Posted on Butterfly Table Tennis Question and AnswerQuestion:
Hello, I am coming back into the sport after a long absence. I play Japanese penhold, and am an aggressive player but also want precise control. I need to build a new racket and was considering the Cypress T-Max S with the Tenergy 05 rubber. I was curious if you might have any suggestions, and also, considering the rubber I am unsure of what thickness I should purchase. Thanks!

This Ask the Experts question was answered by Coach Cherry Zhao. She is a coach at California Table Tennis in Rosemead, CA. Coach Zhao’s response is as follows:
Hi Salvatore,The Cypress T-Max with Tenergy 05 is a good combination, but if you like to loop a lot then I suggest that you consider the Dignics 05. Dignics 05 rubber top sheet is sticker than Tenergy 05 and will help you create more spin. The thickness should be 2.1mm. Best!Coach Cherry

The Google Sheets image takes you to a spreadsheet that gives the settings for each drill. While these won’t be the exact settings for the Control Panel on your robot, they will give you an idea of where to start, and you’ll need to adjust from there. At the bottom, we’ve included the ranges and defaults for the setting on a Prime so you can compare these to the ranges and defaults on your own robot. In general, default settings should give you a similar ball regardless of what model you have. If a drill has a change of speed, spin, or trajectory, you will be unable to replicate that drill on a Basic or Start model.
