Tenergy 64 (Butterfly)

TENERGY 64 is the fast attacking rubber of the TENERGY family; the No.64 being the development code of the pimples used in producing this reversed rubber. BUTTERFLY High Tension technology has enabled a fast dynamic rubber to be produced by utilizing the innovative SPRING SPONGE.

SPRING SPONGE enables a player to “grip” the ball and “catapult” the return back at high speed and with heavy spin.

TENERGY 05 is recommended for playing close to the table; TENERGY 64 is for the attacker who plays for the offensive play in a middle distance.

A truly gorgeous rubber! It is in my opinion the best rubber for the modern topsin player, together with the Tenergy 05. They are very similar indeed, however, the 64 has a softer feel and an increased dwell time. On the right blade, e.g. mizutani jun, kreanga carbon, it gives you a unique playing sensation and possesses a tremendous catapult effect. It is easier to block or to counterloop with the 64 than with the 05, because it seems less sensitive to incoming spin. Nevertheless, it can generate the same incredible amount of spin like the 05. I have the impression, that the 64 is more forgiving than the 05, which makes it suitable for less skilled players, though it is by no means a rubber for beginners, because the more skills you have, the more you can get out of it. If you play a harder blade and are a topspin player, you should definitely give it a try!

Anyways, tenergy 64 is very similar to tenergy 05, the main differecnce is that the 64 is softer, with more spin. It also has better control, with a lower throw angle.

So yesterday, during my routine training, i tried some tenergy 64 given to me by a friend, and i put tenergy 64 on one side on my mizutani and tenergy 05. I played with both sides changing every few shots. I found that 64 was not as good as 05 for the forehand, since it lacks the high amount of speed, but i thought it was awesome on backhand. The enhanced control and spin was exactly what i needed to make my backhand shots better.

I think it is a great buy, if you can find some :).
