Thanks very helpful. How did the xx compare with Rx for speed spin and control? Did you like the ribber in how it played? I hear it's in the same category as dignics 05 in performance?

Hi, I have used a Razka z (max) and its very heavy for a cut version for a normal size blade, around 52g. Wondering what the weight of the Razka xx is, hopefully its lighter ? . Thanks

I use Decibel X, and it's free - the basic version.😊

Hi , I found both those are quite head heavy. I found the Butterfly innerforce alc more balanced. Its the same as the harimoto version but has a smaller head (normal size head). I moved from a Korbel blade to the innerforce, a nice upgrade in speed but still maintained some of that wood feel. :)

I changed from butterfly glue to dhs 15 as much easier to get the glue off.

The upgrade path also depend on the blade too. Some blades suit certain kinds of rubbers. A know a person who was using tenergy 05 on their Viscaria and it was to uncontrollable so they went to Rozena, still had plenty of speed but now more control. Rozena on a real flexible blade like Acoustic...

Hammond z2, feels good on the FH on FZD alc too, faster and more crisp than D05 without losing control.

Well said, a good allrounder blade with stability and control. It feels in the middle between inner and outer carbon blades - . Has more dwell than most outer blades and a little more direct and pop than most inner blades. The other blades that I like that are outer carbon that are a touch...

On the backhand- a friend uses t19 on his viscaria, I use glayzer 09 on my FZD alc.

Great, looking forward to the comparison. I preferred at least around 88g blade.😊

The outerforce alc, it is somewhere in between Innerforce and FZD. More direct than innerforce but slower than FZD. :)

Just an update. I found Rozena to slow on the forehand so moved up to the tenergy 19 (2.1). It gave it an extra couple gears (speed) and more spin without without losing control. The TBS seems to match well with tensor. rubbers, the T19 seems well balanced on this blade. :) I think this blade...

Hammond Z2, on the Forehand on FZD Alc - I went from D05 (1.9) to Hammond Z2 (2mm), not as spinny but faster and better control. :)

Is the DHS Fan bo bx2 your main blade now? Are you enjoying it? How does it compare with your other blades?

I know this is meant to be a chinese rubber list, but I have been using Nitakku hammond z2 and I find it cheaper than D05 (1/2 the price on amazon). I replaced the D05 (1.9) with a HZ2 (2mm) as it added a little more speed without losing any control but it may have a touch less spin the D05 has.

The other blade for an outer carbon is the Butterfly Marcos Freitas ALC. It has good feeling for a carbon blade (limba outer) it is a little slower than FZD ALC.

One rubber that you may be interested in is Nitakku hammond z2, not sure what price its in your country? On amazon its 1/2 price of Tenergy or dignics series. More control than Tenergy 05, probably in between a D05 and T05 for speed and fairly linear and not spin sensitive like the tenergy...

Maybe it's the handle structure that creates a bit more stiffness compared to FZD and viscaria. I've read on some forums they don't make the tb spirit anymore, but it still on the butterfly website where I am.

Yes the same timber (koto etc) but it feels a bit different - stiffer and harder feel.

Hi, Our table tennis coach uses the timo boll spirit, he tried other blades but keeps coming back to this one. I decided to try one. I am impressed by the stability and the level of control the blade has. I am surprised it it is only rated at 8.6 speed and 8.6 control on rev speed and viscaria...
