Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question: I’m a recreational player with USATT rating of 800. I would like to get your suggestion of getting a proper blade and rubber for me. Presently I’m using one of those mass produced carbon rackets.
I’m a defensive player with more chops and spin and I occasionally do the top spin and attacks. Please suggest an appropriate Butterfly pre-assembled racket.

Coach Shigang Yang, Ask The ExpertsAnswer: Hi Vinod,

You can use Joo Saehyuk blade with Tenergy 05 and Feint Long III.

Best of luck!
