Customer review for Butterfly Sriver FX

External Review for Butterfly Sriver FX on September 23, 2012

This was a rubber made for speed glue, which of course is now banned. It's spin and speed is just ok; this rubber is now for control. It is average at best for spinny serves. It's great for a beginner looking to develop their shots; I am using it to work on my backhand, which is much weaker than my forehand. It allows you to develop the correct technique without worrying about missing. It is light and soft and completely non-tacky. It plays well close to the table, further back it requires some effort.

That being said, in max thickness it can produce some pretty fast backhand flicks. Not as fast my Vega Europe, but still enough to win the point. It feels a little dead sometimes, but it gets the job done. Soon I'll be able to 'graduate' from my sriver fx once my technique is sorted. :)
