Verdicts
CRBN TruFoam Genesis 3
The hybrid sits between the other two Genesis shapes on every measured axis. If you cannot decide between reach and forgiveness, this is the shape that refuses to make you choose.
Vatic Pro Oni 16
Vatic's answer to the $250 foam paddles at roughly half the price. It gives up some polish in finish quality, not in measured performance.
