Great paddle. Amazing price. I love the balance and the pop. For the price you could buy both the Alpha and Omega. I know some who have.
Not around enough! Hopefully will play Wednesday. Thanks for the review ☺️
The sweet spot is the entire surface, very balanced with lots of power.
The Alpha really is a great paddle. I've had two days of competitive playing and it took me almost no time to get used to it. It handles excellent. It dinks well, plays down the line well, serves to where you want, AND is very powerful too. That's the tough part getting both. You will not be disappointed. Oh, it scoops up those ones at your feet with zero bounce better than any paddle I've ever played with. Either that, or I got really good overnight. Not.
I love this paddle. Few paddles I’ve tested have as much easily accessible power and pop, even fewer retain strong control for resets and dinks. The alpha is a true power paddle that doesn’t sacrifice control. Power, control, and the gnarly spin this paddles offers makes it a true weapon for all skill levels. Constructive subjective criticism: I would prefer the handle to be more of an octagon and less logo on the paddle face. My paddle weighed in at 8.4 ounces leaving little room to add weight. This wasn’t an issue for me but may be for others. Also the paddle feels a little bulkier than other 16mm paddles. Being said, the alpha has replaced the Paddletek bantam tko-c as my main and I highly recommend it.
so FUN to play with this new paddle! Plenty of Power and a 'balanced' feel.
