Bread & Butter Loco 2 Elongated 16mm

What the evidence says

Creators agree the Loco 2 Elongated is a power paddle, with strong pace on drives and serves and plenty of pop off the face.^{[2, 3]} Spin draws the most consistent praise: one creator measured serve spin averaging 2,448 RPM on the elongated shape and rated it elite, and another reported about 150 RPM more than the original Loco.^{[1, 2, 3, 6]} Two creators say the new surface kept its texture through heavy testing.^{[2, 3]} The feel is stiff and hollow, though one reviewer finds it a little softer than the original.^{[1, 2, 6]} Creators split on hand speed. One calls it quick and stable in hands battles, while another says the 119 swing weight adds plow-through but costs some quickness in fast exchanges.^{[2, 3]} Stability reads as decent for the shape, with a 6.22 twist weight, a big sweet spot and a slightly steadier response on off-center hits than most elongated paddles.^{[2, 3]}

More on player fit

Players whose mechanics are still developing may get unexpected pop-ups and find resets and midcourt defense harder until they adapt.^[3] Players who want a soft, dense feel are steered elsewhere.^{[1, 6]}
