I've had this paddle for about 3 weeks now and highly recommend it. I changed from the Simone Jardim 14 mm to 16 mm and am happy with that decision as the paddle seems to have a bit more control and "give," but at the same time has great power. The weight might be a little too much for some players (8oz.) and I thought that might be the case for me as I am a petite player (5'3" - 127 lbs) but it is going to be ok I think.(More weight training!). Definitely has the power I want, has the longer handle for 2 handed backhand, seems to absorb the ball a bit better to prevent pops, has great touch for dinking and resets, and provides the right touch for me for lobs. I go through a lot of paddles and this one is the best I know of right now.Hope this review helps you make a good decision.
