Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question:

Blade: BTY Photino
Forehand Rubber: T05
Backhand Rubber: T05

Hello. I love my Photino 79g blade so much that I want to get another as a back up. Sadly BTY stopped producing them. What blade is almost identical to Photino? Please advice. Thank you.

Hi Erick,

Thanks for your question and interest in Butterfly equipment.

In my opinion the closest blade to the Photino is the Timo Boll ZLF blade.
