Pros
  • Loads of control
Cons
  • Speed
I have recently borrowed this blade from a friend as we wanted to swap so they could try my Boll ALC. I have used the Maze t Tec for 7 months now as I thought it would really help my game as it will help me with my shots. My results in tournaments have improved so I think this slower blade has helped me with my accuracy and ball placement. Chop Blocks are deadly with this blade!

  • Comfortable

  • Thin, not thick
This blade is one of the best i've used. I have used a Timo Boll Spirit for a long time, however since my recent purchase of the Timo Boll ALC I wouldn't change it back. It fits very well with my Calibra Tour and Joola Rhythm. It is very fast on the backhand side, even though I have a Joola rubber on my backhand which is 3 months old, it still feels brand new with this blade. The blade makes the rubber react very well, the sound of the rubbers are very loud with a clean feel which gives me great confidence when playing.

Pros
  • Strong glue
I use this glue to stick my rubbers to my blade. It sticks the rubbers to the blade very well and I have not found a problem. I have also been told it sticks to varnished blades well to.
Pros
  • Great bounce
  • High quality
  • Looks great
Cons
  • Price
This is a great table, it has excellent bounce and is of the highest quality I've ever seen in a table. It also looks great and is used in many major competitions and leagues around the world.

One thing I did notice was how well it folds away. It folds up very well and can be kept in a small area when not in use.

Pros
  • Good for counter
  • Similar bounce
Cons
  • Less spin
  • Less speed
  • Durability!
I used this ball during a tournament and 3 broke. This upset my game as you keep thinking is the ball broke or is it going to crack whilst hitting the ball because their not durable. One thing I did like when they were okay was rallying. They seemed to have a very consistent bounce and I felt the rallies were longer which is good for spectators. However just the consistency of the ball needs to be improved.

Pros
  • Confortable
  • Good grip

I have used these trainers for a year now and they still are in good condition. The grip has remained consistent throughout. I like that they are light so I can move around easy.

Pros
  • High spin
  • Great control
  • Nice for counter
I loved the Tenergy 64 on my backhand because it helped my style of play. From a backspin ball it produced enough spin to make it hard for the opponent to counter which then led to me being in control of the table. This rubber has more spin than the Tenergy 05 as it is a little bit softer which gives more dwell time an control. When countering it gives you great feeling when countering close to the table which helps me get my forehand in play.

The Tenergy series in general allows you to feel confident with all your shots. I would highly recommend this rubber for anyone who has a good controlled, steady backhand which allows them to get their strong forehand in.

Pros
  • Good grip on bal
  • Great feeling
  • Softish
Cons
  • Durability!
The andro power grip is not as hard as Tenergy which gives you good feeling when blocking and also topspinning from a backspin ball. I wouldn't recommend this rubber for elite players who play consistently everyday because it does not last long enough. However if your local league player you will get great feedback from this rubber and will help your game due to it's great control.

Pros
  • Great feeling
  • Nice noise
  • Good for spin
I use Boost TC on the backhand side and find it excellent for spinning balls against backspin. It gives me the great control I need to place the ball down the line or playing cross court. The softness of the rubber allows me to take the ball early from a heavy top spin ball countering with great control. I love the noise of the rubber, it makes me realise when I contact the ball in the sweetspot. I haven't rated this rubber as 5 star because it does not give me the same amount of power of the table as a Tenergy would. This rubber is more suited for close to the table around the net stuff.

Pros
  • High durability
  • Fast
  • Great control
This blade has great feeling on the hand when playing my shots. It also gives me the speed that I need to use whilst playing close and away from the table. The blade also has great feeling for blocking shots aswell as strong attacks.

The weight is very good because it is not to heavy and is comfortable enough to play and train for a few hours with no problem. Currently i am using Stiga Boost TC and Donic Acuda rubbers which work well with this blade.

I don't actually see any cons to this blade on a performance scale however price can be quite but you are paying for what you get... good premium product.

Pros
  • Good feeling
  • Hard rubber
  • Very Quick
Cons
  • Durability
This is the best rubber to use if you are an outright topspin player on both wings. It also has good feeling for touch play and also when flicking from a short ball.

I also find that this rubber is great for a half long ball, the grip and topspin the rubber produces could easily add 4 extra points to your game.

When your back from the table the speed and control of the rubber is fantastic, gives you great speed when playing a loop to loop rally, also whilst giving you great control in changing angle.

I have put durability low because i use rubbers everyday and you soon realise after a month or two that the rubber has lost its speed and lots its spark.

This is overall a outstanding if you can afford it.
