Donic B-cuda vs Tenergy vs. Hexer

maybe you'd see more tenergy wins if there was a way to prevent boosting?

do you think it's safe to say that a boosted sheet of DHS rubber can keep up with tenergy (in terms of spin and speed and control, while maintaining a superior over the table attack and short game).

How can you make a statement like that without even trying the others. That just shows how naieve you are, totally blindfolded by all the advertising that Butterfly does..

Bosivegas - you made a statement saying that Hexer is Similar to or between Solcion and Bigslam. How wrong could you be.  Giving other members false information like this.

Hexer is much harder aqnd faster than both those rubbers.

ive been playing with baracuda 2.0 both sides on my OSP Virtuoso for 8 months (3 times a week training). i switched from tenergy 05 and found baracuda a bit more progressive and "speed glued like" and finest arc, easier to handle incoming effects.. i played a month with hexer/baracuda 2.0 and found hexer is a bit sharper that didnt fit me exactly. but if there werent baracuda i could play with hexer for sure, rather than tenergy 05. both hexer and baracuda lasts 5-6 weeks while tenergy 7+. i would also mention the same generation joola xplode that is a bit harder but not as much as tenergy, and tibhar genius that is more speed glued like but let the ball sink too deep for me... hope that helps

In my honest opinion, hexer is softer and a bit less spinny than Tenergy 05, and it has a lower throw angle. Baracuda is softer than Hexer and is a bit slower.
