Most players that use what they will tell you are real rubbers (t05 or tensors) will also tell you that TG3 is a better backhand rubber than forehand, they don't mind it on the backhand as a slow spinny control rubber

the #22 blue sponge is a different story. It plays much better than the orange.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have tried the Tensor ESN rubbers (e.g. Rakza) and they don't quite work for me. For me, they lose their vitality very quickly and while somewhat less expensive than Tenergy, still quite expensive. The Beijing IV is reasonable but doesn't quite have the dynamics I am looking for. Thanks again for the recommendation. |

Basically you want a hitting rubber. If tenergy are out of the question, I've been reading reviews of Xiom Sigma Pro and Adias P5 that are suppose to play like tenergy...they are on my short list of rubbers to try, I know what you mean about the price of Tenergy.

Thanks. I have some Tuttle Bejiing IV which is pretty light on the BH right now and it works pretty well. I was just wondering if I could get more action using the Neo rubbers on the BH. I will give it a try. Thanks again.

If you want to try chinese rubber on BH. Please use the light rubber, they have the same characterisation as ten 05. So for me, TG3 neo is the best one.

Definitely topspin smash game and I can generate speed using the same whipping motion with wrist as I do on my forehand. But I have to be able to sink into the ball so I can catch it and whip through it. Not sure any of the Chinese rubbers are proper. The Tuttle Beijing IV is OK but a little sluggish and I am not too excited about spending Tenergy prices if I can find something that is more reasonably priced. The Tensors are just not for me. I can use Joola Phenix but I thought maybe the TG3 might work but I have never tried it.

think I will give up the idea of buying a unmarked sheet. Even at 40 degree, its quite hard n fast too. More playable after a few weeks when the topsheet softer and slower.

Depends what style you play on the BH side...loop, chop, drive, smash?
Some of the top CNT use tenergy on the backhand side. Since the BH can't generate as much speed as the FH side.

Which is better for the backhand? H3N, TG3, or go looking for something else?

H3 Neo vs TG3 Neo : TG3 Neo is lighter, a little faster.
H3 Neo is slower, but spinnier. TG 3 Blue Sponge : Really bad, the sponge is too soft. Dont buy it.

well, my 2.15 is the unmarked commercial one sold by ttnpp. i also tried a 2.2 marked hardness one which said 39 degrees. the 2.15 unmarked feels a little bit harder to me; maybe 41, hard to say

wow my post above just made me realize that I've stuck with TG3neo in red on my forehand for nearly five months now.... that's not very EJ-litically Correct of me
I do have one rubber waiting on me for forehand testing though: TG3 neo in black |

TG2neo compared to TG3neo has a noticeably lower throw and less spin for drive. Otherwise they are very similar.

IMO TG2neo seems to dwell longer especially mid/long table game.. while TG3neo feels more direct.
perhaps when i hit it really hard.. if not not much diff imo. I havent prime my piece of TG3neo yet after 3 weeks of play, as it becomes bit slower, but still ok.. how to do it anyone?

TG2neo an dTG3neo are very similar imo.. only when you move to mid/far table we sees the big different.

I've been playing with TG2 Neo 39 degree hardness for a few weeks now. I find it to be a good looping rubber. It's weakness is smashing, there is no feed back when you go for a no spin hit at high speed. But high speed looping there is plenty of feed back when the ball bites into the rubber. You can feel the restistance increase as the ball's topsin is being reversed off the paddle.
Even though I got the factory softest sponge, it is still pretty hard compared to the t05. Compared to TG3 and H3, this rubber feels like having the most control when you spin. In comparison to the t05 the biggest difference is the smaller bounce in the rubber. So the ball is slower during serves and hitting when using the same stroke.

Though i find that it is a bit faster and less tacky than the H3 Neo, which i played for a little bit, it IS slower than it is rated, 8.9 at tabletennisdb.com in terms of speed, Blitz has 9.1. Thats a joke, they have more like 20% (7.1) than 2% (8.9) difference. I can't understand the way people rate such rubbers. The main reason i bought that rubber was the speed/spin ratio and i was very disappointed. Will try to write a review when i have the chance. |

TG2 Neo is ultra-tacky and is the spinniest of the H2/H3/TG2/TG3 clan. It also has the densest sponge. However, TG2 Neo's tackiness makes it feel slower than the other three.

I haven't tried H3 Neo extensively, i can do it in a couple weeks but i don't expect any miracles to happen. As i remember it, it was another dead sponge tacky rubber, not for me. I would prefer something between Blitz and TG2 sacrificing some speed and spin. I don't like the idea of tuning so they don't fit my game. 2008XP (not thicker than 2mm) or 729-5, they are quite faster and about same spin, you will spent around 20$ for both. Off topic FTW! |

Few words i have to say about TG2 Neo, skip and go for 2008XP. Its 1/3 price and has many similarities in behaviour. Only con i remember is the extra weight, otherwise i would prefer it over the TG2 Neo. Among the -few- chinese rubbers i've tried, i liked that most along with 729-5. I will probably be able to get back to training soon so i could write some kind of review though it is late for you, it might help others. |
