“This is an excellent paddle--I own two of these and haven't had an issue playing 2-3 times a week for six months. I've broken other paddles in the past, but so far these have remained solid and my favorites. The mix of power and spin (and control) is extraordinary (94/95/93) and the grip is by far the best I've played with--it's elongated, but maintains a strong grip even when sweating. Very highly recommended!”
“My niece received this paddle as a gift, and once I tried it, I had to buy on for myself! It is very responsive, the ball pops effortlessly off the paddle and I have greater control. My Selkirk gives better spin, but my game has evolved to wanting power and control over spin. Less effort to hit the ball from the back line on the court, and great pop for dinks at the net.”
“Paddle is just what I was hoping for with exception of the handle. Barely fits in my hand and feels awkward. I don’t even have big hands. Was going to gift to my father but I think he’d prefer his off brand cheap paddle simply be up the handle is uncomfortably short.”
“This pickleball paddle is light, grippy, and hits well. The grip on the handle feels high quality and paddle is light to swing but doesn’t feel cheap. With the carbon grip surface it’s easy to put spin on the ball even for a beginner, and it makes a nice sound when it contacts the ball.I also have tried the 14mm Joola Vision paddle that is a little bit cheaper than this paddle (16mm Swift) and they seem pretty similar. Other than the price the only difference I have seen is that it seems to have a little bit more grip on the surface, and it also has Ben John’s signature on it.”
“The paddle has good control and power, has good speed, and is balanced well. I do not doubt that this paddle has made me a better player. Compared to my old paddle, this offers much more forgiveness in my shots. There was certainly an adjustment in getting used to the weight of this paddle, it feels much heavier than my old one.”
“If you are starting to take the game seriously, JOOLA's are hard to go wrong with when you are ready to upgrade your gear.This paddle is no exception. I'm not a good player, but friends who play used this one and liked it a lot. THey may end up getting their own.”
