Boosting tenergy

I get great spin with the ZJ super zlc. You are right Carl, when the ball is hit properly the ball jumps forward and doesn't rise as much as the opponent expects. I've seen players completely whiff... or be rushed into a bad or weaker shot. I don't plan on being in the top 10 in the world just yet but if I do make it to 2400 or better I think I'll be satisfied. Then I'll bring my s zlc to a club near you

Did der_echte just call me Eddie Murphy? Lol Wish I had Eddie Murphy money. Then I'd buy the $2000 blade tabletennis11.com has. Lol

I got a sheet of tenergy 64fx. It's got a scar on it from hitting the table and split the top sheet near the edge of the rubber. About a 1 inch long crack. It still plays well and doesn't affect anything at all.

My question: Would it be possible to still boost this sheet or not?

Oh. So I need the secret handshake! Hmm... Is that the $100+ handshake?

Actually I just want to see how it plays juiced up. I've never tried it before myself, but I've played against boosted tenergy 05fx.

sure, when the rubber is almost dead and you think it's no longer playable, why not ?

but then again, it's up to you, it's your money, you'll never know til you've tried. This curiosity might haunt you till your death. It's better to try it and report to us for our knowledge too

I'm not rich person so I'm too afraid to modify my tensor rubber.

Ok. I'm responding back. Second layer applied. The first layer made the rubber curl within the first 6 hours. I'm using "falco long booster" at 12 hour intervals. Wish me luck. Lol

Ok. Just hit with the boosted t64fx last night. 2 thin layers of falco long booster took about 4-5 days to flatten back down after curling from the booster.

Results:
1. Super super super fast!!!!! Did I mention that it's super fast! Lol The top sheet is like a mini trampoline! The ball literally jumps off the rubber.

2. But the sponge has become too too too soft. Power hits go directly to the blade. I use max thickness for t64fx and it's still going straight through the sponge, right into the blade. You can actually hear a muffled knock sound upon contact.

3. Spin is significantly decreased on loop driving shots. It's going to take some time to get my timing back because I haven't hit in a couple of months due to a knee injury. But loop drives are flying off the table because the spin just isn't there anymore. You have to brush and hit the ball very thin if you want to impart spin. Minimum contact or the ball will sail long.

Recommendations:

Don't boost t64fx or any fx version of tenergy beyond 1 application. I strongly suggest not boosting it at all. The sponge just can't take the pressure. Lol
But if you do, remember that you're going to have to change your stroke on the loop drive from a power stroke to a spin stroke! Just that simple
