Butterfly Ovtcharov Innerforce ALC FL + Dignics 09C + Dignics 05 Table Tennis Racket

Joao Monteiro's own racket: an Ovtcharov Innerforce ALC blade with Dignics 09C on the forehand and Dignics 05 on the backhand.

• Blade: 5 wood plies + 2 Arylate/Carbon (ALC), Butterfly's hugely popular technology joining carbon's power to Arylate's vibration damping; reaction 11.7, vibration 10.5
• Flared handle, concave in the centre, the most popular shape
• Forehand: Dignics 09C, 2.1 mm sponge; its sticky top sheet gives sharp topspin and the most spin of any Butterfly rubber; speed 79, spin 96, arc 96, hardness 44
• Backhand: Dignics 05, 2.1 mm sponge; Spring Sponge X gives more power, holds the ball longer and lasts longer than the original Spring Sponge; speed 86, spin 85, arc 88, hardness 40
• Delivered fully assembled; Butterfly's Pro-Line glue lets worn rubber be peeled off easily, so the blade can be kept and fitted with fresh rubber
