BTY has 3 bands - Rozena, Tenergy and Dignics priced at $39, $79 and $93 respectively.

What a nice trick to make people think Tenergy is no longer expensive.

I am thinking Tenergy has a reasonable price, because other manufacturers started to put their price point close to Tenergy. Therefore my brain finds 60€ is preferable price. I mean, at least for Germany. I don't care Dignics's price too much. Tenergy has proved itself sufficiently.

I was using the Tenergy series for a while until I switched to Dignics05 on both sides. All I can say is, the transition seems to be doing well for me based on my style of play. But yes, it can get really expensive. Although if you find a distributor friend, they might help you out with cutting a bit of the price.

Yes other ESN rubbers are slowly increasing in price. But still quite significantly cheaper.

For example, the German R53 probably has the a feel closest to Tenergy's Spring Sponge X in the market. R53 has a equal, if no more spin than T05. Way better short game and service.

Price - R53 $53 ($45 on special Magaspin). T05 $79.

But I have to admit that I am unclear of their durability difference.

So Sieger is a runaway success? Haven’t seen much about it.

Are these the top rubber sales in Japan? Do you hav blades to ?

Things are back to where they were once again. G-1, Rozena, T05. D09C running out of steam?

As with many other newcomers, Sieger is out of the Top 10 after merely 1 month.

I would have thought Hurricane 3 was on that list. Quite a few Japanese pros are using it. Not popular in Japan?

Loving the fact that Mark V is still one of the top rubbers. I'm using a different set-up now but Mark V was the beginning of it all. LOL

and the discount is live again(it might've been on sooner but just checked), its pretty often and the only things getting this discount, kind of weird and not really a flash sale considering it lasts till the end of the month. So this is probably the normal price of the rubber without the bt tax.

In Slovakia, a lot is played with Tenergy 05, but now they are too expensive and most switch to Andro Rasantera.
One eshop now offers a sale of coated tenergy in old packaging.My colleague from the club will now order from them 2 x Tenergy 64 fx and 2 x Tenergy 80 fx for 46€/1pc. tabletennishop.eu

If it's good enough for Satoshi Aida it's good enough for everyone (outside of the CNT).

Maybe if everyone played like Satoshi Aida. But they don't.
