First time printing with TPU. Another problem I had was that it didn't stick to the textured print bed, had to go for smooth PEI which I read (and now can confirm) is not ideal. Would satin be better?

I don't go above 20 mm/s for any print setting with tpu.

All depends on your extruder. A decent extruder should have no problems with 200mm/s+

Just because you can't get it working doesn't mean it's impossible. Vez is printing tpu benchys under 6 minutes, so it's clearly possible.
