VINSGUIRPickleball Paddle, 16MM Carbon Fiber Pickleball Paddle with Longer Handle, Elongated Paddle with Grit Face/Raw Carbon Fiber Surface/Thermoformed, Spin & Control Paddles for Advancer

Was everything I had hoped for as I am a beginner to this sport but played plenty of tennis, ping pong and racketball and this sport is like the combo of all 3. And I do play to win and didn’t want to spend a ton for my first racket. It plays well, I have enough grip for spins and feels solid as I use it. Highly recommend for the price point.

This paddle is great at applying spin to the ball thanks to the grit on both sides of the paddle. The sweet spot is quite small but adding the lead tape that was sent with the paddle and putting it under the two bottom corners increases it. The handle of the paddle is asymmetrical with the grip having a bump on a side of the paddle. This makes it so that when your hand is gripping it, your knuckles are raised. While this in theory may help with girp, it ends up making it pretty slick. This causes it to slip in my hands every so often throughout playing.

Amazing product, this product has so much spin and control and speed, i would recommend this product, customer service is amazing

I’ve been playing with this paddle most of the days I go out to the court. I have found it to be my favorite paddle lately. I’m not the best player in the world. I am very intermediate to beginner experience. The one thing that impresses me most with this paddle is its weight, it only weighs about 8 ounces, but has a ton of power for something so light. I found that I can control the ball spin with the amount of texture that’s on the surface of the paddle. In my opinion it’s a great value of money compared to some of the large name brands.

It’s not worth the price for the paddle you get. It’s a decent paddle, but mten has one for the same price that is two times better

I was worried about the sound level of this paddle, but it stayed within the low to medimum range. Plays well, good balance and grip. Seems to be more of a power than control paddle. I like the carbon fiber they used, lots of grip.

A relatively new player, I got this to replace a beginner paddle and notice the difference immediately. The carbon surface is gritty, making spin easy and the honeycomb construction makes it easy to control speed and distance. In all, a good next level paddle for the player looking to compete more effectively.

This is a pretty solid feeling paddle and a bit heavier than some others probably due to the extra length. I don't need or use two hands to swing this thing as hard as possible but suppose those who do can get both hands around it. The surface seems fairly gritty giving it the extra spin one needs and has a pretty good sweet spot from what I can tell. Is it worth the amount being asked for I don't know because I really can't tell how it is made and what is in it but it seems well constructed. And it is an average looking paddle with nothing too special going on.
