Dignics 09C vs Tenergy 05 | With Dimitrij Ovtcharov

Dima: Tenergy 05 very quick on the first 2 meters but slowing down after
Dan: Whereas 09C is more?
Dima: It's more like...[hand drawing an arc] Yeah, it has the curve, especially the curve, the length. The ball is long. On the first 1.5 meters it's a bit slower and then it gets faster

Dan: It's a hard sport yeah?
Dima: It is. Many people think table tennis is easy, man. It's so hard

Dima: If you do super rotation, and with Tenergy 05, I need to find the right angle. If I don't, I would miss. And with this one I can also find the wrong angle and still put because I feel like "oh it's wrong" and then I correct and then I play
Dan: Ah, okay. You can change at last minute, yeah

Dima: For the hard ball this helps. When you are in good position, it doesn't matter which rubber because you will make a good spin. It's about the hard balls

Dima: Tenergy is faster so...it's easier to bring spin into the ruber with less effort. You do less effort on the serve, you get more out of it with Tenergy. And with 09C, you really need to do it, but you're capable of doing more. That one? You get more when you do less, but you get less when you do more. And this one you need to do more nad you get more. But if you do less, you get less. So it's really up to you

Dan: This is why I think Tenergy is so popular because, with Tenergy, you can sometimes not do much and it has kick and spin
Dima: Yeah x3. It has this catapult. And this one you have to bring it yourself but you have more possibilities

Boll would've achieved more with his right hand.

Stopped the vid after the first 3 hits of Dima. Can't stand that annoying overdone moaning. Even more annoying then Monica Seles back in the days

Besides, video's with pro's talking about their sponsor-equipment are commercials instead of unbiased review/comparison. Not worth watching IMHO.

Still cool for Dan having the opportunity to meet and play with these pro's
