Excellent paddle: I have tried other paddles claiming to be the best, but nothing comes close to my 16mm FS Tour so I am sticking with it when I need a new paddle. Nice sweet spot, great grip and control.

F/S Tour Dynasty 14mm: Was a ranked junior tennis player that competed in tournaments in LA, MS, AR and AL .. That was 48 years ago, now 66, my wife got involed with pickleball during father's day 2025. Now I am hooked. Decided on buying a Franklin FS Dynasty Tour 14mm, on 7/22/25 where we play at Pickle N Pins, Metairie, LA .. Added weight to the 4 corners and and tourna grip, could not be happier with the paddle

Love this paddle.: Just received today. I immediately got it a game. Absolutely love this paddle. I had borrowed one on Saturday, and ordered one immediately. Great deal as well.

Solid All-Court paddle: The Tempo 14 paddle is a nice all around paddle. Like most All-Court paddles, there isn't any one area inherently exceptional about the paddle but it does what you need it to do, offering good feel and predictability from anywhere on the court. The handle on the Tempo 14 is shorter than the Dynasty model (which has a longer handle and can fit a two-handed backhand) and is ideal for a one-handed grip. The handle also features a baseball-style grip with deep grooves which

Fantastic paddle & great value: I’ve been looking for the right paddle for a long time and this is it. I have been switching between playing with 16mm paddles - Apes Pulse V, Joola Hyperion C2 CFS, Honolulu J3k Pro, Gearbox Pro, Thrive Azul, and 11six24. Bought my daughter a Paddletek ALW for Christmas and I like this one better. This 14mm has been a game changer! Control has improved, more than enough power, and very good pop. Handle width is awesome - no need for overwrap, and have had no

Very solid.: FS Tour Dynasty 16mm is awesome. Ive tried most of the top brands.Its the only paddle available that is over 8.7 oz and doesnt need lead tape. Great for advanced tennis players who like a heavier feeling paddle. The entire paddle face hits solid. No torque on mishits- even balls hit on the edge! Spin is 2200 rpm which is top tier. Also the only manufacturer that provides a full cover that also covers the grip instead of cheap cover that only covers the head.
