIGINAL "Tenergy" series by Butterfly are completely outdated by the new ITTF ABS based plastic ball rather than the softer celluloid ones. Therefore, a combination of harder rubbers with more compacted density in the sponge would be the perfect way to go.

One secret, some professional players tested the three different editions of Hurricane 3 on the same blades, including normal version, provincial version and national version, then failed to distinguish which one is the best. Considering that only national and provincial versions are equipped with blue sponge, so the best alternative will be the provincial version Hurricane 3.

[@lizetbonaldybetanco5783]

I think that no player would use "alternatives" after having used a Butterfly, now if a player is starting this would be a very good option, but I think that once the butterfly is used there is no going back, if the player wants to keep his level and continue advancing is forced to continue using the same rubbers

[@groovecontrol243]

Hello Lizet, I disagree. I've used Tenergy 05 and wasn't impressed. £55 a sheet is extortionate. I've used much better rubbers in the past. I won't be going back to Tenergy 05. Currently using Tibhar EVOLUTION MX-P. For me a GAME CHANGER!! And it's cheaper!!

[@davidsomo1651]

Totalmente de acuerdo. Para 15 € de diferencia Tenergy es superior a todas las gomas Europeas y Japonesas.

[@trieuvansy6835]

R7 is the best in its price, great

[@BarbellBinks]

why do you recommend tenergy 05 as a backhand rubber rather than forehand? I tend to rely on my forehand drive quite a bit for offense, and I'm used to hitting quite flat, so I feel as though tenergy 05 would synergize well with my playstyle for forehand. I rely on my backhand mostly for catching "oddballs" and use an unconventional backhand loop technique to keep these tough receives on the table

[@infinitydk69]

if you want it for hard hits and flat balls then use dignics 64(best dignics in my oppinion)

[@peterkajan6645]

Tenergy 05 isn't very suitable for flat hits I think. It has very high throw angle so the balls will just fly away on a flat hit :D if you want to hit flat, get something like rakza 9 or some other rubber with low throw angle like tenergy 64

[@stiga05fx]

​​@@peterkajan6645 what about 05 fx and 1.9 or 2.1

[@peterkajan6645]

@@stiga05fx 05fx has less throw angle than T05 but it's still high. I use t05fx 1.9 on my backhand for control. Since you can't have a big swing with your backhand, higher throw angle rubbers are better for more shot safety. Also, T05 and it's derivates have a very grippy topsheet. If someone is doing higher spinny shots (like lobbing with backspin, sidespin or topspin), you'll have a harder time smashing the balls, because the rubber reacts on spin very much.

[@peterkajan6645]

Also I have to mention, that I use t05 2.1 on fh, so I know how it is. But I have a loop playstyle so I use the spin very much. The original commenter said they flat hit a lot, so I recommend a less spinny rubber on the forehand.

Oh I see, but How do you think about Victas V15 Extra rubber?

[@418jp]

Hello, I played with V15 Extra max on a TSP Swat power for 2 years. It's a very specific rubber, it is very spin insensitive. So it is very good on service return, block and counter top spin but weak on serve and slow spinny top spin. The first top spin lacks of rotation but after, mid distance counter top spin is a peace of cake. So, it's definitively not a T05 substitute, but it's a unique weapon for a counter initiative player.

table tennis is cheaper than 90% of sports. You don't need to spend lots of money on coaching just turn up to practice at local clubs and play for local teams. Table tennis is only expensive if you want to reach a very high level, say to become top 20 in your country because you will have to spend so much in fuel to travel. The one aspect of table tennis that can suck if the level you can reach is heavily limited by the standard of players in your local area.
