Pickleball Effect considers it one of the most complete offensive paddles on the market: power and volley speed are among the highest measured (57.1 and 37.3 mph, firepower 87), the feel is stiff with clear feedback and the foam core holds its performance longer than previous-generation power paddles. It is heavy (8.4 oz measured) and takes more effort in fast exchanges at the net; spin is average.
