Nice paddle — Pros: Finally had a chance to use this paddle. I switch hands when playing , so I like the long handle. I thought the elongated face would bother me, once playing it actually helped my game. I am hitting firm crisp shots. — Cons: None

Gearbox GBX: This paddle feels light in hand and gives good control face after getting used to switching from my GX6. This GBX embedded carbon I like for doubles play because it is softer at the sweet spot than my power GX6, which I use and is ideal for strong driving in singles. The GBX is my first try at carbon after 7 years of using G11 and GX6, other than a brief use of friends carbon. I believe this paddle will perform as well as any other carbon paddle I have tried for control play an
