Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question: Hi
I’m considering ALL+ blade. From the description Timo Boll ALL blade is a bit stiffer than Grubba blade which is said to be more flexible. What difference does this make in the play?
Which rubbers would you recommend for the above mentioned blades?

Answer: Hi Rade,

The stiffness of the blade will make it a bit faster and the sweet spot larger. This is a good wood blade. It’s hard to recommend a rubber without knowing your playing style. I use Tenergy 05 1.9. Any Tenergy rubber will fit this blade well.

Enjoy,
