This is my second Aero Pro T Metallic because I'm absolutely in love with this paddle. I purchased my first when it was released originally and you know how sometimes there is a break in period or a learning curve with a new paddle. Well with the Aero TM there was none. Everything about this paddle is perfect. The hybrid shape, the face produces soo much spin it's rediculous. The extra length is perfect for two handed backhands and speed ups and edge less design is a bonus. I did add some tungsten tape at the throat to increase the sweet spot but honestly very few miss hits. I purchased my second Aero TM just to use for league and tournaments. There is something to be said for dealing with a smaller family owned business customer service is great
I definitely recommend this paddle to all.
I have used this paddle for a couple weeks and so far I really like the feel of it and the grit. It arrived with a small scuff on it and customer service was very helpful.
The metal face helps add a little extra to overhands. that paired with the grit from the the paddle face give its a little extra touch. takes a bit to get used to use to but once you get the feel its a lot of fun to use.
This paddle does everything you need it to. Control, power, spin. It's hardly a drop off from the power pro.
Great for the player just starting to get serious.
I love the 16mm version of this. Solid power and control. I can drop it in and also put zips on my drives. Didn't take getting used to, just felt solid immediately.
The paddle feels light and quick at the net. Solid surface grip for spin.
Probably could use some lead tape to widen the sweet spot, as it's not as stable as others in its stock form.
Absolutely love my Aero T. I haven't played with too many other paddles before this and felt like I was in a rut. I heard great things about Holbrook Paddles, did my research and settled on the Aero- T Elongated 14mm. I know that I have been missing out in these past years not trying other paddles. This paddle has great pop and for a power paddle, great control. It did take me a match or two, but that's the same any time you give something new a shot!
I wouldn't hesitate to make recommend this to anyone looking for an awesome paddle and great price to go with it.
Picked up the Pro - Aero Metallic T 16mm racket, it took just a few games to get the feel of it, after using the Pro - Power Pro for over a year. I really love this new paddle!!!
The Holbrook paddles namely Pro Aero Elongated, Pro Power Pro & Pro Mav Pro exceeded my expectation!
These are well designed, balanced and worthy of praise, The paddles are by far the most stable and does not need a-lot of calibrating. “Play and Go”
Cheers to the founders behind this revolutionary paddles.
Holbrook is very responsive and dedicated to customer satisfaction. The one problem I had was corrected immediately and with pleasant communication. Thanks Holbrook!
Ok, maybe that is an exaggeration, but I’m immediately obsessed with this paddle! So much more control and power than my previous paddle. I’m hitting shots that have always been challenging for me. And it’s adorable! If you’re thinking about it…give it a try! I love it!!
The only reason for not giving it a 5 star review is that I wish it came in different colors not just black.
Paddle is light so it is fast on hands battle. Low swing and twist weight. Good control and fast swing on drives. I added 4-5 in of tungsten tape from the bottom throat area and now it feels perfect. Weighted around 8.2-8.4g.
I love the pop that it gives when driving the ball. I ordered the 14 mm and you can definitely tell the ball bounces off the face more compared to my 16 mm paddle. I have to get used to it when it comes to my drops and resets. Overall, I'm very happy with it. Waiting on the Holbrook edge guard tape.
This paddle is fantastic! It offers quick handling and delivers amazing spin and control. I love it!
Love my new paddle. I’ve been looking for a paddle to give me more control and this paddle gives me exactly what I was looking for. It’s light and has a great handle and grip.
I was not happy with the way the paddle arrived, especially with not having the extra protective option when purchasing through paypal. But with the paddle itself, it is a very impressive and versatile paddle! I am completely in love with the 16mm Holbrook metallic! I would recommend it!!
Still own 2 beautiful, broken in, paddles.. thanks for making life miserable for my opponents..
I love the feel of this Pro 14mm paddle when you hit the ball… It has good control, but plenty of pop! Very happy with my purchase and with the Holbrook company!
Holbrook is such a nice customer friendly company. I had ordered a paddle that I decided was not for me (14mm) after some friends suggested I should stick with a 16mm. Holbrook graciously sent a return label for free shipping back and sent the exchange paddle. That’s customer service! Thank you Holbrook.
They are tacky, good for indoor and outdoor
Transitioning to this paddle from my cheap paddle has made a big difference. It took a little bit to get used to the weight difference. My wrist wasn’t conditioned for the slightest weight change, but a few games in and I adjusted. It is actually light and I built up strength. It helped with power and accuracy to build confidence as an advancing beginner. Also, pink is my favorite color so it inadvertently coordinates with most of my clothes- Irrelevant side benefit.
I was a little disappointed in this paddle. It feels clunky on power strokes and doesn't provide much of a pop. It does feel good on the control shots and drops, but was just hoping for a little more power when needed and it doesn't seem to provide that. I wish I had demo'd a different model before committing to purchase.
Looks great, and I love the material that's cool and very comfortable to play in or sport around.
Aww! Comfort and snug! The moment the shoes are on your feet, you feel you're ready to compete! Light, yet well constructed and grippy bottom. Looks good, too!
