Butterfly Petr Korbel Pro-Line Table Tennis Racket

Limba outer plies make this blade a natural for steady, aggressive topspin. Tenergy 05 on the forehand handles every kind of topspin attack near the table or at mid-distance, while Challenger Attack on the backhand is a balanced pips-out sheet for dependable all-round counter-hitting.
