On FH it's so crisp. It's like you're biting into crispy chicken. It's definitely a controlled rubber on FH, great alternative. BH requires less finesse and more power. T05 is more finesse and less power. (First time hitting with T05 and I was hitting all passive shots long, all active shots...

Yeah, you really have to engage the sponge to create spin. Good for forehand but backhand had my fair share of slippage. The v> rubbers tend to have that characteristic.

I want to double down on it's durability. It dies so fast. I only used it for 1 month, 3-4 times a week 3 hours per session and it became extremely soft. I loved it when it was new but it's playing characteristics changed so fast. I'm switching to T05 for now.

I've been thinking between the Tenergy variants, T05,T19 and T80. I just don't know. I love the power from the V15, i just hate that I can't get it over the net sometimes.

I feel so close to my staple BH rubber, the V15 is just lacking arc for me. Too many times where I contact the ball just a little off and I can't bite the ball without more power. I need something with similar speed but more bite/grip or higher throw.

So if ppl use very hard rubbers then it's suited for them? Kinda hard to generalise if one's equipment requires a higher skill level.

After playing with V15 Extra for a month, I can say that it's plenty fast. Now my problem is the lack of a catapult effect from it. It also drops into the net too often for me. On forehand it's probably a great rubber but on backhand, I'm gonna need more give. It also ends up slipping sometimes...

My setup adding the V>15 extra and using a hard Chinese forehand rubber is proof that it's pretty heavy.

V15 extra, although they do have discounts for all models of V15.

In light of the discounts, I'm gonna order a v15 and see how it goes.

My local shop's having discounts on V15 for under 40 USD (~35 USD). They really making me want to buy one. Also selling hurricane 3 provincial blue sponge for ~40 USD as well

Yep. D05 is also like a 50 degree rubber. It's got similar power but compared to 48 degree variants of ESN. It's faster on all accounts except for away from the table.

Honestly I'm probably getting a T05, I've borrowed someone's racket with D05/T05 on Viscaria. I practiced with short pushes, punch, topspin, looping. They all went very deep for me or short for the pushes. If the feeling of playing with it feels the same as the ESN rubbers I've used in the past...

Id prefer not to buy in bulk before I try out the rubber.

May I ask why? Dignics and Tenergy in my club sells for under $80 USD (they have a discount). I don't think there are any rubbers that sell more than those two.

First time hearing about TTNPP, they have mostly everything except the hammond and R48. So it's between V15, Bluestorm, Dynaryz, T05 as I've had my previous MX-P die on me very quickly. Non-boost MX-P felt terrible. Right now I'm leading more towards T05 as my club owns a butterfly shop or V15...

What's the durability of these 2 (excluding MX-P), compared to Tenergy's. My whole group uses butterfly rubbers on at least one side and they last a while. 5-6 days a week training for 3 hours (not including competition). They usually replace every 3-4 months.

After you listed all those rubbers, I just realised how many rubbers our country doesn't have available locally (at normal price). We only have the MXP, V15 and Bluestorm, (Nittaku is a figment of my country's imagination).

My country sells most xiom products except 07P, it has tour and china but no europe or pro. They do sell the V15 at a normal price, I just don't know anyone in my group that uses/used victas before (they all use butterfly, donic, xiom, joola or a variety of chinese rubbers).

I actually don't want to go any faster than the rhyzer pro 50 when the sponge is engaged. I'm looking for a softer rubber than 50 degrees because I can't create my own speed. If I play against someone with lower speed or spin then I often have an underpowered backhand. Also unfortunately in the...
