GAMMA
The GAMMA Obsidian Raw Graphite paddle receives overwhelming praise from most reviewers for its excellent balance of power and control, lightweight design, and responsive feel. However, a minority of users report insufficient power generation and inconsistencies between advertised and actual specifications, suggesting the paddle may not suit all playing styles or expectations.

Gamma Obsidian Raw Graphite Pickleball Paddle 16: So far I love it!! Seems to be quicker than my older Shard but still has good 'touch!' I'm still adjusting with lead tape and added a Gamma over grip. Looks great too!!

Inaccurate description by both PBC & Gamma: PBC’s narrative description says the paddle’s length is 16 5/8” (5/8” is just OVER an inch, for the math-phobic). It is in fact 16 3/8”, just UNDER 1/2”. Reach matters. Handle length is listed at 5.75” but it’s really 5.5”. Weight is listed at 7.8oz, mine came in at 7.5oz. At least this inaccuracy went to my advantage. But the paddle has good, not great, spin. Solid feel. At 13mm, still more a control paddle than a power paddle. Build qualit

Gamma Obsidian: This is my 3rd advanced paddle, I’m a 3.75 player . I love it. It’s light, responsive, performs well with power shots and backspin dinks. It’s not truly elongated, but the longer handle makes it so.

Gamma Obsidian 16mm Love It: Very Impressed! Love the longer handle 5 3/4"... The thin grip size 4 1/8" gives me more maneuverability...I was playing with an 8.4 oz Joola and switching to this 7.8 oz has given me more speed and quicker reaction, and didn't lose any power!

GAMMA Obsidian 13: This paddle is billed as a 'power' paddle, but is anything but. I had to work way too hard to generate any kind of pace. Paddle is way too light with little to no 'spring' off the face. Certainly not in the class of other graphite paddles. Save your money. ***PBC Response*** Thanks for taking the time to leave a review!
