Legend! Pre ordered 2 😂 played with it last night, even more stable than golden viscaria, loved it

Why you called him legend?

Double Andro Rasanter C53 on Vodak Special blade.

 

[Haito]

I was messing around with weight and Shore A durometer. Suprisingly the durometer shows exact same hardness for Tenergy 05 and the C53 :| (35 degrees)

Tried Joola Tronix ACC, looks to be 48 when cut.

The Big Dipper is no good at all.
It has too little spin.
The BATTLE TAICHI has enough spin to rival the H3 and even more bounce.

You know you want it and the golden Viscaria.

You know you want it and the golden Viscaria.

Actually I have been playing witth Viscaria for past one month or so... well, sort of. I am using Falcima, that is, Viscaria without the carbon. This is a five play blade, but do not let it fool you coz this blade is fast for a five ply all wood blade. Pairing it with old gen tensor 47.5 ESN hardness seems to work well. Those more modern super bouncy rubber like Bluestorm et al are good when stroking, but difficult to tame in real match. I am using Tibhar Aurus and Acuda S1, both 47.5.

So, what is my rambling all about? I am having a sampling of viscaria feel minus the carbon. This setup is fast enough for club level play and it tends to favour drive, counter-drive and blocking a lot. For looping, I still prefer my old Acoustic with Dignics 09C.

 

[Haito]

BTW, I am hell confused about hardness. I measured the C53 it was measuring about 35 Shore A. Tenergy was between 33-35, depending on the sheet.

Glory to aliexpress sales, a was able to get all of this(except visc, it was a trade with a friend). Really excited to try YuanJian Zhantian, probably will write a small report about how it plays

I ordered from them some stuff 3 times and it goes through the authenticator, so my experience was positive. But they look a bit shady, so proceed with caution.

Also i don't really think anyone would counterfeit the rubber that no one really plays with. And for me it looks legit, it feels high quality.

Rozena out.
Tenergy 19 in.

The question remains: Tenergy 19 and Dignics 80, which one should I use on the forehand and which one on the backhand?

Normally, the logic would be to use the Dignics 80 on the forehand, but I'm a player who uses the backhand more. My backhand style is more agressive with drive and counterdrive instead of slow loop. In addition, the Dignics 80 is very good for blocking and receiving serves.

On the forehand, I'm conservative, I like to use more slow loops and not-so-fast drive that prioritize precision over speed.

That's why I'm thinking about using the Tenergy on the forehand, especially because in theory it's easier to spin balls where the position is not great, due to sponge being softer, but I don't know yet. I'll test it out and see.

When I had the Rozena, I used it on the backhand and the Dignics 80 on the forehand. But with the Tenergy, this doubt arose.

That is pretty cool! how did you wrap that with paracord with out it sliding-off while playing?

It's fairly secure. I apply beeswax to the paracord before and after wrapping.
