Player Tested
We drill and play with every paddle for at least two weeks before we write our review. Plus, we share the paddle with all levels of players to form an accurate representation of its performance.
Unbiased
We are not affiliated with any paddle brand. Our opinions are not influenced by anything other than how we thought they performed. We're brutally honest and will tell you the good and the bad.
