Butterfly Super Anti (Anti-spin)

Rubber description:

The Butterfly Super Anti is a distinguished anti-spin rubber that excels in offering unique tactics for defensive players. Renowned for its ability to disrupt the rhythm of an opponent’s game, this rubber delivers a soft but controlled bounce that creates challenges for those attempting to establish their spin-oriented strokes. With a speed rating of just 4, it is on the slower side, allowing users to expertly play deceptive shots that confuse their adversaries. The rubber’s low tackiness (0) enhances its anti-spin characteristics, making it especially effective in neutralizing aggressive topspin attacks.

Weighing in at a modest 2.8 (on a scale of light to heavy), the Super Anti is designed for players who require a lightweight option that does not compromise on control. This feature is particularly beneficial for executing counterattacks and defensive strokes with precision. Players have noted its durability, scoring a solid 7.1, making it a long-lasting choice for competitive play. The soft sponge hardness of 1.6 contributes to its deadened feel, allowing for excellent ball control, particularly when returning heavy spins.

While the Super Anti excels at returning serves, blocking, and pushing, players seeking alternatives may consider similar anti-spin rubbers like the Yasaka Anti Power or Butterfly’s Neo Anti, both offering their own distinctive features. However, many players appreciate the Super Anti for its consistency and touch, ensuring a reliable performance throughout matches. Whether used in combination with more traditional rubbers or alone, the Butterfly Super Anti provides a strategic edge to any defensive player.

Recent Reviews

#1 — December 2018

As the name suggests, Butterfly Super Anti is an anti-spin rubber, which has the limitations inherent to this type of rubber.

Despite its soft sponge, it can return heavy attacks reasonably well - at least the opponent’s first heavy stroke. Highly skilled players may overcome this by executing several fast attacking shots in succession, forcing you out of position. However, such play requires a high level of skill.

Combining Butterfly Super Anti with a tacky backside rubber allows you to take advantage of the contrast between heavy spin and dead balls. Twiddling the racket between the two surfaces would be particularly effective.

Overall, Butterfly Super Anti is a good anti-spin rubber of high quality.

Please Note:

The sponge of this rubber is exceptionally soft.
