Tenergy shouldn't start to lose it's grip until 6 weeks to 2 months, unless you play with it everyday with a crap ton of spin. Tenergy does give you a better feeling out of the blade, compared to other rubbers and you get that 'click' feeling when you get a good loop out of it

Are you not liking the blade? the rubber? or both? Sometimes some rubbers just don't feel as nice on certain blade. For example, I hate putting vega europe on TBS or TB ALC but I absolutely love them on Mizutani ZLC. I didn't my Innerforce ZLC as well with MX-P but with something like Tenergy...

In what sense do you want it to be lower than T05? Speed? Spin? or both?

I'd get EL-S or MX-P if you are looking for something that can be compared to Tenergy 05. I'm happy with my EL-S so far. It's a tad slower than T05 but almost just as spinny. The only difference is that you won't be getting that super easy brush loop that you get from a T05

Is this basically a trial or just a warm-up competition? I don't see Ishikawa, Niwa and Kenta in here

Can't go wrong with clipper as long as you're not a beginner

Probably try out Tibhar EL-S. One thing to note is that if you want a spinny rubber, the rubber most of the time will be reactive to spin as well.

Just put on EL-S and FX-S on my Innerforce ZLC and the rubbers are "different", not in a good way. The FX-S especially for some reason drops ball a lot. Not sure if that's due to condensation in a cold room or just a characteristic of the rubber. The EL-S feels decent on the other hand but it...

I havent really seen a lot of 7 ply wood player who wants to get 7 ply carbon. Usually people upgrade from 5 ply wood to 7 ply carbon because 7 ply wood are either heavy or thick. I love stiga clipper, but it’s both too heavy and thick for me so i stick with BTY carbon blades that are 88...

What about EL-S though? I've been meaning to ask you btw about using EL-S as T05 replacement since I'm moving to australia and Tenergy is basically costs double ($100) that of other ESN ($55). Mostly looking for high throw angle and similar speed to T05

But he actually uses a TBS / TB ALC with donic handle

Perhaps EL-S on FH and EL-P on BH?

Basically what yogi said. If you like heavier (> 88g) blades in the first place, 7-ply wood is just excellent. I love clipper to death and this is coming from a guy who's been going around using high-end BTY carbon blades.

When pushing, not so much as it's thick and 7-ply. When looping, probably about similar to TB ALC but the you're getting the all-wood vibration instead of the ALC flex

IF ZLC / Apolonia vibrates a lot during soft hits but once you start putting power it feels really stiff to me. Clipper might be your best bet. I really liked whenever i get to try it. The sweetspot is larger than 5-ply all wood but it still has the all-wood touch albeit being a bit stiffer...

Why not upgrade the rubber if you want something faster?

I believe it's either limba-limba-ayous-limba-limba or limba-spruce-ayous-spruce-limba

No, it's not disrespectful but the depending the way you do it, it can be. One of the players I really like when it comes down to choo-ing is Marcos Freitas. You can see how his voice goes up when choo-ing depending on the situation and the rally. His opponent missed a loop early on, low voice...

I just watched the match between the two and I find XX attitude to be somewhat normal. When you find someone like harimoto who just start choo-ing every point, sometimes you just gotta choo back to assert yourself and to counter the mind game. Not to mention the pyschological annoyance being...

There's something special about it and it's the spring sponge feel. Butterfly's idea is to sell rozena for people who feel tenergy is still too fast or spinny for them but like the tenergy feel and I think rozena ticks these boxes down. I do feel rozena would be awesome if it has a tad more spin...
