Verdicts

Vatic Pro Oni 16

Vatic's answer to the $250 foam paddles at roughly half the price. It gives up some polish in finish quality, not in scored performance.

Volair Mach 2 Forza 16

Volair's second-gen Forza adds foam walls without adding swing weight past 115. Power 88 and stability 88 make it a genuine tournament option.
