Feint Long II (Butterfly)

The effect of long pimpled rubbers is maximized when the pimples are easily bent and deformed. The thinner and taller the pimples, the more effective they are. The aspect ratio (the length of the pimple divided by the width of its top) of FEINT LONG II has reached the limits of the ITTF rule.

the butterfly feint II long pips rubber is a rubber that is very easy to controll for defenders and choppers. produces very good wobble on serve returns but this rubber can be best used with close to table play, when you step away from the table it is a lot more difficult to put in the right effect and more easy for opponents to read the ball and thus finish it off, also better to stay at the table because then you can hit with the feint II and that is also nearly impossible further away from the table.
Overall a good disturbing rubber for close to table play with good controll and variation

Butterfly Feint II is a epitome of good long pips rubber. It is extremely tricky, and it is extremely suitable for choppers, defensive players, or those old people who just use long pips and block lol. It can create killer spin. It reverses spin extremely well, and it sends the ball back slowly and kind of floating, so it is really hard to return a shot created by this rubber.

I had a friend who used this on his backhand really well. He was a chopper, and his chops with the Feint II were virtually impossible to loop back because of the spin.

If you want this kind of effect, try it out!
I highly recommend for any kind of players previously mentioned!
