Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Blade: Donic Ovtcharov Carbospeed
Forehand: Tenergy 80
Backhand: Tenergy 64

Question: Do you know any blades that have a better feel than my current one … also do you know how to get sponsorships from Stores such as Butterfly (Sorry, a bit off topic).

Answer: Hi Daniel,

Thanks for your question and interest in Butterfly equipment.

I recommend for you to try the Timo Boll ZLF blade. This blade has a great feel for topspin shots and provides much control for the passive blocking game. The harder ZL fiber inside the blade is lighter in weight and is perfect for a looping style.

Regarding your sponsorship interest, I recommend for you to write a introduction about yourself and submit a resume to the Butterfly distributor in your country of residence and to your authorized Butterfly dealer close to your home.

Hope you find this helpful and enjoy your new blade!

Best,
Nan Li
