Butterfly TB5 Alpha FL Pro-Line with Sriver EL

The TB5 Alpha will offer excellent feel and control and good speed on your attacking shots. The classic Sriver top sheet with a slightly softer sponge layer. The softer sponge will 'hold' the ball longer offering additional control. Sriver was the dominant rubber for more than 25 years. A great all-round attacking rubber still today! PLEASE NOTE: Ultimately, most players find a blade that best suits their own individual and unique style of play and will use that blade for many years. If properly cared for, the blade will last years. However, the rubber will wear out over time and need to be replaced. When that day comes, DO NOT THROW THIS RACKET AWAY! The glue that is used to assemble Butterfly Pro-Line rackets will allow you to easily remove the old rubber. You can have the rubber professionally installed or you can even do it yourself! Replace with the same rubber or upgrade to one that offers more speed, or more spin, or both! Did You Know?
