Description
Decisive hits with high speed and spin – that’s what the Butterfly Ovtcharov Expert racket was designed for. It uses Lagnus rubbers (2.0 mm sponge thickness) approved by the ITTF for competition, allowing the experienced player to master all aspects of the modern attacking game. For those who already have some experience in table tennis and have an offensive style of play, the Butterfly Ovtcharov Expert is the perfect choice.
The racket was developed in collaboration with the famous German athlete Dmytro Ovtcharov of Ukrainian origin (born in Kyiv), who became the bronze medalist of the 2012 Olympic Games and the 2020 Olympic Games in singles. The second Olympic medalist in the history of German table tennis. Father - Mikhail Ovtcharov, USSR champion in table tennis in 1982 in singles (80 appearances for the USSR national team).

Rubber: Lagnus rubber, 2 mm thick sponge. This rubber is ITTF approved for competition, has an extremely sticky surface, which provides a special playing sensation - "speed feeling". For the Ovtcharov series of rackets we use a new, improved version of Lagnus, which has an even better grip and sticky surface. The rubber has a medium sponge hardness and, together with good grip, provides additional hitting power and maximum spin (100/100) for aggressive top-spin play. The rubber is very sticky, when you first take it out of the package it reaches its optimal playing characteristics after about 5 minutes of play. The excellent overall impression makes the Lagnus rubber comparable to full-fledged professional rubbers used by our leading athletes. .
