Butterfly Kong Linghui Euro

The Butterfly Kong Linghui Euro is a high-performance table tennis blade that caters to both aggressive playstyles and precise control. With a commendable speed rating of 8.1 and control rating of 7.5, it stands out as an excellent choice for players who thrive on offensive tactics while maintaining the ability to react effectively to their opponent’s shots. Constructed from 7 plies, this blade features an outer layer of yellow aningre wood paired with a center layer of padauk wood, offering a balanced blend of speed and touch.

Weighing in at a medium weight of 89g, the Kong Linghui Euro strikes an ideal balance that many players find comfortable for extended play. Its thickness and solidity contribute to its relatively stiff feel, rated at 5.9, which provides a substantial amount of feedback and power during strikes.
