DIGNICS 05 which booster to use ?

[Lazer]

I have tried:

1. Dandoy bio booster. It's effect is virtually the same as pure paraffin oil. There no obvious difference between the two. I believe this is pure paraffin oil.
2. Falco booster. It has a better effect than pure paraffin oil. This is probably refined somehow or some additive that
give a better reaction.
3. Haifu Seamon booster. This has the best effect. It takes a longer time to sink into the rubber. It has some additive that makes it more viscous. Its also almost like its thixotropic. This may make it evaporate slower and thus have a
greater effect.

But the main ingrediency is still paraffin oil.

And You are right the process changes the rubber forever, Its basically destroying it by resolving. That's the reason an over booster rubber becomes mushy and unplayable.

Falco long had little effect on d05 for me,1 layer on ageing Tenergy 05 worked well I should revisit the d05 seems to have worked for others?

After playing with both T05 and D05 I can understand why boosting D05 is tempting. Dignics rubbers are harder so more physical effort from you is required to generate spin. Having that extra kick would allow me to survive few more rallies before I gas out and faint like a pokemon

Dignics 05, which sandpaper to use? Which microwave? Which toaster? Which cheesegrater? Which TP?

erm ... okay ... I guess I am a Superman then? because D05 is easy like Sunday morning. it's almost too easy, that's why I changed it for D09c on backhand. what I honestly believe is - and sorry for being completely hones - if someone says D05 is a demanding rubber - well, it's a skill issue. so instead of boosting a rubber, maybe work or your technique? maybe use a less demanding rubber? just trying to be honest and helpful.

For me it's not a skill issue but cardio issue. With softer rubbers I don't get tired as fast.

so why sticking with Dignics05 then? why not Tenergy05?

I like the more intensive setups it helps me burn more calories

 

[Yurifi]

but if you boost D05 you basically get ... T05 ...

No best booster for your body than going to the gym. That's valid for young people, not valid for +65 years old like me.

Get unboosted H3, or at least D09c then. You don't want booster if you want to burn calories!

And hello tennis elbow, shoulders, back muscles and other problems

I'll play aggresively with unboosted H3 on a DEF- blade

So that I don’t open a new topic, I’d like to ask something here.
I was looking at Haifu boosters from well-known table tennis equipment sellers, and they are noticeably more expensive than the ones sold in some AliExpress stores. Has anyone tried the AliExpress versions? Are they different compared to the Haifu boosters sold by official shops?
If someone has ordered from AliExpress and had good experience with them, I would appreciate a link to the store.
Specifically, I’m looking at this one and would order it for a friend who only plays recreationally:

He is interested in the Haifu NY booster. He currently plays with some very hard Chinese rubbers, although I’m not sure exactly which model.

Thanks
