Blade: Tibhar Carbon
Forehand: Butterfly Sriver FX
Backhand: Butterfly Sriver FX

Question: Hi, I currently play club table tennis and want to take my game to the next level. My style of play is offensive both on my backhand and forehand. I have been reading about the Butterfly SCS 5000 pre-assembled racket and want to know if this would be a better or suitable option. Other suggestions are most welcome. Regards

Answer: Hi Zico,

I am not very familiar with the pre-assembled Butterfly SCS 5000, but I would recommend you try the Timo Boll ALC with Tenergy 64 on both sides, per the fact you are an offensive player, because the rubber – Sriver FX you are currently using is kind of slow.

Thanks
