Clearfield Proline

 
Clearfield Proline      US  $113.99
    CAN  $  N/A
Regular Price $124.97

The Clearfield, excellent blades for backhand counter and forehand close-to-table loop games. Used by Chen Jing, the 1996 Olympic Silver Medalist and the 1999 Brazilian Open Champion. This proline racket is assembled with Bryce 2.1mm Red and Speedy P.O. 1.9mm Black. Bryce rubber is powered by High Tension, which reduces energy loss at the ball rebound as much as 18% compared to other rubbers. As both rubber and sponge are flexible and highly resilient, they catch and absorb the oncoming ball and catapult it with your own added speed and spin. Speedy P.O. is a high quality pips-out rubber produced in close cooperation with Butterfly's elite players. It gives precise placement whether attacking or blocking. Note: No substitution of rubber or blade allowed on Proline rackets.



Cypress-S Proline

 
Cypress-S Proline      US  $164.99
    CAN  $164.99
Regular Price $184.98

The actual blade and rubber combination used by Chiang Peng-Lung. The Cypress-S is a one ply Penhold blade made of Japanese Hinoki. Great balance between speed and control. Add Bryce 2.1 and you have a penhold racket capable of producing powerful drives from all distances.



Defence II Proline

 
Defence II Proline      US  $104.99
    CAN  $  N/A
Regular Price $121.97

Ideal for the player who places a premium on spin and control, we call this combination the "Hammer and Chisel".

Tackiness Chop is our 'spinniest' rubber. The 1.5mm sponge will offer excellent control for steady backhand underspin "chisel" returns. Tackiness Drive is an excellent control oriented spin rubber. When the opportunity arises, the 1.9mm sponge will provide enough power to "hammer" home the winner. The Defence-II has a slightly larger head than average giving you more surface area and offers great touch. Note: No substitution of rubber or blade allowed on Proline rackets.




Firehand-CS Proline

 
Firehand-CS Proline      US  $89.99
    CAN  $  N/A
Regular Price $98.73

This combo is ideal for the close-to-the-table penhold pips-out attacker. The Firehand-CS Penhold blade is part of our Super Core system and is extremely fast. Its tremendous speed combined with its hard feel allow for quick and explosive attacks. The Raystorm is part of our High Tension rubber series that has tension built-in to the rubber sheet. Raystorm offers exceptional control and great spin for a pips-out rubber. The High Tension technology adds the speed. The racket sheet on the backside makes it tournament legal.



Grubba  Pro Proline

 
Grubba Pro Proline      US  $89.99
    CAN  $  N/A
Regular Price $94.97

Have you heard of Danny Seemiller? Five time U.S. National Champion! If not, there is still a pretty good chance that you are using a Seemiller type grip. In his prime, Seemiller was top 20 in the world and he made the “basement” grip famous.

Now referred to as the Seemiller grip, this style of play is executed by using only one side of the racket for both forehand and backhand strokes. Seemiller chose Sriver for his forehand play and still trusts in it today. Sriver has been in the Butterfly line since the 1960’s and is great for all strokes. If your grip and style are similar to this "one side only approach", the ideal rubber for the opposite side of the racket is an anti-spin rubber. Anti is designed to take all of the spin off of the ball. It is excellent for blocking, returning serves and great for changing the pace. Seemiller chooses the Super Anti-Special which features an extremely “dead” sponge layer for even more control and the Grubba Pro blade due to its excellent control. Note: No substitution of rubber or blade allowed on Proline rackets.
