- Organic Control Assist Fiber (CAF): Utilizes organic vegetable-derived fibers to dampen harsh vibrations while maintaining an organic, soft touch.

- Accessible Transition Profile: Perfectly tuned for players upgrading from entry-level rackets who want extra stability without losing tactile feedback.
Butterfly Outerforce CAF harmonizes pure wood feeling with composite precision, providing controlled offensive power for tactical table tennis players.
How does Butterfly Outerforce CAF compare to Butterfly Outerforce ALC?
Compared to the stiffer and more explosive Butterfly Outerforce ALC, the CAF version possesses a noticeably softer vibration characteristic (9.1 vs 10.4) and slightly lower rebound speed. Outerforce CAF offers far greater dwell time and touch forgiveness, making it easier to control blocks and slow opening loops from our full range of table tennis blades.
What player level is Butterfly Outerforce CAF recommended for?
Outerforce CAF is particularly suited for ambitious intermediate players, developing juniors, or tactical all-rounders who want the reliability and forgiveness of an all-wood blade combined with the structural uniformness of modern synthetic fibers.
Which rubber combinations work best with Outerforce CAF?
Due to its flexible dwell and forgiving core, Outerforce CAF pairs exceptionally well with spin-oriented ping pong rubbers like Butterfly Rozena or Glayzer, offering immense control and arched trajectories without feeling excessively stiff.
