Butterfly Innershield Layer ZLF Pro-Line Racket

Soft and supple like a catcher's mitt, the Innershield Layer ZLF is built on ZL fibre (ZLF), which is strong, elastic and offers a large sweet spot with a softer feel than Carbon. The Innerforce technology allows you to 'hold' the ball longer on the racket, and the larger blade head offers more surface area, ideal for retrieving balls from anywhere on the court.

Tenergy 64 is the fastest of the Tenergy series rubbers, allowing you to quickly go on the offense, and it keeps a low trajectory whether attacking or defending. Feint Long II is designed to slow down your opponent's attack: its tall and narrow pimple structure reverses the spin of your opponents' shot, which will keep them on their toes when determining the degree of spin on the ball.

PLEASE NOTE: most players eventually find the blade that best suits their own individual and unique style of play, and then use it for many years – a properly cared for blade will last years. The rubber, however, wears out over time and has to be replaced.

When that day comes, DO NOT THROW THIS RACKET AWAY! Butterfly Pro-Line rackets are assembled with a glue that lets you remove the old rubber easily, and the new one can be professionally installed or you can even do it yourself: replace with the same rubber or upgrade to one that offers more speed, or more spin, or both!
