One of the best paddles I have ever used and you can’t beat the price point!

Bought Pro-power pro 14mm and using for 2 months. So far so amazing. As good as my previous the banned Joola Ben gen3.
For next I’d love to try both Aero X 14mm and 16mm.

Like the other reviews say, this is a fantastic paddle.
I tried it because Holbrook were the only ones pushing hand speed as a design problem they wanted to solve. It delivers. This paddle is blindingly quick at the net. I added weight on the shoulders to make it feel more capable right up to my fingers against the grip. Without an edge guard, every bit of this paddle is controllable and useful in a crazy net battle.
The surface is amazing for spin, adds accuracy (I have the Aero carbon face model I’m comparing it with), helps achieve the shortest drop down the face of the net, and then blow the ball off the court in the next point. The well considered design of this paddle has created something exciting to use and is a credit to these guys.

My husband and I love our Holbrook paddles! Been using them for about 4 months and love the weight, blend of control and power and especially the ability to use a lot of spin. Plus the price is great.
Took us to a win last weekend!

Great style for my pickle ball son. He is obsessed with all things Holbrook!!

Insanely awesome paddle! I’ve been playing with it now for 2 weeks and I absolutely love it! This was my first time buying a paddle from Holbrook and it has not disappointed. I was playing with a CRBN X 3 for the past year and since I started playing with this paddle it will be my new go to. From the look to the power to the control this paddle is great. I compete in 4.0 plus and I haven’t had any issues with this paddle in competition. Highly recommend this paddle to anyone trying to elevate their game!

I’ve been playing pickleball for nearly a year and have tried a variety of paddles from big brands like Gearbox, Selkirk, and Joola. Over time, I’ve experimented with different paddles to suit specific needs—for example, using a control paddle on high-energy days for precision and a more powerful paddle when I’m feeling less energetic.

What drew me to the Holbrook Aero X Pro was its innovative Dynamic Weight Technology, which eliminates the need for lead tape. This not only enhances performance but also keeps the paddle looking clean and sleek.

I prefer lightweight paddles under 8 oz, and the Aero X Pro strikes the perfect balance for me. Its weight, combined with its well-thought-out design, makes it a versatile and comfortable option for players seeking both control and power.

However, the one downside was that the website didn’t provide a warning about potential duty taxes for Canadian buyers. I was hit with a surprise $110 CAD duty fee from UPS upon delivery. Had I known this in advance, I likely would have reconsidered my purchase.

While the paddle itself is excellent, I’d recommend Holbrook to improve transparency about additional costs for international customers.

Bought (2) Holbrook paddles, the Pro - Aero X and the Pro - Power Pro E and really like them both. Paddles are forgiving, yet pack great power, so great all-court paddles. Holbrook has excellent customer service as well - great all-around experience on my purchases.

Headband feels good, and you can barely feel it's there.

Tested this paddle out at the Picklr Scottsdale. My first swing, I thought, "Whoa, that was weird." I then instantly fell in love with the way it played! This is by far the best feeling paddle I have ever played with! My son loved it too, so I got us both one!

Such a deal for the price. Love the innovation of the Aero but this is still an amazing paddle. Great feel and touch for drops and the ball flies off the face when needed. Huge sweet spot to benefit anyone!

Amazing feel, spin and power. Hate to say this, but they could charge more for this paddle. Out performs the most expensive and popular paddles out there. I will be surprised if they can make anything better than this one!

Nice paddle. Better control than my first paddle.
I would recommend to others.

I have tried all of the upper series paddles from Holbrook and this is definitely my favorite one! Great control w/ decent power!

One of the best all around paddles!! 4.6 DUPR player. Definitely helped take my game to the next level.
