This just about the training my clubs gets per week (+ league matches rarely outside the training time). I think the D09C could be as durable as you have mentioned here. It also higly depends on how you care about the racket, too, I think.

Yeah, I have heard about this phenomenon, especially in the case of Dignics09C. I believe this is because due to the fact these hybrids are actually slower tensors with a little more grip. They do not rely on their track solely, but rather on their grip, as far as I know. Anyhow, I do not know...

Yeah, I feel you. However, even if a Rakza Z is a good rubber for pushing, given it is not to bouncy, it is still spin-sensitive to an extent, so pushing is sometimes also hard. I am actually trying to learn the backhand and forehand flick with this rubber and so far I am doing okay. Yeah, even...

This is what I thought too. This is an outrageously high price for a rubber, even it is that good as a lot of people mention. Maybe I will not buy it neither. I am actually disappointed in the Butterfly rubbers. They tend to be not as good as I expected them to be. I am pretty sure it is a good...

Yes, I have heard that the D05 is at least 2 times more durable. I was thinking of trying it out, but a lot of players stated it is quite a bit bouncy. But, let's say a 6 months of durability would be just fine with me. I do not know if the D09C is capable of that.

No wonder, it is for control and spin rather then all-out speed. Anyhow, I agree with what you have listed here.

I am definitely not a national level player, but that Tenergy was toasted after 1,5-2 months. I may have had a defective one, not too sure. All in all, I didn't find Tenergy as durable as some suggest.

Maybe, but for one session a month why would you buy a Dignics09C. With this amount of training even a Dragon Grip would last for a year. :D

It is a little hard to believe it is going to last for a year or so. One of my teammates play with Dignics09C on his forehand. His previous sheet lasted him 1 year, but he only played twice a week, each session 2 hours. I play much more, basically whenever I can. Tenergy 05 was toasted after 1,5...

3 years? If only! :D

Not too sure, but it is definitely a good choice. I saw that NextLevel has also replaced both his rubbers with the Rakza Z. If one rubber features the greatest balance of price-performance-quality ratio, then this is it. I am tempted to believe the Rakza Z will soon enjoy much higher popularity...

To be honest, my style on the forehand is rather a mixed one with the two you have mentioned here. Depending on the situation, I could go with a quick and aggressive forehand or for a slow and heavy topspins. But I should rather change it to being agressive as the heavy, but slow topspins always...

I am currently playing with the Rakza Z on the forehand, but I am thinking of trying the Dignics09C for the forehand sometimes. I am wondering if the doubled price actually worth it? Would I get a noticable extra spin/speed? How different would it be? Any other experiences or tips? Do you think...

- Innerforce Layer ALC - Stiga Cybershape Carbon (despite a structurally innercarbon type of blade, it plays like an outer carbon blade)

I think of the racket as a "soul and body" connection, where the blade is the soul and the rubber is the body. I think this is the "Chinese philosophy" of the table tennis when it comes to understanding the racket. This is only my personal attitude, but I would rather buy a faster rubber instead...

Xiom Vega Europe. One of the best ones for blocking while being relatively spin insensitive.

I am tempted to believe the Tenergy 19 would be an ideal choice in your case. It is definitely going to feel softer than the Dignics 05, but not as soft as the Tenergy 05 FX. It sits inbetween, so the blocking will feel better for you I think. Due to the harder sponge, it might feel a little...

The Tenergy 19 is 45 degrees on the ESN scale. The Dignics 05 is around 50 degrees on the ESN scale. The Dignics 05 is faster in the long term, if you manage to hit through. On the slower contacts it is slower, but faster strokes will give you good speed. The Dignics 05 might be a little more...

I see what you are saying and I have to agree. Though it is an interesting and possibly working concept, this could be a reason why this is not as popular as other ALC blades for instance. I am about to scratch this idea. May be this is something I do not actually need. I am now developing a...

I am sad to hear this. However this must be true, most of the the online shops I have seen this at has it out of stock. I have seen 2 shops having a small stock. Exactly. I do not know if this shop has it in stock. If the Pro version is the only available, then I am scratching the idea. I am...
