The Honolulu J6CR Elongated is a lightweight paddle that brings surprising hand speed and mid-tier power to the court. It feels stable during fast hands battles and generates plenty of spin for drives and drops, while remaining responsive to custom weight tuning. While the stock balance feels a bit light on groundstrokes and the stiff feel takes some getting used to, it gives you a nice blend of offense and control. It is a strong fit for intermediate players wanting an elongated shape that won’t slow them down at the net.
