Ask The Experts

Blade: Viscaria FL
Forehand: Tenergy 05-FX
Backhand: Tenergy 05-FX

Question: I am intermediate skill player. Strength – FH , BH – medium. I wanted my backhands to be a little fast and spinny. I wanted to know if Tenergy 05-FX will go well with Viscaria on my backhand. Also since my FH is strong, will Tenergy 05 be good on the forehand or Tenergy 05-FX?

Thank you.

Answer: Hi Subhash,

Thank you for question and for playing with Butterly equipment.

For your backhand rubber – YES, I would recommend that you use Tenergy 05 to produce more speed. Also you may want add more risk action when executing backhand stroke to produce more spinny shot.

For your forehand, I think you’re good with Tenergy 05-FX.

Good luck with your game and I hope this helps.
