Is Andro rasant grip spinnier than Tenergy 05

[ZB12345]

I wanted to know whether the rasant grip is spinnier than the Tenergy 05. I've seen on a website that rasant grip is spinnier than tenergy 05. The website is: www.tabletennisdb.com
I'm really not sure about that but let me know if that is true or not.

I believe rasant grip and rasant Powergrip are not as spinny as T05 and I would not recommend getting either of these rubbers as their life span is poor

Hey there

Thank you for answering
Well i never tried rasant grip or powergrip but i tried tenergy 05 and it's really spinny. I wanted to know how Andro rasant grip could be as it was rated spinnier than Tenergy.

And can you tell me which is the most spinny rubber ( euro/jap ) aprt from Tenergy.[emoji2]

If you are basing assessments of rubbers on numbers from companies rating things like spin, you are in trouble. It you are using numbers of speed and spin ratings offered by players of varying skill levels with varying abilities to feel what they are doing, you are in more trouble.

The best way to judge things like that is to try those rubbers and see.

One of the reasons this is the case is that different rubbers perform differently with different kinds of contact and different players use different kinds of contact.

So if you were looping from mid-distance with Tenergy 05 and getting massive spin and then you used the same exact technique to loop with Hurricane 3, you probably wouldn't even get the ball on the table.

The other reason is obvious: a player with better touch and feeling is a player with better touch and feeling! A lower level player has less of an ability to judge differences and less of a background to compare different rubbers. Usually a lower rated player has not had the opportunity to try as many different kinds of rubbers and blades to make more informed opinions. And even if they had, that player may not have the ability to judge the differences between two rubbers in any useful kind of way.

And tabletennisdb does not sort out people who review based on their ability to feel the differences more accurately.

So those numbers could do more to confuse you than anything else if you are trying to think of them as literally as you are.

Another thing to understand, the "fastest" rubber is not necessarily the one that will be best for you. Same thing for "spinniest".

But you can guarantee that there is a reason that at least 9 of the top 10 are using some form of Tenergy on at least one side.

There are also a few reasons why all the top players from the Chinese team are using some version of DHS H3 or TG3 on FH.

I can tell from my experience as i receiving spin from both of this rubber from one player on one blade .... They are both monsters in generating of spin and from the side of receiving it looks like both have the +- same spin . when the opposite player has played with different rubbers like Omega V euro or barracuda there are not so much spin ... but then also boosted rakza 7 is a spin monster .... But then i played with week player with Tenergy 05 and there was no spin ....
I personally had rasant grip and it has lots of spin ... but i newer played with T05.

I can generate more spin with Baracuda than with Rasant Grip. It depends on the player. Tenergy 05 is still king for me amongst regular rubbers.

Rasant Powergrip is a very spinny rubber, it's a monster on serves and topspin, decent for blocking and decent in the short game.
Being a spinny rubber it's sensitive to incoming spin also.
It's a good rubber and not overly expensive either.
I used it last season and enjoyed playing with it.
Give it a bash I say!

Agree

NextLevel,
How do you thing a boosted Baracuda would behave? In regards of speed, would it make any difference?

A slight difference, yes. It makes it more playable at higher level but still not as fast as Tenergy. The grip is fantastic and I think the plastic ball has actually helped.

What kind of booster did you use? How many layers? I have also tried most of the Bluefires but i still find Baracuda a better choice in terms of performance/price.

 

[NextLevel]

I tried Falco Tempo Long once and only one thin layer. Other better boosters might exist though but for me, Falo makes Baracuda slightly harder as well as curlier so that helps with looping harder.
