Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

BladeZhang Jike Super ZLC

Question: Dear coach,
Could you recommend the forehand and backhand rubbers from Butterfly? My friend had Tenergy 05 on both sides of his, but I am open to other rubbers, too, though I’m no rubber junkie

Answer: Hi Tim,

Thanks for your question and interest in Butterfly equipment.

I recommend for you to either try the Tenergy 05 or Tenergy 64 rubbers. Depending on your playing style I suggest the Tenergy 05 for close to mid distance play with strong topspin shots and lower ball trajectories. The Tenergy 64 is more suitable for the mid distance topspin game with higher ball trajectories.

Hope you find this helpful and enjoy your new equipment!

Best,

Nan Li
