I ’ ve not tried virtually every one of the new paddles — the models and thicknesses. I ’ m a 4. 0 tournament player, and for me the Mayhem( 14mm) is the perfect blend of power and control, which is what I search for. The 16mm versions of all the new paddles are a tad soft for me. And the thinner versions available in some models just don ’ t have the touch that I require for my 3rds& resets. This is a great paddle!

For me the paddle seems to have a very good balance on control and power. Compared to my other paddles, the ball seems to stay on the paddle longer for better control of your shots. Paddle also seems to generate enough power for my serves and quick drives. I had added some lead tape around the four/five and seven/eight positions and added another wrap around the handle to increase the circumference. Paddle feels and plays great!

5 Sweater Weather
The Franklin Dynasty12 FeatherWeight is my lightest and most favorite paddle to date. As an Advanced Intermediate Women in early 60s I love the longer handle for a two handed backhand, and the elongated head for a larger sweet spot. As it ’s the lightest weight it feels less like a club and more like an extension of my arm. The light weight is providing head speed at the kitchen for inevitably fire fights while allowing me the opportunity to control the kitchen line by slowing the rally down. The only issue right now? I can ’ t find it in the Sky Blue one to buy.

5 Snoltor
I ’ ve been using the Radius for 13 months. 16mm thickness is ideal for the control I want, and I can get enough power when needed for my game. Light weight and low swing weight are good for tennis elbow- I believe. Produced great spin on my backhand, I believe surface is finally aging a bit, not quite as much spin after one year, but still decent. Great match for my style of game: short game, placement shots, and occasional power put away overheads.

Got mine went to the court and didn ’ t loose a match. 7 for 7!! Great control.

5 Scott D.
I love this paddle. It's super light so it makes it easy during a hands battle. It has a lot of pop for a thin paddle and has great control for drinking. I highly recommend this paddle. I could n't put the ball away with my previous paddle, but I have no problems with this Franklin paddle.

5 Sweater Weather
The Franklin Dynasty12 FeatherWeight is my lightest and most favorite paddle to date. As an Advanced Intermediate Women in early 60s I love the longer handle for a two handed backhand, and the elongated head for a larger sweet spot. As it ’s the lightest weight it feels less like a club and more like an extension of my arm. The light weight is providing head speed at the kitchen for inevitably fire fights while allowing me the opportunity to control the kitchen line by slowing the rally down. The only issue right now? I can ’ t find it in the Sky Blue one to buy.

5 SkyView
This paddle is much better than the 1st Paddle that I bought. 1. All shots feel solid with this Joola. Any shots outside my 1st Paddle ’s sweet spot seemed to die. 2. The grip on this Joola feels really good to hold. My 1st Paddle ’s grip just did not feel right. My 1st purchased Paddle had good reviews and cost$ 90 but just did not perform well. The Joola is much more expensive but is night and day better than the 1st Paddle that I bought.

I ’ m a small woman and the texture on this paddle helps me get more spin and it ’s also lightweight to keep me injury free as I m not very strong to handle heavier paddles

I love this paddle. It is my third one over the years. Hope they never stop making it! Selkirk has been a great organization to work with when issues arise. It has more grit than before and improves my spin game.

This is my first paddle with a 16MM core and Carbon Fiber face and my first impressions of this paddle are very positive. The stability is outstanding and the control and spin are excellent as well. I 'm very pleased with the performance and I really like the paddle shape, handle length, and grip. My only issue is with the white grip because it gets discolored from dirt and sweat. Overall I highly recommend this paddle.

5 S. Bartlett
Love this paddle. I 've tried many paddles for months at a time each( Vanguard Selkirks, Flight Ovation etc). With this paddle, there is no such thing as a miss- hit. It just does n't happen. This thing feels lux. Amazing sweet spot. The 16mm gives it perfect control and the core gives it power when you want it( pretty rare IMO to find a paddle that rides the line of doing both of these jobs really well instead of only one and the other suffering). The CF face makes the spin on this thing incredible. I use a lot of spin in my game and this is perfect for me. The only downside is the weight. Not just that it is heavy( 8. 5oz is a lot for a stock paddle), but that it is so top heavy specifically. Feels like all the weight is on the top ridge of the paddle. This also makes it so that I do n't want to add lead on the throat which is what I usually would do because I do n't want to increase the weight even more. I 'm used to a lighter paddle so this is obviously a preference thing, if you are used to heavier paddles than this will be a seamless transition. But man, it really takes some getting used to for hands- battles. I 'm going to keep it for now because the pros outweigh the only con. I put an overgrip on mine and it is perfect.

5 M. Del Vecchio
No paddle is going to make or break your game, but this one feels really good. The face grips the ball and it feels like it imparts more spin. It doesn ’ t feel as heavy as the actual weight. The initial over grip needs to be replaced within a couple of hours. As expressed in a previous review it becomes stained and mine started to slip. Since I planned to customize the grip anyway this doesn ’ t present a deal breaker.

5 V. Phan
I feel in love with the CRBN paddle, because of the recent ban. I decided to try out the CFS 16mm. The first time I play with it, it ’s very forgiving. I Love it. It ’s has great control, good power and enough spin. It ’s a little heavy, but the weight help me control my over swing. It ’s has been 3 weeks, become my favorite paddle. Definitely improve my game overall. Joola keep up the good work.

5 A. Davis
I love this paddle. Great touch, loads of power and my favorite, the ability to generate spin is better then any other paddle I 've used.

I ’ ve had this paddle for at least 3 years. It has held up well and I am an Intermediate player that plays 3- 4 times a week. It is also lightweight, which is what I like in a paddle. I am going to upgrade to one of the Selkirk fiberglass paddles because of recent tennis elbow issues and I would like more control/power. Good quality though for beginner/intermediate players.

Sturdy, nice size; good grip. Only downside was that Dick's put the sticker price on the handle and it ripped off some of the grip.

I just got this paddle about a week ago and so far, had nothing but great results. First off, the handle feels great in the hand, far better than any other paddle I have held. Weight distribution is spot on and does not lack in power at all. The paddle feels far more solid which I can feel in every hit. Lastly, the vibration control is amazing. I did n't think much about vibration control with my other paddles, but I can feel the difference with this one. I highly recommend this paddle!

Drinks struck on the edge of the Malice are very solid. Topspin, sidespin and underspin shots have the movement that I crave. Shots hit the sweet spot are divine. The carbon fiber frame makes this paddle Superior to any that have used. Very happy. Worth every dime. Throw in the cover
