Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question:  I am an intermediate/advanced player and play close to the table. What paddle and rubber do you recommend? Budget is around $150. Thanks!

Answer: Hi Ray,

Thanks for your question and interest in Butterfly equipment.

I recommend for you to try the Timo Boll OFF- blade with Sriver G3 on both forehand and backhand.

This offensive combination fits not only your budget but also your close to the table game. It provides you with great control combined with much speed and spin.

Hope you find this helpful and enjoy your new equipment!

Best,
Nan Li
