External Review for Butterfly Tenergy 05 on May 1, 2022

So, I have been playing this game for about 6 years now, and I didnt tired too many rubbers, but out of all I have tried, this one seems to fit my style the best. It has the speed when I need to finish the point, but it isnt crazy fast on my blade (its an all+ gewo power all round blade, quite stiff and hard for an all+). As a looper, and a person that is very sensitive to every change in everything, I can say that the spin and the dwell time on this setup are just right, when using the right technique. You can brush, you can hit. You are in control, but if you brush too thin, the ball isnt gonna grip, since the sponge is a little bit too hard for that thin of a brush. The throw angle is high for sure. If you dont know what you are doing, especially on the backhand, the balls will fly out of the table one by one. The short game is a little difficult, since the catapult effect can engage when not expected, but its not impossible to master the serve and recive game. Blocks are quite difficult, especially if you are dealing with spinny topspins, since the rubber is quite spin sensitive, and the high throw angle isnt helping either, but again, its not impossible to do, just a little bit harder because of the speed that the rubber provides, and the explosive effect of the ball. When serving, the rubber can produce variety of gears, so its another added bonus. Basically, the only downsides to this rubber are its price, and sometimes the lack of control. So, if you are a looper, and have some spare money, or good source for used rubbers in good shape, I strongly recommend. If not, there are plenty of other, good rubbers for looping for half the price.
