This is my favourite blade by far.
My playing style is a close-to-table two-wing attacker and this soft controllable Arylate blade gives me tons of confidence to generate spin in combination with placement. Nice large sweetspot.
Quality of the blade is excellent and durability is great, since I possess and use this blade for many many years.

Strength of this blade are looping and flicking close-to-table. Short play is not a problem either. At mid-distance the Arylate kicks in, so in that respect it's a bit unlineair. It's not a high-speed blade but the selection of rubber has it's influence on the overall speed. Personally I play with the Donic Bluefire JP rubbers but I've been told this frame also pairs nicely with Tenergy.

I possess a FL handle, which nicely fits into my hands, which are relatively small.

Unfortunately it has been discontinued a while ago (2010). However you can still find TB Sparks in the FS section for a reasonable price.
Butterfly Bazelart supposed to be exact the same blade as Spark.

If you want a blade like this but with a little more power, UpsidedownCarl on the forum has advised a TB ZLF. It is a lot like the TB Spark but faster and the Zylon is not quite as soft as the Arylate.

Both Keyshot and Innerforce AL are also a little bit harder and faster with simmilar feeling comparing to spark.TB AlC/Spirit are even faster.

Conclusion: This blade is for close-to-table loopers who prefer control above speed. Good blade for players who have passed the beginners stage and are ready to develop their looping skills.

Best rubber for my FH, great speed, great spin... I can play for middle and long distance without no problem

Good rubber, good speed, very controllable. I use this in my BH and I like for playing it for middle distance

A really good blade, I like the feeling of this blade

Offensive rubber that is speedy but still controllable. Good for close-to-table and medium distance play.
Throw seems a little low. Easy to generate lift on backspin.
Good FH rubber

The Butterfly Viscaria is a very good blade. It is not too fast or too hard, it has a good control and it's very durable. For some people it is a bit expensive but it is worth the money.

A nice spinny rubber, a bit slower than Acuda S1. Good for backhand and close to the table play. Not as good for away from the table play, because it is quite soft and gives a low arc.

This blade was my 2nd blade. It has very good control and is highly durable. It is not too hard and is not amazingly quick but its still a relatively fast blade compared to some. For some reason it has a large sweetspot. I would definately recommend this blade to the intermediate standard player who has lots of potential.

I have had the pleasure to play on this table at my club and it's a superb table. The surface is matte to reduce glare and smooth but not slippery.
The bounce is superb and speed is top notch, the ball rly grips the table surface when you hit a topspin shot producing great speed of the bounce.

The table it self comes per-assembled and it can be moved around and set up by a single person with ease.

A great rubber from Donic. I use it with Timo Boll Forte blade in max thickness, and it is great. It has a decent amount of control, and good spin. It is easy to begin the attack, amazing for looping. I won't say it is better or worse than Tenergy, because they are different rubbers, which feel very different. Acuda S1T is better in the short game, but it doesn't give the arc of the Tenergy. Also you can buy 2 sheets of Acuda at the price of a Tenergy.

I have searched for the perfect backhand rubber for me and after using many rubbers of stiga,yasaka,adidas,ltk,friendship,butterfly,xiom but not was perfect suited for me. After seeing a poster of my favorite player Maze i wanted to give it a try. It felt fantastic, it give me the perfect touch to counter loop with backhand and the backhand topspin was amazing. I use this rubber with Tenergy 05 FX on forehand and a customized AnimusBlade from Italy with seven layers.

It is a very good rubber. I use it on my backhand because of it's excellent control and feeling. It is good for improving someones backhand.
It is also good for blocking close and mid table. It generates a lot of spin which is good especially for services and topspin. It's spin
is also good for chops. It's weakness is that it is not durable and its quite costly.

It is a blade that balances all the aspects of an attacking player attributes. It is very fast
but with good control. It is consistent enough and also good for attacking from mid and far table. It's
weight is comfortable for switching between backhand and forehand. It is also good for control. Its only
disadvantage is that it is very expensive,, though it gives you value for your money. I'd advise it for offensive players. Its combination
is generally good with most rubbers.

I would rate this rubber very highly because of the good amount of spin that it produces, It
is also generally good for service variation. The rubber is also very handy in control and you don't have to worry
about its durability. It is also very affordable. Its only minimal deficiency is blocking. Thank you DHS

Very good blade with excellent control , soft touches and a grate top spin.Very good for lifting backspin balls and chopping top spins.Grate on blocks ,active blocks, short push and smashes.On Flicks work perfect, is good blade on any kind of shots with large sweet spot! its a blade that you deserve to have it!!

The seamless ball is much more durable then the seamed ball. It's ofc slower and have less spin then the old ball but compared to other plastic balls it's the same. I played with balls from the first batch that come out of the factory that had some issues with roundness but I hear later batches is much better.

Like all seamed plastic balls the Stiga plays slower, with less spin and cracks just as easily as the rest.
Normal we would loose about a quarter to half our balls during a 3-4h training session and this is ofc. unacceptable.

The Acuda S2 is a soft springy tensor rubber that is well suited for the backhand.
The rubber is non tacky with good grip. The only downside I head with it is that it would crack around the edges easily due to hitting the table during play.

It's easy to play slow spiny shots due to the soft sponge but be weary not to hit through the sponge as you will loose control.
