Tenergy 05, Tenergy 64 FX, Bluefire M1, Bluefire M2, Fastarc G-1, Fastarc C-1. Hi I would like you guys to rank these rubbers using this format:
-speed: x<y<z
-spin: x<y<z
-control: x<y<z
-throw angle (high to low): x<y<z
-physically demanding (least to most): x<y<z
-ease to use (easy to hard): x<y<z

I have T05, Fastarc, and played with Bluefire for a longer while:
  1. Speed T05 > G1 > M1 on spin shots, on flat hits M1 > G1 ~~ T05
  2. Spin T05 > M1 > G1 considering the maximum spin, if you technique is not up to spec I would say M1 > G1 > T05
  3. Easy to play: M1 > G1 > T05 (M1 is the easiest, T05 hardest)
  4. I have no idea how to measure throw angle, I adapt seamlessly to the rubbers so cannot talk about this, sorry.
  5. Physically demanding: G1 > T05 > M1
Bluefire have not spin sensitive topsheets, T05 is quite sensitive but for quite some time it does bother me so much. Learning proper technique is helping me a bunch to cope with T05.

The big issue with that is the perception of rubber changes in regards to your skill. Example from my life:

MXP 3 years ago.
O heck this rubber too bouncy, I can't play with that. My BH sucks with this I can't place the ball nor generate spin.

MXP now:
OMG, this rubber so good for BH. So easy to place shots with spin, I barely have to do anything!

Hear hear hear.

Now I love my T05 and can understand why so many pros love it to death!!!

Open ups are effortless. I was previously using M1.
