I finally realised why it is imperative to change a Tensor rubber once per three or so months.
It's simply because it gets softer and the whole feel changes. After 3 moths of playing with the Tango Extrem everyday, the last 3 times I have played with it, the feel was noticably softer than from a new sheet. Man, this is more reason to spend more money on TT stuff  |

no no, that's my point, before it gets to wear out...the feel changes dramatically.

My Xtend HS feels the same after 6 months. My friend used to use Tango Extrem as well and his got harder and less dynamic over time, especially the topsheet.

You'd better go to Bryce Speed. I got one as soon as it was released (set/07) and after this 6+months it's still perfect. And I expect it to last another 6 months.
