What the evidence says
All of the playing evidence on this page comes from 1 of 22 consumer items analyzed, an owner comment published in December 2023.[4] That owner said the paddle started out really responsive and gave nice spin.[4] The same owner reported that it started to go dead after about 3 months.[4] Along with that change, the sound turned to more of a thud and control fell away, with the ball going everywhere except where the owner aimed it.[4] No second source confirms or contradicts these reports, so it is not yet possible to say where sources agree or disagree.[4]
More on player fit
Players who need the same feel and control over months of regular play should weigh that owner's report of the paddle going dead and losing control after about 3 months.[4]
