Didn't find a thread about this ball, so decided to open new one... Yesterday bought a couple of boxes, and immediatly begin playing with them... I was in awe, just awesome ball, it's very round, hard, and also feels light compared to Butterfly G40+ or DHS D40+ balls, actually it's hardness and roundness IMO close to Nittaku Premium, but Nittaku Premium is feels very heavy compared to other plastic balls, so compared to it S40+ is lite like a feather... So in play S40+ have great and predictable bounce, it's spins quite nice (IMO better than DHS D40+), the only problem for me was that it drops sooner than DHS D40+ when it have backspin on it, so it gets some time to get used to, so I at first maked topspin over the ball, but it just a matter of practice.... So overall for me Butterfly S40+ is by far best plastic ball I ever played, I'm overjoyed!
P.S. There might be one more minus to this ball, the first S40+ ball that I played cracked after 10 minutes of training, first time hit it with the edge of the racket and it cracked loudly... but then had a few edge of the racket hits on the second S40+ ball and it's fine, so maybe I was just unlucky with the first one...
