The blade introduces CNF (cellulose nanofibre), made from wood pulp refined down to the nano scale. Two CNF plies with five wood plies give low vibration and high reaction: it hits like a carbon blade on attacking strokes yet keeps the soft touch of wood on softer and medium shots.
- Handle: flared, concave in the centre, the most popular shape
- Blade: Revoldia CNF, 5 wood plies + 2 Cellulose Nanofibre (CNF) plies; reaction 11.7, vibration 9.5
- Forehand: Impartial XS, 2.1 mm sponge: hardness 30; speed 70, spin 70, arc 70
- Backhand: Dignics 09C, 2.1 mm sponge: hardness 44; speed 79, spin 96, arc 96
- Impartial XS brings new levels of speed and spin to a pips-out rubber
- Dignics 09C has a sticky top sheet for sharp topspins and a feeling of holding the ball at contact; it is the spinniest rubber Butterfly makes
- Assembled with a glue that lets a worn rubber peel off cleanly, so the blade can be re-covered with the same sheet or a faster or spinnier one, by hand or professionally
