  1. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    Very different feel. All tenergies are bouncier, livelier and faster than Glayzer (or D05) except perhaps when hitting really, really hard. Open ups and lazy loops are easier with Tenergy, short game much more controlled with Glayzer. The difference between the rubbers are bigger than the...
  2. Just Butterfly Glayzer (on backhand)

    Just switched from Glayzer to MK. The MK has a much (much!) softer feel. It is also slightly slower. Cant say anything about durability other than that Glayzer is a true workhorse that can go on forever.
  3. DHS Hurricane 8-80 review: A great hybrid backhand rubber

    Problem has always been inconsistet weight between different 8-80s
  4. Tenergy 19 review, still a smart choice in 2026

    Do you really think that the differences between 05 and 19 are that significant? To me they are pretty much the same. Don't think I would be able to say which is which in a blind test.
  5. The inside view, design, and construction of factory blades that come to us for repair

    Agree! The handle shape is also great.
  6. Any blades still in production similar to Xiom Hugo HAL or Butterfly Moonbeam?

    Yeah. I believe that most forum opinons differ from this video. The HAL is mostely regarded as a slower, more controled alternative to Viscaria like blades. I think the feel is different, it is a lot softer and perhaps more of a tone downed 7-ply. But distinctively fast it is not.
  7. Best Handle and Shape but MK Carbon too fast 😞 Help

    Do they really have the same handle size? I have an MK7 and the handle is a couple of mm longer than the starndard 100 mm. If the MK Carbon also uses the longer handle that is something Tibhar should use in their marketing! MK7 does not have "Made In Japan" printed and have the head seems...
  8. Any recommendations on XIOM equipment

    This is not my expertise and I really dont know why I even opened this thread but… Isn’t the 36,5 Alxi almost a Ma Long 5 clone?
  9. Is there such a thing as too fast equipment at intermediate level?

    I'm also school three. And my results suffer from it. But I always long for the next training session! :)
  10. New FH Rubber (Glayzer, Fastarc G1, Omega VII Pro)

    I'd say it has a slightly harder feeling than G1. The G1 is more towards Tenergy in that sense. Somewhere in between Tenergy and Glayzer.
  11. New FH Rubber (Glayzer, Fastarc G1, Omega VII Pro)

    Agree! But the differance isn’t that big.
  12. The inside view, design, and construction of factory blades that come to us for repair

    Thanks! I suppose this can be changed by cutting a piece of the handles as well as sanding a bit on the blade?
  13. The inside view, design, and construction of factory blades that come to us for repair

    This is the best thread! Sorry, no idea why the Viscarias differ but perhaps slight changes in production over the years? Been around a long time after all. Whats the chord of the blade?
  14. Xiom Hugo Hal from a perspective of a Butterfly ALC User

    Very much! It is what people say - soft, yet powerful. The only thing I don’t like, compared to the Viscaria used before is the head heavyness. Got some one and off elbow problems.
  15. Xiom Hugo Hal from a perspective of a Butterfly ALC User

    No problems. I’ve got my own now! 😄
  16. SANWEI New rubber Target Europe Soft version

    Sounds like a variant of the Player Edition?
  17. Glayzer vs Dignics 05

    I've played with the two rubbers on different sides of the same paddle (actually two different blades) for some time. My experience is that D05 and Glayzer are very, very similar. If I did a bild test I would have a really hard time to say which one is which when playing most shots. They also...
  18. New FH Rubber (Glayzer, Fastarc G1, Omega VII Pro)

    There is not a significant speed difference between g1 and Glayzer I think. There is difference in feel but otherwise interchangeable.
  19. Fastarc G1 slipping on slow balls?

    ...or to put it in another way - you are just not used to it yet. If you hit exactly the same way as with your old/other rubber then it might happen but you'll get used to it. If you don't have the patience - get another rubber.
  20. Throw angle is not a rubber property!

    Why can´t it be both a rubber and a player property?
