More reviews on the Butterfly Tenergy 05 Rubber here: www.tabletenni...
Hey guys, today we are joined by none other than the table tennis legend Michael Maze reviewing one of the most popular rubbers of all time, Tenergy 05 by Butterfly.
This is by far the most requested rubber review we have ever had, so it is finally time to find out if Tenergy 05 lives up to hype. Used by many of the top players including Timo Boll, Zhang Jike, Michael Maze and of course many others. Last week I headed to the Denmark National training Centre to pick Michaels brain about this rubber and find out why it has become so popular and what makes it so special. Hope you enjoy the video!
Thanks to Michael Maze and Butterfly for this fantastic opportunity.

Hey guys, thanks for watching, who would you like to see us do a review with next? Let us know in the comments what you think of Tenergy 05 💪🔥
Ma long
I mean with ma long
When Tenergy 05 hard?
Tenergy 05 Hard with FZD
Tenergy 05? Never heard of her.
The only real issue of Tenergy 05: it's too bloody expensive.
and fragile like a sheet of tissue..
it is of 80 dollars and 10000 rupees
In Saigon, its only about 64 dollars.
DHS is life
and does not last that long
Great video. I remember Maze from 2009 in European Championships. At that time he was even better than Boll and the rest. Just pure talent. I wish he could have achieved more in his career when he was healthy. Congrats Dan for another review. You are already a legend on youtube.
You're alive! Thanks for all of your good quality vids. Never delete them!
Oh ttCountenance I miss you on UA-cam! Thanks for the support dude! I remember watching the 2009 Euro Final on catch up on your channel back in the day, almost 10 years ago! Time fly's! Hope to see you sometime 💪
Miss your videos 🙄
Wish ttCountenance still made videos.
I'm with you ttC. I think Michael sits up there with JOW as the most naturally talented players we've seen. He and Timo are still my fav players (although Niwa is fast becoming a fav too). It was devastating when Michael had to end his career early, although he looks in pretty good shape in the vid.
I love the slow motion shots!! It's a great thing to put in the reviews!
Michael Maze is so humble about his backhand. His backhand flicks were exquisitely wonderful to watch.
It would be amazing reviewing 05 hard. Or h3 national bluesponge boosted or non boosted with ML blade. A lot of people want to see that.
Hey Aerox, 05 hard review coming soon. Ma Long review would be nice will look into it. Thanks for the comment!
man that slow mo of micheal maze chop block, requires insane timing and top notch skill
And Michael has bucket loads of both :).
I played Tenergy05 on a Timo Boll ALC blade right from the start of my tt 'career'. Its an absolute beast of a bat. Since i did like 10y of combat sports i have no issue keeping up with speed of it, excercising the right technic.
I fastly climbed up in skills and in the ladder aswell (started to beat much higher ranked club members). Now on this new level i feel like i lack some controll with the bat. Therefore i switched Tenergy05 Fx. It feels like its a little bit more soft, thus your moment of ballcontact is a little bit longer, leading to more time on the ball...
If all hell breaks lose, i switch to my second bat, which is the michael maze magic from butterfly with xiom omega elite IV on it on both sides. This bat offers a little bit less speed but more spin overall. Since its no carbon you also feel the moment of contact better in comparison with the Timo Bolls ALC.
Overall i'd say im pretty happy with both bats. And also the strat of having to bats which are comparable but one is a little bit slower with more controll worked pretty well for me!
Hey Dan,
It always a pleasure watching your videos, its quality, editing and the content.
I always look for review comments from upcoming/club players rather than players who are well versed with the marketing strategy of brands; one of the reasons being that players who are using such expensive products have got them without paying anything whereas an upcoming player would've bought it and will know its actual value.
In your next video, I expect a female player from your club, who is a league/local tournament player, who is not sponsored by any brand.
I do understand that it is difficult to get equipment sponsor for such videos, but that is something what I look forward to.
Cheers
Chintan Mashroo “expect” 😂😂
I would love to see a comparison of 05 and 05FX.
And now with the hard, maybe a 3 way comparison would be in order.
How about Harimoto for the next one!
have always enjoyed watching Michael's style of play...awesome
I have recently bought 2 sheets of 05 after many years of not using Butterfly. The difference of Tenergy to other rubbers is still tremendous, table tennis finally makes fun again even with plastic balls. I can honestly only recommend if you have the money to use tenergy rubbers.

Руслан Тагиров haha good one 😜
he uses t05 to do that, super impressive
After 10 years of playing TT, I'm finally good enough to utilise T05!! Woooo!!!!
Does anyone find once the T05 topsheet is worn off it becomes a very infuriating rubber to use due to lack of control. Doesn't take long for topsheet to wear out either. Not great for the price point :(
Have to say this is the most unexpected review ever. Especially in 2018. I mean T05 ? I don't think there is any other rubber, which has so many information about it on the internet like T05 in the entire table tennis history. Basically every other rubber review has to answer the question, how does it play compared to Tenergy 05, because thats the rubber almost everybody knows.
I would love to see a review of the Nittaku Fastarc series :)
That chop block was 💪👌
great review , I started using it few months ago and suddenly my counter topspins all land on the table. I think 05 hard would be the logical rubber to review next
chebkhaled1985 How often do you have to change it, assuming that you are able to maintain the rubber with cleaners etc?
And in 10 years from now we'll get a review about the tenergy 05 hard 😂
Yes. Next reviews will be about Sriver El, Tibhar Rapid and Yasaka Mark V. )
Денис Давыдов Hi, do you know some good places in Moscow to training ?
@@felmusik5043 Hi. Sorry, but i am not from Moskow - i live on Black sea coаst, it's around 1500 km from M.
Денис Давыдов oh ok! thanks anyway I will find out, sure there will be a good gyms to training.
@@felmusik5043 If you need just play, you can go to rttf.ru - there are many announcement about moskow's tournaments. Moreover, there is forums, where you can find information about traning and practice. (Sorry for my english).
On the market there are many rubbers with excellent performance about spin and speed...too much similar 05 and the price is incomparable...The difference between Tenergy and another rubbers is the weight you can transfer on the ball. A really good alternative is Xiom Vega Pro for 25 euro is a great choice!!! Maze is fantastic...great talent...
xiom vega pro feels diff than t05. A boosted xiom vega pro do resembles a t05 though.
Great review as always, but really odd timing for a review of 10 years' old regular 05, while everyone wants to see just released '05 hard' review...
Leo K. Think about it. No point doing an 05 hard review without doing a 05 review first else you wouldn’t be able to compare the new rubber. Got to think a little deeper
Please review Butterfly Tenergy 05 hard
Lots of Pro, are using Hard 43° versión.
You'll have to wait 10 years like for this one ;)
IHadToChooseThis1 Why ?
@@tati1422 because the version this review is about has been released 10 years ago
IHadToChooseThis1 oh yes okay ^^
But check a little bit down, the review is coming soon, that’s cool ;)
Please review the acoustic/acoustic carbon!
My level is around USATT2000. I can't control T05 against high level players, say USATT2300+. I don't have that problem with T80.
Watching after the hack, finally back!
Love that no look shot!
Zhang jike does not even play with Tenergy 05. He plays dhs hurrican blue sponge on the forehand side and tenergy 80 on backhand!
''For a moment I felt like Hao Shuai'' only real TT fans will understand this xD
Memorable xD
R.i.p
I am young tt player, can u explain please?
好帥？🤔
@@adamcang4683 hao shuai was a Chinese national player who dominated Michael in a match back in 2003 I think he was 3-0 up on Michael then Michael went back and started lobbing and fishing and won the match
That go pro was really good keep such things more in video
Hey Karan, awesome we will keep using it in the future :)
@@TableTennisDaily hey Dan another suggestions please follow it as well, if possible
First play entire game and don't talk with champions, later after conclusion make a question answer round, ask question which you ask in between game
Please some review with Joo Saehyuk.
I am a proud Tenergy user..!
certainly Michael is not playing school book tt. Pulling the topspin forehand from far too deep. But who are we to criticize such a player. He looks like the fittest of them all with tons of energy and muscle tension.
But I am also pretty sure that his career won' t last that long as you need great fitness level for his style of tt.
How did i get on this side of youtube... who knew the padding on a ping pong paddle made a difference. Screw it you got a new sub
MIchael Maze - the chop block king!
100% Ridiculous shots!
Great review, I'm gonna try this rubber. Could you do a review of Tenergy 05 Hard and Yasaka Rakza 7?
markjmarkjack that us a good ask... I have heard rakza 7 is a very good rubber, but I've never used it... I've used tenergy hard... I still prefer the traditional tenergy 0.5.
I also like mxp and stiga mantra m... I would like to try rakza 7....
Here's a review of the Rakza 7: IT FUCKING SUCKS!
Happy?
Seriously though, the Rakza 7 is horrible for anyone who plays at the highest amateur level or professional level. Doesn't matter which blade you use it on. Doesn't matter which side you use it on. It fucking sucks.
Anyway, don't worry so much about rubbers, if you're not at the highest amateur level or a professional. The blade is 80% of how a racket plays. Rubbers are 20%. Pay up for a great blade that has characteristics that match your style. Then, get a rubber that has the right throw angle for your forehand, and a rubber that has the right throw angle for your backhand. You'll notice that a better blade for you changes how rubbers behave quite a lot. I'd recommend paying up for everything and just being happy with everything. Save up to get the best. But, make sure your skillset matches which top level rubbers and blade you choose.
Either way, fuck Rakza 7. I'd rather have Rasanters all day, if I'm not going to pay up for Tenergy or Dignics
@@ttjesus4959 I had good results with Rakza 7/ R7 Soft on my Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Special but it currently has Tibhar Evolution MXP on both side of it.
@@markjmarkjack Depending on how much you play and what level you are, definitely get a better blade. If you want the best of the best, go for Butterfly. If you don't want to pay top dollar, then Donic is the best of the rest for blades. Xiom have some interesting shit too. But, they're hit or miss, and some of them can be heavy.
I personally am a high level professional. And I just switched from the Primorac Carbon to the Revoldia CNF. Tenergy 25 on the forehand, Tenergy 05fx on the backhand. But, I tried the Dignics 09C on the forehand and Dignics 05 on the backhand. And I also tried Andro Rasanter R53 on the forehand and R50 on the backhand. The Rasanter R50 is one of the best backhand rubbers of the middle price range. You may find one of the Rasanters to be suitable for your forehand too. They're definitely better than Tibhar and Yasaka.
But at the end of the day, the rubbers aren't as important as the blade is. And the Revoldia CNF is the best of the best. It has every gear possible. The technology makes it feel like wood and play very soft on pushes. But, it also makes it play like fast carbon whenever you want as well. It can do it all. Usually goes for $399.99 though. The best blade that isn't Butterfly is probably the DHS Hurricane Long 5X, commercial version of Ma Long's blade. $200 usually.
And btw, go to prott.vip if you have any interest in actual pro versions of blades and rubbers. They're all legitimate. And no, I'm not affiliated with the site in any way. I just know that it's a way to get pro stuff, if you want it
Never clicked so fast
Aha you were quick Andy!
hey dan ! what is your classement ?? (number of points). your videos are awesome ;).
PS: i also use the t-energy 05 , it' very cool !
Hey Loozmi, good question aha. I'm not that active in competition anymore but recently got back into competitive play. Playing in the British League currently :)
ah okay. you have a great level ^^ thanks for your videos.
I like when you play with professional players, its amazing :)
If Tenergy 05 in Forehand, then whats a good match in backhand? Donic or butterfly? How about the type?
Nice Review. Dan kindly review DHS Gold Arc 8
Super Video !! Thank you Dan ;)
Great video Dan
Better is Tenergy 05 or Tenergy 80?
Hello Dan..nice video..how do you compare tibhar evolution el-s against tenergy 05..please let me know
Abhirup Bose Tenergy 05 way way way better in every way. Very simple. Apart from price of course 😉
Hi Dan. I just wanted to ask if Tenergy 05 fits to me. I’m playing the Rasanter R47 right now. Can you please tell me if it fits to me or not. I would be very happy.
Same question , have u tried from R47 to T05, how does it feel ? Thanks sir
Do they come with black
Please review Tenergy 64
ive used this rubber once and loved it. really helped my power (my technique is good enough to handle and control the shots) but concerned about the longevity i get out of it. i keep hearing it dont last long. feedback pls guys, really want to buy these rubbers but i need to know how quickly they die on me. thanks in advance
All the time it is said that normal customers can't buy the rubbers professional Chinese players use... But... Is it different with European players? I mean... Timmo boll uses the same tenergy 0.5 that I buy in butterfly shop in my country... Is it like that?
Im just curious to know Before tenergy was released (2008), what was the most popular rubber used by pro players?
Speed glue Sriver and speed glue Mark V maybe?
BTY Sriver speed glued
Not anymore... Ha, ha, ha... Now tenergy is far above the rest. But there are other rubbers which are best sellers too (not much as tenergy, but popular anyway).
Tibhar evolution mxp
Yasaka rakza 7 (this should be reviewed here by Dan)
Stiga mantra m
Dhs hurricane 3, etc...
I've got two racquets... One primorac carbon with mxp for both sides and a jool flame extreme with tenergy 0.5 on both sides too... Both very good paddles, but the blade flame extreme is too extreme I guess... Ha, ha, ha..
Hi dan what rubber do you use?
Kk football skills skills Dan use Stiga Génesis S
Exactly such rubbers are for maze and bolls of the world..please do a video for average mortals like me .(amateurs or intermediate)
Hi Dan
Great Review.. I'm one of the avid of your channel, From Philippines. Can you give me some tips on the rubber you said in this video "a slower less responsive rubber"?? I'm in my development stage of playing table tennis.
I will appreciated it much and looking forward for your response.
thank you
I wish TTD would review Nittaku Acoustic.
Hey! It would be great to see a rewiew of the donic ovtcharov true carbon blade if you can☺
Btw all your video are really greats!!
I used to use tenergy 05fx first few weeks it feels good but later on it feels too mushy and slow and you really have to work on spin by using lot.of brush technique since the rubber gets very slow quickly ..I now prefer hard rubbers like calibra lt plus ..they generate little less spin but monsterous speed and power ..
Epic review!
Hi Dan, your video clips are always a good review for specific rubbers or blades from single brand. Could you please make some comparative videos/reviews with critical information. For example, T05 vs MX-S/ BLUESTROM Z1 ....where the viewers may get the essence of comparative information, which may suit for the price and requirements based on the playing standards. You may please consider this request. Best regards...Dr. Subhsis Chattopadhyay
I though, that Michael play with blade btf maze or freitas alc. When he did change the blade?
I am planning to buy my first customised blade and rubber. Pls suggest some in budget.
Any alternative?
What rubber would you reccomend for an amatuer flat ball player?
Why you not review tennergy 05 hard
Great video!
What is the name of the grey Butterfly short Michael Maze is wearing?
The modern tt training is build around tenergy05. This is why it's so widespread. Just an 'industry standard'
Would you please ask him why does he choose timoboll alc / spirit than his old michael maze alc blade ? Highly appreciate
Please review Rakza 7 pls,thankyou
I'm also a long time Rakza 7 user. I tried Tenergy a few years back to see what the hype was all about. Found that it was very similar to Rakza 7, but did not last so long and was a lot more sensitive to fine angle of attack hits [plus Rakza 7 was significantly cheaper]. ie, going for maximum spin short serves, or fine contact high spin counter looping there were relatively many instances where the ball just squeaked off the rubber instead of the rubber maintaining grip - anyone else get that ? Anyway I went back to using Rakza 7.
@@johangamb did you use plastic ball?some people said rakza 7 lose some spin with the new ball and experience slippage..rakza 7 soft grip the new ball better so they said.
@@mobiusnnaito2543 Yeah actually I did switch to Rakza 7 soft (from several years with the hard) round about the time the plastic balls came out - did not consciously consider it being due to change in ball, just happened to try it and felt that i got some of the original extra attacking shot security back that i had originally felt when i started using R7. Thought they had maybe just changed the production process slightly for the hard version, but yeah maybe it's possible it was the ball after all.
@@mobiusnnaito2543 I use Rakza 7 FH/ R7S BH with Nittaku plastic balls. It seems to play well but compared to the celluloid Stiga balls it feels lighter. The polyball feels faster off the rubber and the celluloid seems to have just a little more spin but that may be because the Stiga is heavier.
Razka 7 is great for amateur to intermediate because it’s not as sensitive to incoming spin but it does not last anywhere near as long in my experience. For players who need that extra 10-20% speed and spin Tenergy 05 is a much better choice.
Did you know T-Mobile uses this rubber?!?!
Great post man
Zhang jike plays with a viscaria blade, and for rubbers he uses a hurricane 3 national and tenergy 80 not 05...
Why not put the tenergy topsheet on the bryce speed sponge
Killerspin stilo7 SVR Ping Pong Paddle - Limited Edition (Carbon Fiber blade primarily)
(And thoughts on opening up the potential for different blades for ITTF)
Tenergy 05's
Any top 10 player and their view on the blade, would they be interested in moving away from just 85% compositions!
To everyone.
In your country ,how much is TENERGY series?
In Japan,it is about 8000 yen.
Too much. I use it, but my rubbers are 2 years old, and getting tired. Swapped the forehand for something else cheaper, took it off after a week and put the old Tenergy back on. Current uk price is £56.
@@playandteach South Africa is Rand 950.
Can you help me suggest what rubber is great for my blade? My blade is Yinhe y14 and I wanna use Stiga rubbers on it, can you suggest what should I use on forehand and backhand
does it come with two sheets? or do you have to buy two
Why does Maze prefer the spirit over the ALC?
TheMegaboyd why not
Can we please have more of the fpov? It looks awesome
Hey Adamundane, glad you like it. I didn't think it was going to be as effective as it came out. Will be doing more go pro in the future :) Thanks for the suggestion :)
Boll ALC or Boll Spirit?
Alc
Dan says Michael was using the spirit at the beginning of the video...
My favourite combination🤔🤔 viscaria with fh tenergy 05 n bh tenergy 05...its like spin machine
Mine too
Nice Video Bro!!
I used 05 for a bit awesome rubber.
But I say it not very durable. I played 3 time a week for 6 months.then dead,
It’s good for pro as they change rubbers more often then a club player.
it's dead because rubbers lifetime is 6months only
„Downspin... open your eyes!“ ;D
Love that flash reference? Shway? Or am I dumb
Zhang Jike never used Tenergy 05 FYI. He used to use Tenergy 64 and now he's using Tenergy 80.
Now please also review tenergy 05 hard Dan sir
Plz review best budget rubber
Tenergy 05 or 05 hard?
Can you guys review good shoes for TT? Can’t really find any reliable one?
Is it realy so difficult to handle it with t05 for mid-pro player ? I was thinking to buy it on my stiga hybrid wood blade actually.
in short yes, but you never know until you actually tried it yourself. But more importantly, the durability of the tenergy rubbers is extremely low, and consider how expensive this thing is, unless you have a lot of cash to buy new ones every 2 months, otherwise you might well go for something else.
Hin5525 I find Tenergy 05 to be way more durable than say Evolution MXP but neither keep their top performance for very long
Can we use tenergy 05 as forehand by red
Welches Holz Spielt Maze in diesem Video
Hello! I want to ask which rubber is better, this or the andro rasanter 47 resently reviwed by u guys! I am using now a donic bluefice jp 01 turbo in both sides. Was thinking of using a slightly softer rubber with as much speed but a touch more of spin on my FH, and I am considering getting a tenergy (idk which), or the andro R47 that is suppose to have 9.5 of speed and spin.
My bluefire is lacking a bit of "feeling" when hitting the ball on my FH, thats why I might change it.
PLEASE PLEASE ANSWEAR ME¡ thanks!
you never mention the thickness in your vids. just cuz its like everyone is using the 2.1mm ?
Can you make a review about the genesis 2 rubbers
does anybody know what blade michael maze is using?
I'm a casual player
Any cheap product u guys can suggest for me and my brother
I want to upgrade our game
Currently using pre made dhs a4002
The 4002 has nice rubbers (careful with the fake dhs). But the blade is really bad. Recently I have buyed the 4002 but I removed the rubbers and used them in a new Yinhe v-14 pro. I'm very happy with the result, the hurricane III is nice with the v-14. I think Yinhe is the best option for blade and rubbers. I coulded take the rubbers off easily, but I think that was the case because it was original. I buyed both blades in Aliexpress, dhs in "Runjia and xin wang da shopping mall" and the Yinhe in "xvt table tennis" shops. You can trust them.
so many years after rubber came out
that means the technology has stopped for so many years.
I was thinking of using this for chopping on my forehand with the JSH blade. is that a good idea?
Lets go for Tibhar VS Unlimited with Vladimir Samsonov)
Pls do Tenergy 64
