Customer review for Butterfly Sriver

External Review for Butterfly Sriver on November 5, 2013

Back in a day, in early 90s when i was starting out this was the rubber to have.

Living in a small town i had no access to any other rubber but this. Sriver was my TT family basically. There was no internet to buy from China :).

For a 4th grader this was as cool as it gonna get in TT. When i would get a new sheet from my parents i thought i was the king of the world!!! Well since we were not the richest family i was king of the world maybe once per year or so :).

Many years have passed since 90s and i dont see myself using Sriver anymore but this rubber still holds special place in my heart.

Pros:
Rubber has no weak areas of play. Solid all around rubber at this time of age.

Cons:
Bizarrely expensive 25$-30$ per sheet for a dinosaur of a rubber.

I would not recommend this rubber to anybody anymore. Many say it is one of the best beginners rubbers but i think there are many better (yasaka Zap Bio, Palio CJ 8000 Bio and so on) for the fraction of the price. I do understand that "new" rubbers like Zap or CJ have better performance then Sriver but so do "new" beginners then beginners in my time.

Have fun playing TT and be happy :).
