Verdicts

Selkirk SLK Halo XL Control

A $100 raw-carbon elongated with a 5.75 in handle — the cheapest credible paddle in the database for a two-handed backhand player who wants real spin.

Vulcan V1100 16

A T700 raw-carbon elongated paddle that sells for about a quarter of its MSRP. On measured specs it competes with paddles at triple the street price.
