12 years with TENERGY

TENERGY - FEEL THE POWER OF SPRING SPONGE

TENERGY

Since its launch in 2008, Butterfly´s TENERGY has dominated the table tennis rubber market in impressive style. The development of High Tension and Spring sponge technology - and their combination - created the biggest innovation of the last years.

HIGH TENSION & SPRING SPONGE

Combining two ground-breaking technologies in applying tension by default to the rubber surface (High Tension) and the sponge (Spring Sponge) opens up completely new opportunities with Tenergy. Completely redefining Topspin play with its curved trajectory, TENERGY and the power added by the flexible spring sponge make heavy rotation topspins impressive, difficult to answer for the opponent - and highly addictive. The overall qualities such as grippy surface and increased durability make TENERGY the preferred choice for the majority of professional players.

TENERGY & TENERGY FX

Rubbers of the famous TENERGY series are characterized and diversified by the individual Pimples structure of each rubber. The Spring Sponge used is the same on each TENERGY. TENERGY FX rubbers are about 4g lighter and use a sponge 4° softer in comparison, which produces a softer feeling resulting in better control but also in a straighter ball trajectory.

TENERGY ADVANTAGES

  • Outstanding spin performance realized by the combination of High Tension and Spring Sponge Technology.
  • Curved trajectory due to increased spin, making shots safer and more precise.
  • Increased lifespan due to the use of high quality surface with very little loss of traction.

COMPARING TRAJECTORIES

The ball trajectory of a topspin shot hit with TENERGY 05 is a pronounced curve, due to heavy spin. This enables a most precise active topspin play. The trajectory of TENERGY 64 is more flat and low in comparison, resulting in a shorter travel distance and higher speed of the ball. The trajectory of TENERGY 80 is exactly in between 05 and 64, as are its playing characteristics.

SPEED RANKING

In the speed ranking, TENERGY 64 with its fl at trajectory ranks the highest, followed by TENERGY 80 and 05.

   SPIN COMPARISION

The most spin is created on a tangential hit with TENERGY 05, followed by TENERGY 80, then 64. The higher the rotation, the more precisely the ball follows the path of the racket.

To sum it up, Tenergy rubbers are famous all over the world. They became the target of fakers who try to make copies of them. More about the fakes here:
