Butterfly Sriver G2 FX
Rubber description:
This rubber is classified as a tensor and serves as a versatile, all-round attacking option. It is characterized by its medium-soft feel and a distinctively low throw angle, making it well-suited for players who prioritize consistency and accuracy over raw, explosive power. While it functions effectively as an all-purpose tool, it is particularly praised for its performance in the backhand and its ability to facilitate a controlled, tactical game.
Playing Characteristics
- Spin and Grip: It features strong mechanical grip, allowing for spinny loops and effective service execution. It excels in spin-oriented play rather than pure speed.
- Speed and Power: The rubber provides moderate pace; while it is faster than traditional non-tensor rubbers, it does not reach the high-octane speed of modern high-tension alternatives. It is best paired with faster, stiffer blades to compensate for its moderate output.
- Control and Touch: Highly regarded for its accuracy and touch, the rubber performs reliably across all aspects of the game, including blocking, pushing, flicking, and service reception.
- Physical Properties: It is noted for its lightweight construction, which helps maintain a manageable setup weight. Users report that thinner sponge options provide enhanced feedback and touch compared to the maximum thickness versions.

It took me more than a year to discover my fondness for this rubber, rating it a 9/10 for my backhand. I believe the perfect rubber does not exist, hence the 10/10 rating remains elusive.
This rubber excels in control and excels in receiving serves, blocking, pushing, chopping, flicking, looping, and driving. In fact, it performs all these actions quite well. It is not particularly fast, which translates to better control and accuracy. I consider it a control rubber, and for my current game, I deem it to be the best backhand rubber in the world.

This is the first rubber that I used on an ALL+ J-pen for about 2 months. The rubber is good for looping and spins. It has a little less speed and spin than Tenergy, but Tenergy might be too fast for beginners.

Great product for overall play. Good spin, only a bit less than Tenergy, but at half the price. It should be combined with a fast blade like TBS or ALC.
