The Butterfly Maze Magic Blade is fantastic all-wood blade suited for players that have offensive strategies and shots in mind. This 5-ply composition retains the characteristics of touch and control for heavy spin and hard attacks. The Maze Magic has a soft feel, making net play exquisite. Players that are just getting started could benefit from the feel and control of Butterfly Sapphira rubber. For those that have progressed a bit more and seek more speed and spin, the Sriver family of rubber would be a logical progression. Players seeking more offensive power should consider Butterfly Rozena and Roundell rubber model lines, as they provide controllable power and high levels of spin to players transitioning to their first High Tension rubber. To add more grip to this blade, you can get the Soft Grip Tape, providing grip and comfort to the racket handle. Another great choice to extend the longevity of your racket is adding side tape to the blade, protecting the wood in the event it is hit on the table.
