Butterfly Timo Boll Spark

Adjusted and formatted text:**

The blade has very good control. It is best suited if partnered with long pimpled rubber on one side.

Very good blade.

Excellent control and good speed.

A pleasure to play with.

The worst blade I have ever used. Slow with no feeling and way too thin. Maybe good for a pips play but no topspin player won’t be overpowered using this unless they play a player under 1000 USATT rated.

The blade is extremely flexible, making it great for executing loops at mid-distance. The straight handle is a unique feature, providing a comfortable and well-rounded grip. Additionally, the blade is commendably thin.

In terms of control, the blade offers excellent precision and responsiveness.

One of the best blades I have played with—it now appears discontinued by Butterfly. I started with the Keyshot and switched to the Biside. Butterfly recommended this blade as a replacement for the Biside. It is a flexible blade well-suited for my all-around change of spin game with pips on my backhand (I spin the bat to loop backhand; I almost never hit with the pips on the FH).

The craftsmanship is top-flight, and I like the soft feel for both chopping from deep or spinning off my backhand side. The control is very good, and this blade has lasted a long time (at least 10 sheets of Rubber, and I change now every 6 months or so).

This blade offers very good dwell time, and it flexes even at moderate shots. It provides a very good feel for the short game and makes it easy for lifting backspin balls. Due to its flexibility, it provides a second kick, so it is a little bit nonlinear during faster shots. However, it is a matter of habit to adjust the strokes.

It is good for beginners and for players who prefer to play around the middle zone, mostly loops. It is not as good for the off-the-bounce game.
