I purchased a 16mm Pro Force 5G paddle a few months back and absolutely love it. I had debated between the 14mm and the 16mm at the time, but went with the control. I have been leveling up my game considerably over the last few months and have been looking at maybe getting a 2nd change of pace power paddle and when I saw the Black Friday deals from Crush it was a no-brainer! I ordered the Black Pro in the 14mm and got it yesterday and went right to the courts... and it is the bomb! Great power, control and feel, its a looks to be a great paddle. I want to thank you to Richelle at Crush for helping me with options. For all looking at buying a new paddle consider that there are a lot of options that have "Power Pop" but if they breakdown in a few months is it really worth. I don't know if it is the "New Paddle Smell" but I could feel the difference in weight and pop between my two paddles from Crush. I plan on using both depending on who I am playing and what style of play is needed. I strongly suggest getting a paddle from Crush, you will not be disappointed.
