Max thickness, 45g. Mainly used on my backhand side.
1. A rubber that's perfect for the backhand.
2. Blocking is super stable!
3. Easier to get speed out of than spin.When you really sink the ball into the sponge, you get that Tenergy-style spin and can hit deep balls too.
Compared to Tenergy 05FX, the spin is a bit less, but that also makes it less sensitive to the opponent's drives and smashes, so blocking was easier.
Tenergy 80 and Rozena are still easier to block with, and I think they're great for a grinding style of table tennis.
On the other hand, when I drive myself, the ball doesn't sink in as much and the power feels a bit weaker.
I think it depends on which one suits you or which one you prefer.
Personally I still like the 05 series better because it has a solid grip on the ball and the ball really sinks in.
Since it's soft, it's easy to bite into the ball on backspin shots too, so speed drives were easy to hit.
On the other hand, pushes and stops tend to float, so you need a delicate touch.
Hope this helps.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

88g, flared handle only.
- The limba top ply grips the ball really well! Gives you a reassuring feel!
- With a 6.0mm blade thickness, there's plenty of power on hard hits!
- Great value for money!
When you hit hard, you get that carbon-like power and distance. Personally I felt a bit of a gap between hitting hard and deep versus just sinking the ball into the rubber sheet, in terms of how far it felt like it should go, but it wasn't as pronounced as with Butterfly's Innerforce Layer ZLC. That's probably because the aramid carbon is softer and easier to handle than ZLC.
I got it on clearance for around 5,000 yen, which is less than half the price of an Innerforce Layer ALC. It's true the grip only comes in flared and felt a little too thin, but I don't care that much about grip shape so it wasn't a problem. Really happy with this purchase! Definitely worth considering.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Soft

2.1 mm, 53 g. Shore C hardness meter reading of 42.3° (Tenergy 05 was 47 g, 44.6°).
1. The ball leaves fast, giving a strong sense of speed! 2. It grips the ball well enough that you don't feel the stated sponge hardness of 51.5°. 3. Despite fine pips on the sheet, the spin performance is high too.
I think the rubber is designed so that the hard sheet provides spin performance, the well-gripping sponge provides ease of use and ball-holding, and the fine pips on the sheet provide speed performance, each compensating for the others. I don't think any other manufacturer had this kind of design concept before. It combines the best of classic German-made rubbers with the best of what makes Tenergy Tenergy, and I was convinced by the tagline that it's "the best of the MX-P and MX-S." Compared to other rubbers, it's especially strong in speed performance - I'd describe it as sitting in a position like the 64, or an 80 leaning toward the 64, making it easy to do speed drives while also being easy to use for counter-drives.
I've also reviewed it on my blog, so please check that out too.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Max thickness, 60g. Hardness on a Shore C gauge came to 49.3° (for reference, Tenergy 05 was 47g at 44.6°, and Dignics 09C was 50g at 50.8°).
1. Monstrous spin and wobble that rivals Hurricane! 2. It's a tacky rubber, yet it bounces like crazy! 3. Extremely difficult to handle — you need to account for the weight!
The top sheet only has a slight tackiness, not a strong tacky feel. It's not that the ball doesn't sink in — I could feel it sinking in when I touched it — but because the sponge is so dense and rubbery, the ball seems to launch back out before you really feel like you've grabbed it. Even though it's supposed to be a tacky tension rubber, the launch is so good it bounces almost like a spin-oriented tension rubber, and you can smash with it just fine too. On top of that, loop drives come out with an insane amount of spin that actually wins you points, which I really liked. It'll definitely take time before you can use it well, but once you can, I think it's a genuinely fun rubber. Hurricane doesn't bounce anywhere near this much, and Dignics 09C doesn't produce this kind of wobble. I've also reviewed it on my blog, so please check that out for reference.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Hard

Listed as Reinforce AC, but I actually hit with it on an OSP Virtuoso AC blade.
Cut to 158x150mm and glued on, it weighs 54g. Hardness meter (Tenergy 05 reference): topsheet side 47.9 (44.6), sponge side 43.6 (43.3)
- Outstanding speed and spin performance!
- Easy to handle - you'd never guess it's a 52.5!
- A heavy, high-spin rubber in the Tenergy 80 mold
Apart from the weight, the feel on contact was Tenergy 80-like, with the ball sinking in and a fast ball trajectory off the blade. But since the spin performance is also high, it draws a solid arc, and the spin amount is outstanding - even a low-level backhand loop drive got the opponent to overshoot. It's easy to sink the ball into, and I think it feels more like a genuine Tenergy than the Dignics does.
Compared to post-Tenergy tension rubbers like R53 or MX-D, this one holds the ball by sinking it in more. Even so, it's easier to hit fast balls with than DNA Platinum XH, and I felt the overall balance was extremely high. Just like with other rubbers, even if you rate its performance conservatively, it's on par with Tenergy, so it's a good option. It's heavy, so if you take countermeasures (a blade with a smaller head, or gluing it further from the grip), you should be able to bring out the rubber's performance to the fullest!
Just something to keep in mind.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little soft
