Verdicts
Diadem Edge 18K V2
Diadem's 18K weave measures at the top end for spin without the harsh feedback most thermoformed elongated paddles carry. It is the balanced option in a category full of specialists.
Six Zero Quartz Control
A control build in the Double Black Diamond tradition, only lighter and quicker. Twist weight and sweet spot are the standouts; power is deliberately mid-pack.
