TENERGY 05 has a unique feeling using a combination of Spring Sponge technology, High Tension rubber and a tacky surface. It is excellent for imparting a great deal of spin on the ball. 05 in the name was adopted from Pimples Code No. 5. Tenergy 05 enables a full range of topspin play at or away from the table. It keeps its explosive power throughout the life of the rubber without the use of speed glue or boosting. Tenergy 05 is very popular among world-class table tennis players. European Champion Timo Boll uses Tenergy 05 on forehand and backhand.
• Please use Free Chack II when you apply Tenergy to a blade. • Tenergy is a highly delicate product. We recommend you protect the rubber surface with rubber protective film after a match or practice. • Tenergy Family Rubbers, realize your more!

So, where to start with this one? I guess I’ll start with the obvious and state that pretty much everything you’ve already read about this rubber is true…it’s phenomenal. However there is no such thing as a free lunch, and what this rubber costs you is control and forgiveness in exchange for the nastiest, spiniest arc I’ve yet to play with. This rubber has a higher, more biting arc that kicks like a donkey when it hits the table. I drew more errors off of this rubber than anything else I’ve played with yet. But here’s the trick for me, when I played up against better competition I needed better control and less speed and catapult because all the incoming pace I was already seeing. Against lower competition, I drew errors. Against higher competition, they drew errors. So where does that leave me? In the right hands of someone more advanced than me, it’s perfect. But for right now and where I’m at, I need something more controllable like Tenergy19 or Vega X when I’m playing matches. I’ll keep this on a training blade in hopes of one day becoming worthy.

That was long journey. I'm tired, but happy finally :) I think I've tested everything: Chinese, hybrid, tensors. I've heard many times: 'Oh this is like Tenergy but something, this is like Dignics. This is better, this is blablabla. No ! Just trust me there is no alternative for Butterfly top series rubbers. If you are amateur even good semi pro put 2x tenergy on your blade (Dignics for pros). Whatever your blades is it will fit. Best spin, best speed, best F E E L I N G. Stop spending your money for testing whole this s**t from ESN. The are spend almost 20 years for create something similar and they did nothing close:D.

I have been playing table tennis for 54 years and I have been using 10G rubbers since they came out, especially the Tenergy 05. I have been playing with it so much that by now it's like an old friend that is always reliable. Predictable and easy to manage. There's no aspect of the game that this rubber does not excel it. But it's performance all depends on the table, tennis players, skill and training. Use it correctly and you will be very happy. But if your skills are not up to the task, you will start blaming this rubber for being too fast. Having the throw angle too high being spin sensitive. Hard to play soft touch shots. It all depends on your skill level and experience. With the correct skills and experience. You can do anything with this rubber. The only problem is its price because this is an old rubber and by now other manufacturers have rubbers that are almost as good at a lower price point.

Speed is really good for some people it may feel that there is to much bounce but i can handle it and spin is nice but best thing about this rubber is the control and easy power(dont have to do very powerful stroke everytime). I would like if they did something between tenergy 05 and tenergy 05 hard not glazer becouse the sponge is different.
