A solid all-court paddle that brings good power and plenty of spin, though the handle feels quite short.

Pros

  • Puts plenty of spin on drives and drops
  • Solid feel that absorbs vibrations well on off-center hits

  • Durable build with an improved handle shape

Cons

  • Handle is very short for two-handed shots
  • Feel is stiffer compared to earlier models
  • Does not do much to help you build out a soft game
  • Carries a higher price tag

If you are looking for an offensive boost without giving up too much control, the CRBN 2X Widebody is worth a serious look. It delivers a solid blend of power and high spin alongside a generous sweet spot that helps during fast exchanges. Just keep in mind that the feel is a bit stiffer than older models and the handle is notably short, so it might take some getting used to if you prefer a two-handed backhand.
