Just released on Butterfly‘s Japanese Homepage

Tacky rubber, even harder than Tenergy 05 hard

Look out for your pockets ladies and gents!

Maybe an April Fools.

Would it be fair to say this is the Tenergy 09c that Timo was playing with for 2 yrs but needs the Dignics name for pricing reasons?

Or will a Tenergy 09c come out also?

TTstyle · Jan 20, 2020

Tacky, like H3?

This D09C rather sounds like the successor to SpinArt to me.

It‘s named Dignics because it has the newer Spring Sponge X

Yeah probably it's an upgraded version of spinart. Butterfly don't produce spinart anymore.

Butterfly says Boll started testing D09c in the fall 2015. They recommend pairing D09c with outer composite blades such as TB ALC, MJ ZLC, and ZJK Super ZLC.

AFAIK, this marks the first time they mix a tacky rubber with other grippy rubbers under the same model line.

I doubt that it's actually a tacky rubber, they just claim it has the characteristics of one. Sounds like a concept similar to the Xiom Omega Hyper.

SFF_lib · Jan 20, 2020

Hopefully it's tacky

zeio · Jan 20, 2020

It's no doubt a tacky rubber as Butterfly states that it come with a protective film and users should protect the topsheet with a film after use.

I think it will be something like a 54~55 ESN

genrel001 · Jan 20, 2020

So it's a Spinart.

Shifu · Jan 20, 2020

I bet all those Japenese Butterfly Pros with H3 on Forehand will switch.

I doubt it.

vik2000 · Jan 20, 2020

Looking forward to people reviewing this. And I would definitely be interested in seeing how well boosting works on this rubber. I would be extremely happy if this rubber in its original form can play as well as boosted H3 though.

Can you state some names?

Cuz in my knowledge, Kasumi Ishikawa is the only one out of the whole Japan team that is using a Hurricane, on her FH, if I'm right.

While others are using Tenergy and some changed to the Dignics
