Great video! And Timo is such a nice guy! I'd love to see a comparison between the DHS Neo series rubbers (the Hurricanes and Skylines), since the most popular among these seems to be Hurricane 3 Neo, and seeing them in action rather than reading reviews would be very interesting!
Great job Dan! By the way, you’re pretty famous and popular in the Chinese table tennis community. You should consider venturing into the Chinese community.
Thanks a lot for your review. I just bought my next racket with T05 on FH and Dig05 on BH, only played couple of time now but already love the combination
Awesome video once again! And love Timo, man! Such a gentleman and a superb sportsman. Loved your new idea of starting a comparison series. Maybe you can compare Yasaka Rakza 7 and Yasaka Rakza x next? These two are the extremes of rakza rubbers and rakza being a very popular rubber series, a lot of people are waiting for your guys' reviews on this series! Awesome video as always. Keep up the good work. Love from India!
As always. The best reviews of table tennisdaily are the collaboration with Timo. My Legend. 👍👍👍 Humble and of course PROFESSIONAL. No one can hates Timo.
I think a very balanced and fair assessment. I’ve used both and found the same thing. It’s only worth paying extra if you want that set of characteristics.
Review Butterfly equipments with Timo Boll? That was awesome!!!😍 I hope you can review Stiga Intensity NCT with Mantra H, M or any rubber you like (mainly the blade) in the near future!☺️ Thank you for uploading this high-quality comparison review video!!!🥰
Many thanks to you and Timo, who is a real Table Tennis Legend, polite, humble and most professional. Appreciate very much your thorough review, I think I will be using Dignics 05 on the Bank Hand to have firm Spin and Control.
Awesome yet again Dan and Timo , i always check your videos before any purchase , thank you , I would like to see if there's any difference /similarities between the Jun Mizutani SZLC and the ZLC , is there a great difference between them ? thanks again
Hey Nelson thanks for your nice comment. I would say the SZLC are quite a bit quicker and also feel more crisp. The blades are very alive, the ZLC version is also quick but a lot more balanced between speed and control :)
Been practicing pingpong since this Corona regime and learnt from Timo's video very often, I like it, easy to follow. Thanks for another good video Dan 👍👍👍
There is a massive difference between you playing timo now vs last time, before you barely got a single shot on that isn't a block, and this time you actually have enough power to get something past him, granted I am assuming he was going easy compared to against real pro's.
I had no control with that rubber. Everything was going long and I couldn't hit low spinny topspins as well as with the T05. The rubber also feels slower than the T05. The top sheets of my T05's are consistently tearing on both sides. They say the Dignics 05 is more durable. Hard to believe since the top sheet is softer and more translucent. And I'm not gonna pay such a price without any guarantee that the top sheet is not starting to tear even earlier.
I don't even care that the body cam moved nonstop.. was a great perspective to see just how fast that ball is coming back , especially from one of the top players in the game. Great playing also
I play the Timo Boll ALC with Dignics on the FH and Tenergy 05 on the BH. Based on your comments, I'm interested in flipping it to see the results. I prefer the faster launch when blocking on the backhand and can already grip well with the backhand stroke, but would like to see if there is more spin using the Dignics. I transitioned to Dignics from the Hurricane 8, so the tacky feel and extra dwell feels similar. I do feel the Dignics has more power versus Hurricane 8. Great review. Thanks for the ideas. Awesome to have Timo in the review.
Haha that bit was hilarious! I think Timo's comment there shows how when he plays he always gives 100% and this is one of the reasons why he has become one of the best players of all time. No messing around!
I have had the feeling with the dignic 05, that when there is humidity in the environment, the rubber does not have enough grip. Has anyone else had that experience?
Here's a nice suggestion Dan, when you do this let the professionals speak. We stay with your idea and not Timo Boll's about the differences and what advantages Dignics 05 can bring.
Hey CH Tan, no this isn't England. That's a hall in Francfort (in Germany Frankfurt) When you want something from him, you always have to come on your own terms 😂😜
- red rubber in the video is the dignics 05, black rubber is the tenergy 05. - dignics 05 is a bit easier to block with. 5:50 open ups: dignics 05 needs more racket speed to produce more spin, kinda like the tenergy 05 hard. 7:38 tenergy 05 produces more spin at slower racket speed, while the dignics 05 needs higher racket speed to maximize spin.
TableTennisDaily, when will you officially cross your paths with Pongfinity? All the fans and subscribers are waiting for it! In soccer (whoops, i mean football, you're from England - you know what i mean) the F2 Freestylers have already made videos with their rivals, e.g. Freekickerz. What are you afraid of?
i need the thicknes info, in every review. You give the weight on the rubber, but the weight is different, from 1.9 to 2.1. Soo... what is the thickness of these dignics in the review ?
Dignics is definitely expensive. I recently got a topsheet for my backhand side. Worth $80? No, but I'd say it's worth at least 50. I absolutely love it. I feel like butterfly knows they have some of the highest end stuff and just charge more because they know they can. Kinda disappointing, but at least it's a really good rubber!
Thanks for the comparison and with Timmo Bol he is awesome. What do you think would be recommended considering I use a penhold grip and backhand is much less used if at all. Thanks
I am so curious as to why Timo Boll used Tenergy 05 here when he has been using the hard version. I understand that this is tenergy 05 vs dignics comparison but I was expecting Dan to have these rubbers while Timo use what he is currently using. Unless Timo still use the regular tenergy and butterfly only advertise the hard version on their website
Big thanks to Timo! Hope you enjoyed the review guys! Let us know in the comments what comparison reviews you'd like to see in the future! 🔥
❤️❤️🏓
Can we have Ma Long on the show?:)
Hello dan I wanted to ask please if you could do a review of the new Korean rubbers tmount ace 1 and 2
I tried this rubber on my harimoto inner force on both side dignics 05 it is very grippy
what is the thickness?
I thought about getting Dignics but I ultimately decided on getting a new yacht instead
Probably saved money right?
LOL sums it up
Lightzy how much money did you save
This was already my thinking, when the Tenergy came out. But now. What the hell should i pay for only one of this rubbers? Absolut crazy!
😀
I'm the only one who realize that Dan is playing extremly well during this video.
You're not 😂
Did a few naughty practice sessions before meeting up with Timo! 😅 Thanks for following guys!
I see he is playing at a higher level

I read that while he said it

Oh Sang-eun has the safest backhand on the planet. Change my mind.
One of the best reviews from you Dan; the go pro angle is amazing. And Timo is so nice, truly a legend. Thanks
Wow, Dan
You don't have a lot of problems while blocking timo's topspins, one of the greatest tt players today
You play really great!
Yeah, I'm sure the rubber helps. I might buy it, I need new rubbers anyway.
@@GrankFarrett it's not the rubber
Timo dont do the best of it i thinking
@@Akumetsubg Yes, it partly is.
I’m also sure Timo is not giving 100% there haha
This is so satisfying to watch. Can only imagine how it must feel to play one of your idols. Makes me happy. Way to go, Dan.
Thanks for affirming my choice of Dignics! It's awesome and it has helped improve my attacking backhand!
This is amazing, really great job, Dan, you are playing very good.
I would love to see Tibhar Evolution MX-S and Mantra comparison :)
Thanks. Great explaination from Timo Boll as well, it is so important to know the feel of this new rubber.

Great video! I love it!
These comparison videos are going to be awesome!

Hi, how is it?
I really really like the camera angle on 5:13 it makes the person watching have more looks on spin and speed the ball is traveling
The camera angles and slow mo were quality! Cheeez 👍🏽.

Pure fluke haha!
Great to play with such a champion and be able to keep up.
Nice vid, well played Dan! Really enjoyed the rally's.
I was using tenergy 80 on my backhand and recently changed to dignics 05. Perfect decision!

Do you use a straight handle or flared? And can you make a video talking about the pros and cons of each?
Cool video 👍🏻😉 i also made a movie about Timo Boll some years ago 🎥👌Timo is a very sympathic person 👍🏻 best regards from a small german filmmaker
great idea comparing rubbers and blades
I don't even care that the body cam moved nonstop.. was a great perspective to see just how fast that ball is coming back , especially from one of the top players in the game. Great playing also

Interesting :) So, what were your experiences with flipping the blade sides?
the price difference was the point for me, I really couldnt find that much of a difference so tenergy is the way to go for me
The same.
Welcome back
Can you review the timo boll CAF!!!!
My new favorite channel!
'Timo adding the pressure' never forget :P
Muhahaha Matt Hetherington loved that! :D
Nice POV and slow mo shots
you should have Timo Boll on this channel more often
Thanks…I’m still researching for the perfect racket and Dignics will be the rubber :)
If you turn on subtitles it says t-mobile for Timo Boll in the beginning.
Haha! Often when I refer to Timo Boll to people who don't play table tennis they often think I say t-mobile :)
I love Timo Bollllll!!!!! My idollll
What rubber would you recommend for a 'good amateur' player, I have a nice Butterfly bat but the rubber is a bit chewed and worn!
Great job!

Hey Dan,
Love to see a comparison between the 09C, 05 and 80 in the Dignics range.
Cheers from Australia.
It's not 20%, but 30% more expensive :(
40% in Germany. 80/57=1.4
That‘s the best Review of the D05 !!!
Amazing Dan. You played good against Timo.
- red rubber in the video is the dignics 05, black rubber is the tenergy 05.
- dignics 05 is a bit easier to block with.
