New Butterfly PowerSonge Rubbers

Thursday, September 14, 2006

PowerSponge is the revolutionary new rubber from BUTTERFLY. The rubber is produced using technology that meets the requirements of the solvent glue ban proposed by the ITTF and scheduled to take effect from 1st September 2008. Extensive work by the Research & Development Department of Tamasu Butterfly has culminated in rubber being developed that produces the high level of spin and speed required in modern day table tennis, while virtually requiring no changes to present day techniques. It is modern day table tennis without the need to use speed glue!

What is "PowerSponge"?
The first generation of these rubbers is produced following a specific and researched procedure. The achieved effect lasts similar to the average life of freshly glued rubber, about three to four months. In terms of acoustic feedback, spin and speed, PowerSponge rubbers are difficult to distinguish from fresh glued rubbers. Now, the player can forget about the laborious procedure of fresh gluing and thus more time can be spent playing, without losing any effect that speed glue once provided.
