Hurricane Pro 14mm
A surprisingly plush 14mm paddle that gives you good pop and spin, though it plays a bit light against heavy drives.
Pros
- Plush feel that plays softer than many other 14mm paddles
- Quick hands at the net with plenty of maneuverability
- Good spin potential for hitting aggressive angles and drops
- Forgiving standard shape with a nice big sweet spot
Cons
- Gets pushed around a bit by heavy balls right out of the box
- Needs some added lead tape to help with plow-through
- Priced a bit higher than basic entry-level options

%If you are an intermediate player stepping up from a pure control paddle, the Pikkl Hurricane Pro Widebody makes a lot of sense for adding some offensive pop without losing touch. It has a surprisingly plush feel for a thinner core and delivers plenty of spin to keep your drives and drops working for you. You will probably want to add a bit of lead tape to help with stability against heavier shots, but the standard shape gives you a pretty forgiving sweet spot overall. It is a solid pick if you want a nice blend of hand speed and manageable power.
