I recently came back into the game after about 6 years absent because of University. I stopped playing just as Tenergy become hugely popular.
I loved Tenergy, and came back into the game shocked at the huge increase in price - but nevertheless payed the price and got on with it. I loved it.
After four / five months, I realised that the rubber was starting to wear a little bit and would probably need replacing. I then thought about the £100 I would need to spend to replace both sheets.
I decided to try some other rubbers which were 'nearly' as good as Tenergy but a lot cheaper. 7 Rubbers later, I'd spent enough money to buy 6 sheets of Tenergy and concluded that whilst the rubbers were good, nothing can still match the feeling you get from Tenergy 05.
It is great close to the table, and mid-distance. I can chop with it, serve with lots of spin. The 2.1mm version isn't great at smashing the ball, but it's not a weakness by any means. It just isn't as 'crisp'. It certainly has the power to put away any smash.
I'm not sure Tenergy will be beaten anytime soon - only maybe by Butterfly. I just hope they don't keep increasing the price!
