Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Blade: Timo Boll ALL
Forehand: Sriver
Backhand: Sriver

Question: Hi, when I am playing backhand strokes, I feel kind of shock/vibrations in my hand. Is it because of the blade/rubber? Is it better to go for better blade & rubber? Please kindly suggest. Thank you

Answer: Hi Kiran,

The all wood blades such as the Timo Boll All will have some vibration. I would suggest the Timo Boll ALC. This is a carbon blade. This blade will have little vibration and a large sweet spot.

Enjoy and good luck.
