Verdicts

Six Zero Black Diamond Power 16

Six Zero finally built a power paddle. Pop 88 and power 90 at $180 undercut every flagship drive paddle in the database, and the DBD forgiveness DNA mostly survives the switch.

Vatic Pro V7 Pro 16

The standard-shape sibling to the Prism Flash. Same face, wider body — a better first thermoformed paddle for players who miss the middle.
