Review Butterfly Dignics 09c - The only one for all?

[@kens9234]

I am 42 years old and got back to playing table tennis again after 20 years because of Timo Boll. Now my daughter trains to be like you someday.

[@mchan2639]

One of the most humble and honest player/review given for any sport despite being a contracted butterfly player.

[@basketmaster2777]

I'm amazed! I have never seen such a good review. It covers every aspect of the game and it's high quality video. Thanks Timo. I'm looking forward to the new reviews that are coming up.

Timo Boll designed rubber must be excellent 👍

[@fs4172]

... eine trockene, sachliche Bewertung, das Video dazu ist ausführlich und hilfreich. Der Belag ist richtig gut und für 95 % aller Spieler - in Verbindung mit entsprechenden Hölzern - schnell genug. Außerdem hat ja auch niemand behauptet, dass sich dieser Belag nur am Tempo orientiert. Klasse Werbung für den 09c ... 👍👍👍

[@teckhonghong3628]

it started when the chinese rubber manufacturer started encroaching into the spring sponge domain. Now the European / Japanese manufacturer are fighting back by releasing tacky rubber with spring sponge characteristic ( what they called the hybrid rubber ). It is an exiting time to be in this sport!

[@dbeff]

I'm using it and it's excellent even for a beginner like me. Very safe and durable. Thank you Timo!

Although I'm not going to try Dignics 09c anytime soon, the comparisons and characteristics are quite useful for any other rubbers, thanks Timo!!

[@urbanknight2808]

Excellent review on D09c. Thanks, Timo.

[@flosnd]

From the moment you presented the 09C, I started using it just like you, on the forehand and backhand. I find it perfect for the backhand by the way. The durability is not to bad, but certainly not as good as the Dignics 05. I find the 09C a little too fast on short balls for my TB ALC, like you said the ball pops up, but on an all wood blade it works great!

[@bryanmindru8858]

You can definitely be proud of it our good sir. It is the best rubber out there for the new game. Got my first pair May 2020 and it felt like the best of revelations. Congratulations.

[@VictorMoraga]

Thank you Timo for sharing your feedback with us. I 'll be testing Dignics 09c with my Stiga Dynasty Carbon. We will see 🙂 🏓, because I'm a lefty penholder. Great video as always.

[@กอบกฤชเรืองสุริยกิจ]

All might need this 🌟

[@anyfin9277]

From my standpoint, what Timo Boll mentioned is correct. Something I would like to add on is your basic techniques have to be fluid to control this rubber since you are preparing for some rallies in a Dignics 09c game. Meanwhile it would be frustrating if you play against weird styles like penhold short pips with this rubber to combat the fast and no spin ball. Sorry to say boosted Hurricane 3 is still much more dominant than Dignics 09c as the shot quality, serve and recieve are up the roof which D09c that focus on different styles cannot act as an alternative. However, it is always a good rubber to switch from tensor rubbers to aquire more control.

[@johnasfloren1998]

Super Video wie immer mach weiter so Timo Boll.

[@blackie754]

Does sound like a great rubber 😊 Thanks for the review!

[@ttjesus4959]

( I will be referring to the national blue sponge version of H3). D09c has a much higher throw than H3. H3 is much more tacky. D09c is faster while using less power. They're about equal when using maximum power. You can feel the catapult from D09c. H3 has ZERO catapult, which is what allows for counter forehands with 100% power from mid distance. At the top end and everywhere except for the mid-power shots, H3 will outspin D09c. Hitting H3 flat is not recommended. You can still hit D09c flat.

[@niksyde7859]

Super Video Timo. Vielen Dank dafür :) Ich finde es immer spannend wie die Profis Dinge bewerten. Allerdings hat nicht nur der 09c, sondern die ganze Reihe, einen großen Nachteil. Den Preis! 80€ für einen Belag ist einfach utopisch und absolut unverhältnismäßig. Als Vertragsspieler ist das einfach, aber wir "normalos" profitieren davon nicht. Leider.

[@timoboll8381]

Stimmt. Wir Profis haben leicht reden, aber der Dignics 09c ist wirklich etwas besonderes

[@niksyde7859]

@@timoboll8381 Erstmal Danke für die Antwort :) Das mag sein, dass der 09c etwas besonderes ist und das glaube ich Dir auch. Ich habe den Dignics 05 testen dürfen und der war schon gut. Eine Weiterentwicklung zum T05, keine Frage. Ich tue mich nur schwer diesen Belag als empfehlenswert zu bezeichnen. 60€ für die Tenergys ist schon die absolute Obergrenze und dann 80€ für 1 Dignics. Nein danke. Egal wie gut der Belag ist, er ist zu teuer. Tenergys billiger machen (45€-50€) und den Dignics bei 60€ ansetzen. Ist auch viel Geld, aber wäre mal ein Schritt in die richtige Richtung. Vielleicht kannst Du, mit deinem Einfluss und wenn du dahingehend Verständnis hast, ja irgendwie was erreichen. Uns würde es jedenfalls sehr freuen :) P. S.: Sorry für die lange Nachricht 🙈

Yasaka Rakza Z is quite similar to Dignics 09c having 50% less price. As compared with Hurricane, may please consider the similar hybrid rubbers like RAKZA Z and RAKZA Z extra hard as well.

[@timoboll8381]

I haven't heard of the Rakza rubber, so I can't imagine it's as good as Dignics 09c. But if it's 50% off and you're happy with it, why not

[@matejweiss896]

Very nice and honest review. If you compare it with butterfly 05, whats the difference in speed, arc, control, spin, hardness, how much ball stays on the rubber?

[@apflor323]

I tried this rubber and think it's one of the best I have ever used. Timo is right that it's not fast, but the control and spin make up for that. I think it's speed actually comes after it bounces, because the ball comes at decent pace but kicks off the table . Most of the players I play against complain about how the ball kicks and the dip once it hits the table.

[@mypekicks]

Hi Timo! Huge fan of yours over 20 years! Love the review but more importantly I love your shirt! Can I get one of your tournament jerseys so I can frame it

[@m.alexandrecastro9323]

Hi Timo and Team Timo ! Thanks for your technical overview. As clinical as you are I would not expect anything better for your game, it does fit you like a glove. It does look like a more "forgiving" rubber due of it's dwell time. But I have a question, what about WEIGHT ? I love TGY 05 but NOT the weight (my preference). Since this rubber seems more elastic, is it a little lighter ?! PS Good luck with your health (mainly)... cuz technically pffft.... you are as close to a robot as a human can be ! (in a good way of course)

[@anthonytran8758]

I've been playing with the 09c for little while now and feel as though the top sheet loses the grip quite quickly compared to the tenergy or other dignics rubbers. Not sure if anyone else has the same issues but find myself needing to replace it more frequently than my Dignics 05 that I use on my backhand side.

[@dbeff]

I agree, the rubber in general last a long time but as the sponge is hard and it's very dependent on the grip any loss seems to make a big difference.

[@zoltanzoltan303]

Talk to the butterfly to make more rubbers like this , to have from what to choise. For example for me would need with extreme low trajectory.

[@markusmaier2325]

Hey Timo one short question, because I think no one asked yet: How do you clean your rubbers and especially the Dignics 09C with its sticky surface? With normal rubber cleaner sticky rubbers shouldn’t be cleaned not to destroy the surface.

[@HumbleBearcat]

Great review! No doubt that this rubber is great for topspin and flicks. What about the short push, is it easy to execute? Is it easy to return no spin serves?

[@simpilota3209]

Hi Timo dabke dass du uns Hilfe gibst wie wir spielen sollen. Legende👍👍👍🏓

[@dibakarpodder135]

I am learning table tennis at 37. After trying many rubbers, i settled with Dignics 09c as backhand and forehand. Only problem i face is loopingvagainst topspin. Otherwise its a excellent rubber. Definitely faster than hurricane…

Legends never die

[@saatviksannuthi4326]

boosting can be a headache sometimes. I used to use the dhs sun yingsha blade and boost dhs hurricane 3 neo 40 degrees provincial version with 3 layers of booster. putting a bit extra or a bit less affects the characteristics greatly and after 2 months you would need to buy another rubber or reboost because it doesnt last long. and u need different amount of booster depending on the blade.

[@ramadanahmed8925]

Tru the only thing I struggle with this rubber is the short serve receives but apart of this the rubber is amazing

I play the Timo Boll ALC blade and really love it. And investing this amount of money into a blade that you can virtually play "forever" seemed reasonable to me. But four Dignics a year (if you use them on forehand and backhand) is simply out of my budget. Unfortunately, because I am sure the rubber is top notch... Nevertheless a very interesting video! Thanks a lot.

Anyway I hope you will have the ability one day to switch to 09c. ALC is a great choice by the way

Sehr informatives video, wie immer. Ich weiss das es wahrscheinlich nicht möglich ist aber es wäre toll wenn Du mal einige der Billig-Kopien von den Hölzern und Belägen von Butterfly, DHS usw testen könntest. Es gibt einige Fabrikate die das Butterfly Timo Boll ALC imitieren ( Yinhe V14 Pro, Sanwei F3, Gambler AC Hero) und bei Belägen gibt es auch viele Alternativen zu den "tacky' Chinese rubbers" die nur kleines Geld kosten. Einige von denen mit gutem Schwamm spielen sich sehr gut ohne Booster, da wäre es interessant die Meinung eines Profis zu hören, für all die Anfänger wie mich die es einfach für Unverhältnismäßig halten mit einem 350 Euro Schläger an die Platte zu treten egal was der Kontostand ermöglicht. Als "beginner/ intermediate" braucht man vielleicht einfach nicht so ein Super-Ding. Ich selbst habe gerade meinen ersten Schläger, einen 100 Euro Markenschlaeger mit ESN Belägen, gegen so ein "Budget Fabrikat" eingetauscht und finde es sowohl von der Qualität als auch vom "Vibe" einfach wesentlich besser passend, das liegt vielleicht auch daran das meine Generation ( Ich bin 56) als Kinder von unseren Eltern immer zu hören bekommen haben das " wenn der Bauer nicht schwimmen kann liegt es an der Badehose", haha.

Der Belag ist wirklich nicht für jedermann, gerade in Deutschland, wo fast jeder "Katapult Monster" spielt, fehlt den meisten der Speed...😂👍 Aber mich als Spinspieler spricht der Belag an. Für ist mich ist Tunen ebenfalls ein No-Go und die China Beläge verlieren ihr "Factory-Tuning" nach zwei Wochen! Nach einem Jahr Corona hab ich den Belag wieder ausgepackt und er fühlte sich noch gut an... Für die Schnitt-Abwehr finde ich den Belag eigentlich auch ganz gut... Agressiv Schupfen geht auch wunderbar. Der Ball hat beim Topspin und Schupf eine schöne Länge! Kurzhalten geht wunderbar nur manchmal springt der Ball sehr hoch ab... Bei der Eröffnung oder Flip auf Schnitt wird's jedoch schwieriger im Vergleich zum T05, da fehlt einem der Katapult. Im spinlosen Konterspiel ist er halt wirklich nicht gut und leider wird auch selten erwähnt wie schwer diese Beläge sind! Das kann bei geringem Trainingsaufwand schnell zu Schmerzen im Handgelenk führen und an Turniertagen könnte einem Amateur doch irgendwann die Puste ausgehen...
