Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Blade: Innerforce ZLC CS
Forehand Rubber: Tenergy 05 (2.1mm)
Backhand Rubber: Tenergy 05 FX (1.9mm)

Question: I am trying to find the best rubber match on my Innerforce ZLC CS forehand. I have tried Tenergy 80 (2.1mm) and found the ball sticking on the rubber (dwell time) too long. Then, I tired the Tenergy 05 (2.1mm) and found not enough power in term of speed, especially for the pushing.

Just a side note, for the backhand, I wish I put on the Tenergy 05 FX (2.1mm instead of 1.9mm). I do not feel much of the rubber instead of the core of the blade.

Any other other suggestions? Seriously, I am about to give up my Innerforce ZLC CS.

Thanks

Clement

Answer: Hi Clement,

I’m using Tenergy 05 FX right now, and I think this one is pretty match your needs!

You can try to use this one!

Best of luck!
