    WD R16 Ryu Hanna/KNY (1) 3-2 A. Mukherjee/S. Mukherjee (4, -3, -6, 6, 8) It's been a while since SYB played WD, especially with Ryu Hanna last at WTTC 2025.
  3. Dignics and its Effect on Sales of Tenergy and Rozena

    The latest numbers are in. Good news and bad news. Good news is Butterfly smashed the previous highest sales record by a ridiculously wide margin thanks to Zyre-03, close to 250 million yens for Q3 (10-12/2025) of FY2026. Bad news is production capacity needs another expansion and the last...
  4. Looking for a Fh Rubber

    The issue stems from the fact that you don't hit through the ball hard enough on most shots. Going with a softer rubber will alleviate it but the issue remains. You need more of this FH @4:13, hitting at/near top of bounce. Look for that metallic, cracking sound. Same for BH.

  8. Anything happened since FZD and CM retired from international TT?

    You don't get it. It was done to cut further losses. WCQ, SYS and WMY (the first two are the real moneymakers for WTT) could've also pulled the plug as well if you put it that way. ITTF/WTT created a task force after that and held a players' forum at Singapore Smash 2025 where many athletes...

  12. Tenergy 19 review, still a smart choice in 2026

    Dignics and Tenergy are still treated as dual flagships by Butterfly in their 2025 catalog. https://www.butterfly.co.jp/catalog/2025ss/#page=9 It's understandable to compare Sriver (1967) to Mark V (1969), but Tenergy (T05 2008/4/21)? It's the role model for all the ESN grippy Tensors released...

    If you want to keep the same thickness, the closest option is C-1, which has the same pip geometry as G-1 but with a softer sponge at 35 degrees as opposed to 37.5 degrees. It will have slightly different feel and ball trajectory. T05 and D05 are actually the same weight and only slightly...
