Butterfly Table Tennis Question and Answer

BladeMaze Off
ForehandTenergy 05 Max
BackhandTenergy 05 Max

Question: I play in Austria, in the third league.  I love the Maze Off when playing topspin but for me it’s too fast when blocking or at the short-game. I need a blade that is still fast when playing topspin but helps me not to block the ball over the table. My coach thinks the Primorac Off- would be too slow. So I thought about the Korbel Off or the Gionis Off.  I need a blade Which is fast in attacking but has a lot of control, what would you recommend?

Coach Jun Gao, Ask The ExpertsAnswer: Hi Johannes,

I would recommend you either change your blade to Viscaria or change to a softer sponge like Tenergy 64 for your backhand.

Best of luck!
