Highly Maneuverable and Solid: Simply put, this paddle is an outstanding offering from Wilson. It's a elongated, poly-core sleeper that's still relevant in the current marketplace and surely hasn't received the attention it deserves. I still find it to be one of the finest paddles available, bar none. Look around and you'll see that this shape in an elongated is here to stay. I also find the weight perfect; it's highly, highly maneuverable at the kitchen and super flickable when chasing down
Buy this paddle!: Fantastic paddle! Better than the other well known brands ive played with. Great grip, nice control, and the power is AMAZING!
Blaze Tour 16 is my Go To Paddle: I couldn't be happier with my Blaze Tour 16 paddle. I'm a 4+ level and play about 10+ hours per week. I've tried a number of different paddle brands and am now a confirmed Wilson Blaze customer. It has a good sweet spot, nice finish for spins and soft game, as well as plenty of power without the need to add any lead tape for weight. The handle is longer for those with a 2-handed backhand, but also works very well for 1-handers like me. I typically put a Wilson w
I wanted to love this: Great for control in the kitchen (sinks, resets) but lacks power, especially from the back line. Not great spin. Not for what I was told would be an elite paddle. Disappointed. Played tennis for 15 years, now a 4.5 PB player. I really thought I’d love this paddle but I just don’t. My gen 3 Perseus was amazing! But can’t play with it anymore :( in search of what’s next.
Amazing grip: It takes a bit to get used to since the head is smaller. the grip is absolutely incredible. I feel much more control on this pádel over other brands. I highly recommend it
Selkirk Convert: I did a personal experiment between Wilson and Selkirk, and Wilson won! I am a 4-4.5 pickleball player in my 60s and play 2-3 hours of pickleball 3-5 days per week. I'm a former tennis player and generate enough power that I like to have the 16mm width for more control of my soft game. I have been a Selkirk fan for the last 4 years, but wanted to try something new since my Selkirk Invikta Vanguard 2.0 kept deteriorating at the top corners of the paddle. So I purchased the Wilson
Excellent control: Love the face grit and handle is perfect. Excellent feel of ball on face.
Fantastic power and control!: I am a professional player and am blown away by the new Wilson Blaze. Power when you need it, control when the play slows down at the kitchen. Great job, Wilson!
Great Paddle: Very comfortable, spin friendly paddle. Very nice control and feel. My most favorite paddle so far, also feels very solid.
The perfect balance of power and control: This is a fantastic paddle for the competitive player. As a D1 college tennis player who played with Wilson racquets and now competitive pickleball player, this brings together the best of power, control and touch to execute a variety of shots. It has a sleek look and the elongated length and cushioned grip make it easy to play with and control without sacrificing power. Of all the paddles I’ve tried, this is by far and away the best in terms of performa
