  1. H8-80 37 degree

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'H8-80 37 degree'

    H8-80 37 degree version. Used by many as a BH rubber, but the 37 degree version shouldn’t be considered ‘ONLY’ a BH rubber. For many people this would be a good FH rubber as well. In the right hands this rubber is capable of high spin levels. Serves are very spinny. Speed is not fast but it has...

  3. Glayzer

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Glayzer'

    I’ve been playing with Glazer on my BH wing for about a month now. Spin levels are good / high, especially when serving, I found that it was easier to put high spin on serves, compared to G09C, Glazer is a pretty stable rubber, fairly easy to control. Blocking is solid, and I do a lot of...
  4. Glayzer 09c

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Glayzer 09c'

    G09C is excellent value for money, especially when talking about Butterfly rubbers. Priced at about £44 & €44 (uk price and Butterfly eu store price, may be more expensive in other countries?) compared to Tenergy Series which is £59/€59 & Dignics Series £79/€79. So it sits above Rozena (which...
  5. Rakza Z Extra Hard

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Rakza Z Extra Hard'

    After using the normal version of Rakza Z, it was only going to be a matter of time before I tried the EH version!!In many ways RZ EH plays very similarly to RZ, as would be expected, the feel is somewhat harder because of the harder sponge, RZ EH is less bouncy on softer strokes, a little more...
  6. Slice 40

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Slice 40'

    Donic Slice 40This was one of the first rubbers I used when I started playing again about 3yrs ago.1.5mm sponge on Backhand. Mounted on a Stiga Def Pro Blade.During practice and play I did swap over the Slice 40 to FH to get a feel for FH strokes.Even though this is a pretty slow rubber, good...
  7. Rakza Z

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Rakza Z'

    I first tried this rubber on a Donic Ovtcharov Dotec off blade, FH only, really liked it and now have it on an Acoustic and Acoustic Inner BH & FH!!! I really like how Rakza Z (RZ) plays and feels, I’m using it with the 2.0mm sponge. I believe the sponge hardness is around 50 degrees give or...
  8. Tenergy 19

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Tenergy 19'

    So, here we go!! took the plunge and bought T19, 1.9mm black, T05 1.9mm red & a Viscaria!!Previously I had tried T80FX Max sponge, this was when I 1st started playing again, so I wasn’t where I am now technically and was ‘rusty’ to say the least!!, I have also used D09C 1.9mm sponge. I have...
  9. Hurricane 3 (National)

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Hurricane 3 (National)'

    I tried out the H3 National 40 degree, 2.2mm blue sponge.I tested boosted and un-boosted sheets.Boosting with 2 layers of Falco long term booster seemed to make little difference to how the rubber played, maybe more layers of booster are needed, or a different booster such as Seamoon.Top sheet...
  10. Rasanter R53

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Rasanter R53'

    R53 is overall a good rubber, it is, in my opinion better suited to advanced players, so my ratings for control are really based on my short comings!! Which will likely be similar to other players of a similar level.R53 is capable of producing high spin levels, for a rubber with a hard sponge...
  11. Primorac

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Primorac'

    Primorac FL, made in Japan model. I really like the balance of this blade, D09C on both sides, not head heavy at all. Fast enough with the D09C. Very good control. Feedback is excellent Enough power for my needs. Definitely one of the best all wood blades out there.
  12. Golden Tango

    Review by 'IB66' on item 'Golden Tango'

    Golden Tango was the first "hybrid type rubber that I tried, used on my BH side. Un-boosted. I used max sponge thickness, red topsheet, sponge is a hard 54 degree pink sponge. Topsheet is reasonably tacky, more than D09C. The rubber and sponge feels hard when you compress between thumb and...
