Verdicts
Friday Pickleball Aura Pro Hybrid 16mm
Friday's Gen 4 full-foam Aura Pro in the hybrid shape pairs a power-focused response with a quick published 112 swing weight. The published 6.4 twist weight is moderate, so it gives up some stability on paper to heavier all-court hybrids.
Holbrook Pickleball Crush Control 16
Holbrook's first genuinely competitive control paddle. The hybrid shape and 110 swing weight make it an easy switch from a standard build without losing kitchen-line speed.
