Butterfly Wakaba

Only for beginners.

I discovered this rubber over 15 years ago. As a beginner, I had a great experience using it. It taught me how to initiate a loop attack, primarily because it has almost no grip! You really have to work hard with it. I am keeping it as my no-grip racket.

Bad choice, amigo! It feels like playing with an anti-rubber on hand.

This was the first rubber I had on my first paddle (Yuki-An). However, after about six months, the rubber lost its spin. Overall, this is a poor-quality rubber that becomes ineffective after a very short period of time.
