Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Blade: Gergely
Forehand: Tenergy 05 1.9
Backhand: Tenergy 05 1.9

Question: I am looking for a new blade. And I am searching for something similar as Gergely, I played with Gergely for more than 10 yrs already. My new blade may be a bit slower than Gergely.
I do not play very aggressive (which might sound strange with the equipment I use), I have a good block and love to counter attack.

Answer: Hi Thomas,

Thank you for your inquiry.

You have been using our fastest and one of the best-selling blade. If you are looking for slower than Gergely, I would recommend Viscaria FL because the Viscaria feels solid, refined, crisp and sharp. Blade is fast, explosive power and controlled when needed. It is very suitable for mid distance looping and hitting. Also, it is good touch for the short game pushing and blocking with Tenergy rubbers.

Good luck your games & thank you for choosing Butterfly!!
