Bread & Butter Loco 16mm Hybrid verdict
The shape most Loco buyers should start with. It keeps the long handle and most of the drive output while widening the face enough to make off-center contact survivable.
CRBN TruFoam Genesis 1 verdict
The elongated Genesis is the heaviest, most leveraged paddle in the TruFoam line. Full foam replaces the honeycomb core entirely, which is why it holds a plush, long-dwell feel at a 14 mm thickness that would normally play stiff.
