Measured performance.

Where this paddle sits against the 514 we track. We describe the band it lands in rather than publishing the underlying lab figures — those are licensed, and the bands are the part we can share.

ControlMediumMiddle of the catalog

Touch and placement — worked out from power, swing weight and the maker's play-style label, not a bench reading of its own.

ForgivenessVery highTop fifth of the catalog

How stable the head stays on an off-centre hit.

Hand speedMediumMiddle of the catalog

How quickly it moves in a hands battle at the kitchen.

Spin and power aren't shown here: this paddle hasn't been through the bench those two bands come from, and 156 of the 514 haven't. Nothing above is invented — where a row is worked out rather than measured, its note says so.

Where to go from here.

Same play style, a different trade-off — one steps up the measured performance, one protects your wallet.
