We've established that Butterfly prints the text "special thickness" on their pro-issued rubber sheets. They do not print this text on the commercial packaging on the same label box. It is probably just nothing though.

What do you know about the "special thickness (tokuatsu)" text on the label of the pro-issued Butterfly rubber packages that indicates that it isn't special? See my prior post if this reference doesn't make sense.

I would like to buy a few of this racket. Anyone got a link for where I can purchase? Seems like a lot of people on this thread should know.

Just curious how you think this works - someone at Butterfly goes and measures each individual piece from a batch of thousands to identify the few anomalies that meets the players standard and sets them off to the side? Then, for fun and just to troll the conspiracy theorists, prints a separate...

No, I wasn't basing that comment on just this match, more about the recent months in general, but that match made the thought pop back into my head. But yes, great run for Jang this tournament.

We'll have to wait a few more rounds to find out...there's still at least person in the draw who uses a totally-not-modified-wood-and-carbon-proportions blade in the draw... Maybe he is a one and done, beating Harimoto and Hugo isn't bad, but he also recently was beaten by Duda with scores less...

Do we know that he is using Zyre on the Viscaria SALC?

Not the introduction that Joola was hoping for. Good call on the commentator saying that Dima has the edge in tight situations.

In that case, much earlier. songdavid's comment is what I would say too.

Probably not until 2650+ USATT at the minimum. However, that assumes that the player has already gotten to their level with a "non-modern" style, if someone is starting their journey in 2026 it is recommend to instill the "modern game" fundamentals to increase their rate of progress and chance...

Rozena and Glayzer are decent for cheap

Predictions on Abdulwahhab vs Sora?

Not to downplay JWJ but I wonder how much that broken hand has set back Alexis

Most likely a limited release and maybe in Korea only. Wonder which commercial blade this is that he was using before they decided to change the branding and sell it, because this couldn't have been a custom thing he got that was structurally different from any commercial version blade right...

Review from a 2500 USATT level player. He concludes that he prefers it on the BH which is not a common perspective I've seen so far, but an interesting one.
