Spent a lot of time researching, reading reviews, and talking with fellow pickleballers and demo-ing paddles.... I am so glad Holbrook had a deal on this paddle. TBH, I would've purchased another paddle without the reduced price on the Pro Power E, but for $150 it is an amazing paddle (and best at this price point hands down). First games with it were an easy transition from my previous paddles (Pro Kennex and Selkirk). The paddle is fantastic. I opted for the 16mm because I generate enough power and wanted to keep/improve touch/control. I am very interested in seeing what the 14 mm would be like in comparison. This carbon paddle face produces awesome spin and the "E" adds a little size and a bit larger sweet spot. (I demoed a Selkirk Lux Air Control and I would choose this paddle over it every time). Some people have complained about a white grip... no biggie to me because the grip feels amazing. I am very, very happy with this paddle, and at this price, you absolutely should buy it if considering. Holbrook you have a new ambassador for your paddles and brand!
