 Good for beginners Oct 03, 2008
For the price, these are great quality, very lightweight, Okay spin, and pretty good control. Weather doesn't affect them too bad but to they get dinged up pretty easy when dropped. Overall pretty good :)
Solid paddle Aug 04, 2008
I bought two of these a while ago and they've held up pretty well. Yes, they're 1.5 mm sponges, but it's amazing what you can do with these well crafted paddles. Solid feel and hasn't come apart with more than 5 months of use. I had some very expensive 2.0mm sponge paddles that fell to pieces within a few months. Butterfly paddles are quality and this comes at an excellent price.

 Better than a standard cheapo paddle Jul 17, 2008
Nothing to write home about, but fun for household and non-competitive use. I wouldn't enter a tournament with it though. If you go into the purchase with that expectation, you'll be happy. The handle is quite comfortable and worth the 10 or so dollars over the bargain basement models.

Good Starter Bat Jun 24, 2008
This is a great starter bat for recreational TT/ Ping Pong. Good design of the handle allows proper grip and improve your play. Definitely recommended for the serious amateurs over the flat no-padding paddles that sell cheaply.
Butterfly is the best there is!

Need to improve? Naifu is for you! Apr 09, 2008
I started playing a year ago and I've been playing with a Stiga Ultimate which has a 2.2 mm sponge. I wanted to work more on technique because I had been relying on spin too much. With the 2.2 mm sponge I was sending the ball long when I started to try looping so I figured I'd try the Naifu with the 1.5 mm sponge. It is MUCH easier to control the ball. I can give nice forehand or backhand looping stroke and keep the ball on the table. It's also easier to return a smash with the Naifu because of the thin sponge and lack of strong spin. The downside is that the spin and speed I was relying on in my offensive game to force my opponent to make a mistake is almost non-existent with the Naifu. I played with it for about 50 games and when I switched back to the 2.2 mm sponge, my game was A LOT better. Bottom line - use the Naifu to work on technique but keep your ego in check - you won't win too many matches against an experienced opponent but it definitely will help you to improve your game.
