Verdicts
ONIX Evoke Premier Pro
Onix finally thermoformed the Evoke. It hits noticeably harder than the standard Premier while keeping the wide standard shape that made the original forgiving.
Volair Mach 1 Forza 16
The Forza is the sensible hybrid: nothing extreme, everything solid. It is the paddle to hand someone moving off a big-box starter without overwhelming them.
