The Tenergy 05-FX is a great backhand rubber, but with a high price.

Speed:
Tenergy 05-FX offers a high amount of speed with out the ball flying off the table.

Control:
It has excellent control. I can block with ease and direct the ball anywhere.

Spin:
This rubber offers great spin. I can create slow spinny backhand loops with fly off my opponents bat because of the underestimated spin.

Overall the best rubber for backhand, only downside is the price and durability. My favorite rubber for backhand period.

I have been using this blade for the past year, and so far I'm impressed. It has a very large sweet spot.

Speed:
The Hurricane Long 3 offers great speed. There is no more need for me to loop with full power when wanting to kill the ball, as the blade provides great assistance in this category.
Control:
Although the blade is marked OFF++ it is still very controllable. It offers me high speed only when I need it so my touch shots don't suffer. I can block with ease and can position the ball to pretty much anywhere i want it to go. When I play I occasionally chop to add variety to a fast attacking rally, this blade offers me excellent control when I need to chop, the ball never bounces off the bat and past the table, even when chopping a fast loop.

Overall the Hurricane Long 3 blade is a excellent blade for both all out attackers and all-round players. Offering the user great speed along with control. It has a very nice looking design. The only downside to this blade is its huge cost and weak top ply. The blade splinters easily when peeling off rubbers. Varnishing the blade is still only optional because if you pull off your rubbers with enough care, then it will remain like new.

The Hurricane 3 Neo Provincial is a very tacky Chinese rubber. When new, this rubber is spinny as hell, it is also a very controllable rubber compared to Tenergy 05 because it is less bouncy. Close to table counter hitting and counter looping is very precise and very easy points can be won by one counter-attack. The only downside to this rubber is that it needs breaking in time. After 1-2 weeks the rubber will play quite differently from when it was new.
Over all it is a great rubber for beginners to intermediate players and is a rubber that I would recommend for players with a Chinese styled forehand.
