I've only played a few times. No tennis experience, but some decent ping pong experience.
This paddle gives a lot of spin. I don't have to worry about hitting too hard, it just works. Handle is long enough for two hands if needed. Played maybe 12 hours across 3 separate days with it. Face has a very generous sweet spot that covers most all the face. I let some other folks use it and they preferred it over their current paddles. Not sure how much better a paddle could be, but with the discount, this paddle is easily the best bang for your buck at less than $100.
Awesome! I have the Hurache control 16mm and this is just another weapon to my arsenal.
Extremely versatile for an elongated. Not the most powerful paddle but has plenty enough juice and makes up for it in the control and speed departments. Lacked a little stability out of the box but nothing a little weight at 3 and 9 couldn’t solve.
Super soft paddle with great dwell time on the ball. Power is very good
The Huarache X Alpha Pro Power Paddle is a balanced power paddle that gives strong drives and serves while improving control compared to more aggressive models.
It has:
* Good power, but not overly stiff or uncontrollable
* Better touch for dinks and resets than typical power paddles
* Decent spin and a forgiving sweet spot
*Affordable
Downside: not stable without the weights
Best for: intermediate to advanced players who want power + control in one paddle.
