Tenergy

Aug 11, 2010 Print PDF

It happened. Why to be only one who didn't try tenergies. Friend bought two new sheets and offered me his old ones, T05  2.1mm to try. These are 1.5 years old, glued at least 100 times with both old and new glue, sponge is very damaged due to removing glues,  probably 20-30% of sponge is missing, rubber is also very old and not shinny, you can see all pips...but it plays like hell :)

I played with same rubbers before, but never on my current Perkosan blade. Blade is very heavy and head hevy, 7-ply, I'd say speed around 8 on Btty scale, good for block and loop, bad for flat kill. It reminds me on somebody's Borko blade (Wingspan?) where he said that blade is good for short touch, and for long shot, but sucks with half long shots and low/medium power. Mine is like that, I'm still not sure is it very good or very bad. Tenergy should be logical choice to add some extra kick on these low power shots. Combo is extra heavy, and this is problem, hard to maneuver. Today I was on small tournament to test combo. Lot of problems with serve returns in the beginning, but later I improved this a little. Opening loop worked very well, opponents could hardly return this, very spiny. Unfortunately after their block, instead of flat kill before, now I had to use topspin to continue attack. I like much more flat kill, but it's quite impossible now, so I had to switch to looping only. Pushing also worked well, block also. Smash and high balls terrible bad, as usual. Best thing with tenergy is that is very easy to sink ball into rubber, so you can loop easier. Possible that "(" or ""movement is better than ")" for some loops, I still have to work on this.  Anyway, I beat some good players I couldn't beat before, so maybe it is rubber, who knows. I played before with 1.9 mm, now it's 2.1, but still loops are into table, which is good.

I almost bought new sriver L, when tenergies came, so I little bit hate this situation, dont like to change plan. Resizing blade would be smart move, maybe 1cm shorter would be better. Although I'm not sure how it will affect block, because of smaller mass?
