Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question:  I am a beginner/intermediate player about 1200-1300. I was thinking about using Tenergy 80-FX on my backhand. I am an offensive 2 sided looper. Is it way too soon for me to be using this rubber?

Thanks

Answer: Hi Ben,

Thanks for your question and interest in Butterfly equipment.

The Tenergy 80-FX is a great choice for your style of game as it makes it easy to create topspin shots while still have great control.

You will be absolutely fine choosing this rubber for your level of play as it will not only help you improve faster but it will also make the game much more enjoyable.

I hope you enjoy your new racket!

Best,
Stefan Feth
