Customers like the spin of the tennis racket. They say that it has perfect spin, extra spin, and a softer face. They also say that the surface is great for adding spin to ground strokes.

Customers are mixed about the length of the pickleball paddle. Some mention that the extra length is unbelievable, the max length for a quality paddle, and a nice long pickle ball paddle, while others say that it's narrow, the sweet spot is small, and not forgiving. The length didn't really make a difference, and the paddle is long rather than squared, which lessens the time of contact on the face.

"...I prefer the smaller. Also, because of its added length, the sweet spot is very small. Consequently, it does not forgive mis-hits...." Read more

"Long paddle, good control, no more than normal mishits. Sends serve hard." Read more
