Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question:

Hi. I am looking for advice on pimples. Can you please suggest a good short pimple in butterfly for backhand. I have a good backhand and am strong in push and block. Forehand I do a slow top spin and try to get into playing more counters. Can you advise if my blade is correct or do I need to change that as well. I feel Nittaku pimple has good deception but is hard to play with and not good for rallies

Blade: Innerforce layer ALC
Forehand Rubber: Tenergy 05

Dear Swetha,

 Thanks for the information!

 I think you already have a great blade that suits your demand, while on the backhand side I suggest that you may like to try the Speedy P.O. , which is a well-balance short pips rubber.

 Hope you will have a great experience with the new product!

 Best wishes,

 Coach Wenting Zha
