Orthodox DX

The Butterfly Orthodox DX is a hardbat rubber that brings classic table tennis traditions to the modern game. With its pimples-out, no-sponge construction, this short pips rubber delivers the unique spin and trajectory characteristics of early table tennis styles, offering a genuine challenge to players accustomed to conventional inverted sponge rubbers.

Orthodox DX requires a more open racket angle and playing style than contemporary rubbers like Sriver or Tenergy 05, but this difference becomes a tactical advantage. Your opponent may find the ball response unpredictable if they’re unfamiliar with pimples-out play, making it a clever choice for experienced players seeking variety in their game.

This rubber is officially approved as one of 12 hardbat racket coverings recognised by table tennis governing bodies, making it legitimate for hardbat tournaments and competitive play. The Orthodox DX excels at both offensive and defensive shots, delivering excellent control and reliability across a range of playing styles.

Specifications:

• Surface: Pimples-Out Without Sponge

The Orthodox DX pairs effectively with traditional Butterfly hardbat blades such as Andrzej Grubba, Diode V, Boll Control, Maze Magic, and XStar IV. Butterfly Free Chack table tennis glue is recommended when assembling this rubber to your blade.
