Ask The Experts: Byung Jung An, No. 319 Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer
Question:
I am a national level player. At present I play with above mentioned rubber combination with Dr neubauer world champion ply. My forehand drives are compromised due to my current blade I always feel and I wish I could still have better backhand control. My serves and BH blocks with maximum spin reversal are the strongest points of my game. I definitely want to switch over butterfly blade without changing my rubbers combination. I do play spinny loops and powerful smash drives. In no case I want to loose my BH bolcks control which I play very close to the table. I do follow Luka mladenovick style of play. Please suggest an appropriate blade for me. Thanks and regards Dr Tushar
