Butterfly Nakama S-8 Racket

Constructed of 5 layers of wood, the Butterfly Nakama S8 Table Tennis Racket has an all-wood blade, and that composition gives a softer feel at impact: it will flex slightly and 'hold' the ball a bit longer than blades made with a reinforcing material such as carbon fibre.

Great Speed And Better Spin For Advanced Play | Nakama Series | Recommended For Advanced Level Ping Pong Play

Its Flextra rubber is a terrific intermediate level rubber with a bit more spin than speed, and the softer sponge layer of Flextra will also 'hold' the ball longer, which makes it ideal for learning the basics.
