I do not think it is "not like tenergy" - it certainly has the dead-ish feeling in short pushes, great ball grab and tenergy-like massive catapult (T-64 FX failed on all three counts, so that rubber is imho the proverbial black sheep of the family). I am just saying that it does not have the combination of qualities that I was looking for. Apparently Andy is of the same opinion. Forgot to mention the weight: about 42-43 g cut to standard SH. |

I have played with T-80 FX a bit more (on BH) and it got better.
However, I think that mostly happened because I moved it to my other
blade (BBC Tachyon), which is slightly faster and slightly harder. Less
bottoming out, more consistent play etc.
Therefore I think that playing it on blades with harder outers (ayous, limba, walnut) would be recommended... thick hinoki, not so much. |

I flipped the racket and played with 80-FX on the forehand of the same combo. And, alas, ... I liked it. A lot. I am saying "alas" because now I will have to expand my set of rubbers yet again. I already have to keep some number of T-05 FX, T-80, KTL Mecahnical, Aurus Soft rubbers. Now I will have to add T-80 FX. Woe is me!

My precise thoughts when reading all this.

I like putting heavy topspin on the ball...

Somewhat true. Thanks for the vote of confidence, my friend. I would still rather play with a T-80 on BH than even with a Palio Blitz. |
