This is an all-round rubber that will not disappoint you in any segment of the game. Where the rubber stood out was the flat hits and active block, while I was disappointed with the amount of spin. In terms of speed, it has a great control-to-speed ratio. You can really get a lot of speed out of it very easily, and with good control.

For those who need a good rubber for block and flat hits, a little less sensitive to incoming spin, Rakza 9 is the rubber for them. The rubber is quite difficult to control in the short game and it doesn't create that much spin, but if your game is based on blocks and flat shots, it's definitely worth trying the Rakza 9.

Rakza X does not excel anywhere in particular, but in no segment of the game will it disappoint, that's why it's a top all-round rubber. Rakza X is the best buy for players who need an all-round rubber or players who are not sure which segment of their game the rubber needs to cover the best.

Rakza Z has a slightly harder sponge, 51 degrees. What makes it heavier, cut to 157x150mm weighs 52g. According to what it's like to play with it, I'd say it's closer to ESN tensor rubbers than to Chinese sticky rubbers, but it's that stickiness that gives it extra spin, so it's actually a real hybrid rubber and, in my opinion, one of the best hybrid rubbers on the market. With counter topspin and flicks, it is not necessary to pay so much attention to the angle of the racket. I have noticed that if I misjudge the amount of opponent rotation, with the Rakza Z I can put the ball back on the table pretty easy. When I started playing with Rakza Z I noticed that I attack the opponents serve much more. Also, during the game I decide to counterspin more, because the rubber gives me more security, so I decide to attack more often. See my more detailed analysis in the video review below.

Tenergy 19 is a new rubber from Butterfly that has been added to the already known Tenergy collection, so I will compare it with Tenergy collection. Although these have the same sponge, due to the different geometry of the pips, Tenergy 19 has the feeling to be the softest of all of the rubbers from the Tenergy collection. If, of course, we exclude the FX versions. So with Tenergy 19, the ball gets into the sponge more and because of that it stays on the racket a little longer, so the control is very good. The most famous rubber from the Tenergy collection is the 05. It is much bouncier than the Tenergy 19. So Tenergy 19 is easier to control than Tenergy 05 during the service and short game. Also, because the ball is on the racket longer, it is easier to play a counter topspin.When I started playing with the Tenergy 19 I saw immediately that it was very good in the block, but the more I played with it, the more I used the active block and noticed how much security I actually had in that active block. Practically, if I positioned my feet well, I couldn't miss the block. For flat shots and block, this combination of Tenergy sponge and the new topsheet is really good.See my more detailed analysis in the video review below.

This is after only an hour of playing with the rubber.

Now, after doing another 6 hours of training with it, but still only with the robot, some things have changed a little and I can say that I really like it and will continue to play with it.
I'm not really a fan of hard Chinese tacky rubbers, such as Hurricane 3, and I just expected something similar from Dignics 09c. But they are two very different rubbers. Also, I thought it would take me a lot more time to adjust, but at first there doesn't seem to be a drastic difference from the Dignics 05, which I usually play with, because there was no need for major changes in the angle of the racket on any strokes.
What I didn't mention in the video above, is that it is definitely less sensitive to incoming spin then D05, which gives the player a lot more confidence and it actually makes you attack everything. Counterattacks close to the table are excellent. Before, for some counterattacks I would take a step or two back because I would be more secure in my shot, but now I can do the same counterattacks close to the table, which then makes me more dangerous, and since I have short pips on the backend, that are not for playing off the table, it is even more advantageous to stay at the table.
After the first few serves, it did not seem to be so good for the serves because of its hardness, but now after 2 hours of serve training, I can say that it is great for the serves because the serves are shorter, lower and have more spin.
For now, it's more than promising, we'll see when I try it with the real players, not only the robot.
