Description
The TB5 Alpha FL Blade has a slightly larger blade size (the same as the Harimoto Innerforce blade series) and is perfect for beginners, giving them a larger contact surface and expanding the sweet spot. As a result, progressing players will have a bigger margin of error, which can be beneficial during the early stages of development. However, intermediate players can also take advantage of this blade's properties, most notably the combination of soft feel with destructive power just waiting to be unleashed. Players that are just getting started could benefit from the feel and control of Butterfly Sapphira rubber. For those that have progressed a bit more and seek more speed and spin, the Sriver family of rubber would be a logical progression. Butterfly Rozena and Roundell rubber model lines provide controllable power and high levels of spin to players transitioning to their first High Tension rubber. To increase the grip on this blade, you can add Soft Grip Tape, providing grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice to extend the longevity of your racket is adding side tape to the blade, protecting the wood in the event it is hit on the table.
