  • Not As Powerful
  • Some Quality ==>
  • Issues
Used with Hurricane 3 Neo, Hurricane 8, T80, T64, Bluefire M1, Nittaku G-1, Acuda P2, etc.
This blade is a solid choice for control. Although it is not as powerful as a Viscaria, it provides enough power to finish a point. Blocking and doing pretty much anything close to the table is a ease with this. Mid-distance looping is very comfortable because it is pretty flexible. Overall, this is a great choice. I bought two of them at its fantastic price.

This rubber is spiny, powerful, and controllable in the hands of people who know how to use it. Whether it is boosted or not, this rubber will stick to most blades.

Pros
  • Durable
  • Consistent
Cons
  • Not as much spin
  • Really hard
  • Really heavy
I'm not sure if the rubber I got was bad but this is my experience.
First of all, I thought the weight would be kinda like my tenergy. I was wrong.
The rubbers of the Andro Rasant series is incredibly heavy for me (especially when I have a really thin build).
I was hoping the extra softness of the sponge would give me more control but I was not completely right. It did have better control but not in the way I expected. Compared to tenergy 05, it had a more linear and predictable trajectory which made it really consistent.(this is a pretty huge plus)
This was because the rubber was really hard and it felt almost as hard as Rasant which I bought together.
The Rasant Powersponge I received also hard considerably less grip and generated less spin compared to Rasant.
This was disappointing because I could have gotten 2 Rasant rubbers which would have been better than getting the Rasant Powersponge.

If you are a new player and looking for a soft rubber please get Rasant Beat as Powersponge honestly feels no different to the normal Rasant except less grip.
Hope this helps :)

Pros
  • okay durability
  • feels consistent
  • best poly ball
Cons
  • too expensive
So far this poly ball hasn't let me down yet.
It is slower than the celluloid balls but not to a degree that will affect my gameplay a lot like Kinson balls(these balls are super hard n slow -.-)
It is pretty decent for poly ball but the price is a real shocker.
Obviously these balls will be great in competition play but not great to buy for multiballs and training.

I have had this blade ever since it launched and there is something about this blade that makes me keep coming back to it.

It is a very well balance blade that is good for Looping, touch play, serving and also blocking. A quality built blade with a beautiful design.

This blade is good for players who like to loop close or mid distance away from the table and also for players who block. But want to add control to heir game.

I have been using this this Blade with Butterfly Tenergy 05 rubbers on both sides.

very good rubber, if the durability make you worried go for 5Q, enough spin, and block with it is a breeze, catapult effect is low in comparing with other tensors like tenergy, MX-P ..etc, it doesn't sensitive to incoming spin and that ease the blocks and serves returning with it, medium throw angle, it is worth a try.

Rate: 8/10

Colour: Black
Sponge: Soft

I have used T64 for about 6 months. (It was really pricey for me so i used it for a really long time xD)
I used it on my Donic Burn-Off blade on my FH. I didn't really like it because it was too soft, pricey and less spinny.

What i want everyone to know is that it is a good rubber but *** It is not for everyone ***

What i like about this rubber is that it is good on both BH and FH since sometimes i used it on my bh also.
To me, i think all of the tenergy series suits on both BH and FH.
Lets get into the real deal!

It has a low throw angle which makes it easy for you to make errors.
When i first started using it, my pushes would go off the table or into the net.
It takes quite a while for me to adapt to it.

It is really good for people who is dominant BH player. During BH drive, it helps produce a really powerful BH and easy dropshot.
As for serving, due to the soft rubber it requires a really fast brushy movement in order to produce a really spinny serve but you'll get used to it when you use it.
Its nothing to worry about.
*** Really good for BLOCKING but needs skills***
Blocking with this rubber is almost effortless. Yes. Effortless because of the high tension sponge.
FH topspins and loops, when using it for my FH the topspins and loops i had to adjust my technique but after adjusting, the topspins and loops with this rubber is really great as it gives you explosive speed with the help of the high tension sponge.
Sorry if i made it sound like a butterfly advertisement at some point. xD ahahahaha
*** ALSO, i forgot to about the durability part! After 1month of using it, i already felt some lose to its speed and grip.***
Butterfly should have made it a lot more durable since it is really pricey. Im kinda disappointed. :/

I would recommend this rubber for developing intermediate and above.
This rubber would suit people who prefer mid distance play, soft sponge and for someone who prefer explosive speed instead of spin. ;)
Cheers!

Pros
  • Very stable play
  • Spinny
  • High throw angle
Cons
  • Not tuneable
  • could be faster
  • No bounce
Well I played this rubber for over one and half years now. Mainly on Butterfly Alc blades (Boll Alc, viscaria, maze, if Alc) and on the Korbel eu Version. Im going to try Evolution el-s soon but for now Vega pro is my rubber of choice. I pay 28 Euros per sheet otherwise i would still Play tenergy.

Overall my passive Game is a strong key of winning when i Play against opponents on my Level. For me the Vega pro is just Great here. I can punch block, spin block or chop at will. Passive five Stars plus


However i play when i play against weakerw oponents where i have to play active my first ball lacks speed and often length. Due to the hardness and the lack of catapult you have to play the ball with allot of arm and/or wrist accelerstion. This is not for eveyone. So i would prefere a bit more speed and bounce. Still a great rubber if you but power behind your shots.

Pros
  • Controllable

  • great for blocks
Cons
  • far from table
It's my BH rubber (from 1,7-1,8m to 1,9-2mm, always with 2-3 layers of Falco).
Really great for near the table fast topspins and blocks (passive or hard blocks).
It has a good arc (my blade isa Cornilleau AeroSoft Carbon Off+ with low trow) and it's not too heavy.
It also chops well in the table and itis very predictable.
Will try FX-S to see if it has a little bit more spin when brushing

Pros
  • Huge spin
  • Not too heavy
  • Fast w/ booster
Cons
  • Spin sensitive
  • could be harder
It's a great looping rubber with good grip. To me feels better than tenergy 05 to drive the ball.
It's fast enough with 2 layers of booster, it has a linear behavior and due to my tendinitis is way lighter than a MX-P (my previous rubber)
It's a little bit spin sensitive at passive blocks put if you counter top ou usea little wrist it'll be fine.
It's specially good at near the table attacks.
If it was 1 or 2 degrees harder it would beeven better

Good trainning ball for its price. Got 500 for 150 euros with free shipping. More rounded than DHS 40+ 1 star and with better durability. Sometimes I even lightly step over some and they do not dent.

This ball is the most available in my country. It is a little bit expensive 1 dólar each, for a batch of 10 balls, 5 are not well rounded. But, compared to other reviews, mine were more durable than expected. Notice that I use than for multiball and nearly lost 1 ball in each training sesson (1:30h).

This blade suprised me! I was about to buy a JOOLA Rosskopf Emotion when I run into this blade. I have owned many other blades, like IF Zlc, LSW, TB Alc, TB Zlf, TB W5, Hayabuza ZX, Donic Waldner Senso Ultracarbon, Ludeack Fleet, Acustic, PG7, Darker Speed 90, Viscaria, SK7 tactics. But, apart from TB Alc, I have never used them for more than six months. I really don't know if the reason was EJing or the blades themselves. But now I own 2 Joola TPE Fight, have played for a year and half and could say that I'm very satisfied with both of them. This blade have a soft feeling (hinoki outer plus Kevlar carbon as 3rd ply) but also could generate lots of power on fast drives. The feeling also enables a better control of the dwell time and helps me to generate more spin. Both blades plays similar with the same rubbers (Cornilleau Target Pro GT H47 and M43). The only problem is that sometimes, if you do your stroke to passively the ball bounce foward too fast. Otherwise it is a very controlled blade.

Pros
  • Durable
  • Spinny
Cons
  • Hard
It is a very hard rubber! When I played with it, I did not have the technique to exploit its strengths.

Brush looping is great, because of the tacky surface. It help me develop this heavily brushed opening loop. However, it is very hard to make a quality shot by engaging the sponge. The throw is therefore often low. Nonetheless, the tack helps for controlling the ball on topspin rallies. It is pretty tiring to use.

Blocking is good, because the rubber is kind of dead and retains the ball because of the tack, so you can annihilate your opponents' spin and speed. However, it is quite sensitive to spin.

Pushing, chopping and serving are all great, because the tack helps impart huge amounts or spin on these brushed and light shots. If you are used to non tacky rubbers, you might push the ball into the net at the beginning. It requires good control of spin.

Overall, an advanced rubber.

  • Loop
  • Fun
Cons
  • Durability
I used it on my forehand. The blue sponge is cool! This is the most flexible rubber I know of, When holding the fresh new sheet, it flexes so easily. It takes about a week to break in. I think this is a good softer, higher throw alternative to Tenergy 64-FX. I bought it at a discount.

It is awesome for looping. The ball is catapulted with good speed, spin and sound. The arc is pretty high indeed, so it is great for looping backspin. Looping is this rubber's strength, but it might be too bouncy for beginners to fully grip the ball. That being said, the topsheet is very grippy. It is one of the spinniest rubbers I have played with.

Serves are awesome too. My previous rubber was Hurricane 2 Neo. With the Bluefire, I developed my feeling of the ball sinking into the rubber. The serves are very spinny, when the ball sinks into the topsheet (maybe not the sponge, though) and gets catapulted. All kinds of serves work well.

Pushing and short game is a little bouncy. Flicking with the backhand is effortless, but the ball can go long, as it is a high throw and bouncy rubber.

Durability is not as good as the Sriver G2-FX. The grip goes away quicker. It died after a year. But it is still fine.

Overall, a very fun rubber to play with. It makes your shots POP with spin and effortlessly imparted speed, which allows for all kinds of crazy sidespin or slap hits. I would not recommend it to beginners, but to players who have some good touch already.

  • Backhand
Cons

  • Prize
  • Spin
It is a very balanced rubber that does well in most aspects. Compared to Sriver, it is like an improved version in every department, but it is softer, less tacky and maybe lower throw. It has a very soft and flexible topsheet.

It is ok for looping, topspins are not very fast or spinny, but it can be very spinny if you brush a lot. It has a low throw, so it is good for backhand loops, as you can play a very strong and brushed shot and it will still land on the table. I like it for RPB. However, I sometimes find it difficult to grip the ball (compared to other ESN and H3), which is surprising, given the softness.

For pushes, it is not very spinny, but it has that soft topsheet and sponge that absorb the ball, so the control is great. It is not sensitive to spin. I find it OK for the short game, not too bouncy. For the usual backhand flick, ou have to brush a lot, so it is a little difficult.

At first, I was a little bit disappointed by the lack of spin, but it got better after breaking in. It helped me develop my backhand loop, as it forces me to use good technique, especially for backhand open ups.

It is very durable, I do not train but I play casually very often and the rubber died after 2 years. I still find it very expensive for its performance.

Overall, it is a very balanced rubber. You will get good control and decent spin and speed if you have a good technique. I am not sure if it is good for beginners, as it is not very easy to play with. I think the original Sriver is better for learning.

Im using this blade with Hurricane 8 on FH and Xiom Omega V Pro on my BH.
What i first noticed about this blade is that it has a wide sweet spot and is very controllable.
Blocking is effortless with this blade.
It is really good in mid distance. Doesnt require that much effort when playing in mid distance.
I got this blade for 70$ and im quite satisfied with it.
***The only problem is that the top outerveneer is too thin.
Would recommend for any developing player!
