Fantastic feeling (if you are not too far from the ball)- perfect rubber for allround/offensive players who REALLY ENJOY the game of table tennis. Just a little bit too slow if you want to finish with the fast topspin.

ZLC of the timoboll series is aa lot feel like the other ZLC, mjun and amultart. in terms of speed probably the tbzlc is teh slowest. control wise, i would say it is the best. it is really good for driving, counterdriving, blocking, and counterlooping (when i mean drive i mean kind of a sidespin countersmash mechanistic hit). the weigth is much lighter though, which is one of the things i do not like. it is too light, so you can not get lots of power on your loops like you can on amultart. it is really not a blade for me, not to mention it is very expensive as also. so it depends on you style.

NATT uses theese on the tour and the teams tournyament now i think. theyre not bad, considering its from joola which never really was that known for its products. they have okay playabaility characterisitics. In the first few matches feels jsut as good as any ball. actually i would says these balls last longer than butterfly balls. they are pretty standard 3 star balls, more than great for any local tournament or just club practice or play.

once very popular blade but noow not so much because speed glue is not allowed so it is not as good so not a lot of people use it, but still pretty good blade for its relatively cheap price. it has very unique speed and touch and sound feeling. it sort “clips” the ball, producing very swift, quick shots. the wood is medum hardness, absorbs some shakiness too. it is relatively heavy paddle to me, but may be different for other people. one thing that is not optimum is the durability. seems to chip and dent and tear VERY easy, so you have to be careful when regluing. otherwise, its wroth the buck.

the new version of hurricane 3, with built in speed glue effect. i dont know it is a little bit different that speed glued hurricane 3. it seems to be faster with not as much tackiness too me. it is not liek old hurricane 3 where the top shet was completely like glue, this one is pretty smooth, more tacky than tenergy though. the speed is still very good for looping. it feels a lot different than old hurricaen 3 because ball shoots out of the rubber more, also with a little bit more control. i call it a tenergy adaptation to hurricane 3 rubber. i think it is rpetty good, but i prefer tenergy.

wave drive 3 is my FAVORITE shoes. really the only downside is that it looks kind of boring, but that is easy to fix just get some fabric die and outline some edges and itll looking smokin.

i think tenergy 05 bryce speed fx and sriver g2 fx are comparable in their hardness: tenergy harder than bryce harder than sriver. Sriver g2 fx is def teh softest of the three lines of butterfly tensors. it is not as good for really advanced players as for people developping loop. it is not very fast, good for a solid control blocking game (like kentas ) it has spin between bryce and tenergy, the topsheet is really not at all tacky. the sponge is not very elastic eitehr, so the ball kind of sinks ito the rubber. it definitely has differnt feel than bryce and tenergy. best used on backhand in my opinion.

i use free chack to glue my expensive tenergy to my expensive amultart mizutani. it is my water glue of choice. theres really nothing that special about, no speed boost, no spin boost, sounds maybe a little better after you glue. I like about it is that it is very easy to use. it is relatively fast drying water glue, dries in 10 minutes or less. also it can last a very very long time. you just have to use a little bit each time and that can keep your rubber glued pretty good for a month or two depending on how often you play the table tennis. it seems expensive, but really costs me maybe 20 dollars each year for 1 medium size tube.

this is THE glue to use in asian countries, everyone uses this glue. it is one of the fastest glues ever made. you can tell my teh appearance. the glue is extremely thick, and it also smells fullof volatile compounds hehe. it will make any rubber blasting fast. it is a very popular speed glue in china especially, made for players who have very strong looping on both sides in their game. there are people who should not use it though. if you do not have very solid fundamental strokes with bad feeling, it will be too fast and out of control for you. but if you have very good loops already, go ahead and try it out (of course only for recreational player)

bryce speed fx is kind of like inverse of tenergy 05. it is for similar game, for really hard loopers, but it has a completely different feel to it.
