Vatic Pro Prism Carbon Fiber 16mm - Foam Injected Walls - Includes Paddle Cover

Thought I’d leave a review seeing how some people have experienced getting sent used paddles. I received a new one with the grip plastic wrapped and with the surface of the paddle looking brand new. Have played with it and love it!

As my first enthusiast paddle, an upgrade from a cheap fiberglass set we got from our friend, I think Vatic paddles go beyond expectations for under $100. It plays as good if not better than $200+ paddles I’ve tried side by side. The carbon face texture is the same as some of the best on the market. Most importantly great performance for someone trying to improve their game. It gives much better control with baseline drives. Absorbs volleys and provides nice touch around the net. The injected foam does a nice job dampening vibration while still keeping the pop. This is not a power paddle, but rather moderate power and good control. The light weight helps with maneuvering quickly around the net. Recently I added 2 lead weight strips to the sides of the paddle and boom....now has more power to serves and ground strokes and kick to my volleys.

The spin and control is exceptional on this racket. Perfect for some body new to the sport and those who prefers spin & control over power in their play.

I came to Pickleball recently at 54 after playing competitive tennis when I was in my teens and 20's. I instantly loved it. I started with a Head Extreme Pro at $94 (bargain on Amazon), which is a great paddle with a very poppy feel, decent grit and spin, I was quite happy with it. After reading endless raving reviews about this value leader Vatic Prism Pro, I had to try it. In comparison, the Vatic feels very muted, with alot more dwell time and control. The sound alone is dramatically different, softer and quieter which is characteristic of how it plays. I was initially shocked at how much softer the Vatic played, but after 10-15 minutes with it, the magic started to happen. The level of control and spin are amazing. You'll have to put a bit more effort into your ground strokes and drives, but this is balanced with better ability to place your dinks and control your shorter game. I added a Head overgrip (although the oem grip is superb) and am playing with some weights to fine tune. Overall, I'm super impressed with the Vatic and have settled in for a long haul with it. If you like control this does it well. To upgrade this paddle will take you into the $250+ range and even then, you'll be into the zone of very small improvements per dollar.
