Butterfly Ask The Experts No. 426- Equipment Suggestion

Posted on

(By: Bowmar Sports Team)

Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

Question:

I want to downgrade on my blade because it’s too fast. I narrowed my choices on Harimoto innerforce ALC and Harimoto innerforce ZLC. I am a competitive recreational player, mostly near the table with occasional top spin loops and banana flips. What would you recommend and why?
Thanks

Answer:

I suggest you continue to use the Lin Yun Ju Super ZLC blade. I recommend you change your rubber from Dignics 09C to Dignics 05 for both your forehand and backhand.

The combination of Lin Yun Ju Super ZLC and Dignics 05 will allow you to do everything you want to do. I use the same blade and rubber combination myself.

Best wishes!
Coach Adeyinka
