Butterfly Sriver Inverted Rubber

A long-loved classic inverted rubber known for high elasticity and high friction

Released in 1967, this is a high-elasticity, high-friction inverted rubber. Its ratings of Speed 38, Spin 23, and Arc 23 are on the lower side among the rubbers we carry. With relatively modest bounce, it tends to make shots easy to control.
