Blade: Butterfly Mazunov
Forehand: Joola Rhyzm
Backhand: Joola Rhyzm 425

Question: I have used a Butterfly Mazunov blade for the last 10 years. I would like to switch now to a new technology blade. I hope this will help me to play good when I use a plastic ball. What can you recommend me? I like a hard feel blade. Fast. I play close to the table. I played table tennis for 30 years. Thanks

Answer: Hi Peter,

Thanks for your question and interest in Butterfly equipment.

I recommend for you to try the Timo Boll T5000. The hard & fast feel of the blade is the perfect blade for your close to the table game. Your 30 years of playing experience should help you adjust quickly to the Timo Boll T5000.

Hope you enjoy your new blade.

Best,
Stefan Feth
