Butterfly RDJ CS-1 Penhold Table Tennis Racket

A Chinese penhold racket that gives novices a sound base while they learn the basic strokes. Spryer rubber brings good speed, spin and control whatever the style, and its 1.7 mm sponge keeps rallies a little slower than a thicker one would.

• Blade: 5 wood plies
• Handle: Chinese penhold, shorter and generally conical
• Rubber on one side only, as is traditional for Chinese penhold, since forehand and backhand are both played with the same face; the reverse is painted black
• ITTF approved
• The rubber is glued on permanently, to stay on the blade for the racket's whole life
