A Choice of Sizes

The Holbrook Power Pro paddle comes in three different sizes – 12mm, 14mm, and 16mm – ensuring that players can choose the paddle that best suits their playing style.

For my testing, I opted for the 16mm paddle. Let's delve into the differences between these sizes.

• 12mm Paddle: This is the lightest of the three options and offers the most pop. It's perfect for players who value speed and power in their game.
• 14mm Paddle: The 14mm paddle strikes a balance between size and weight. It combines power, strength, and durability, making it a versatile choice for players who want a bit of everything.
• 16mm Paddle: The thickest of the lot, the 16mm paddle still exhibits remarkable power and pop. However, its thickness also provides a controlled feel and a forgiving sweet spot. This makes it an ideal choice for players who prioritize strength and aggressive shots.

Unleash the Power

If you're a player who craves more power in your shots, the Holbrook Power Pro is the ultimate paddle for you.

I tend to be more of an aggressive player, so the 16mm paddle allows me to get lots of power on my shots while providing great stability.

Every strike feels like a cannonball, and the pop is unmistakable. It's like the paddle was reading my mind, delivering exactly the power I needed for each shot.

Controlled Precision

But it's not all about power. The Holbrook Power Pro also excels in controlled shots. When you initiate a precise, controlled shot, you can feel the paddle's grit grabbing the ball with precision.

It's as if it's in tune with your intentions, responding with pinpoint accuracy. The result is a crisp, clean feeling to your shots that is deeply satisfying.

This paddle equips you with the confidence to make fast-action selections and execute them flawlessly.

Durability and Comfort

One of the most impressive aspects of the Holbrook Power Pro is its durability. Unlike some paddles that begin to show signs of wear and splinter within a week of intense training, this paddle stands strong, game after game.

You can rely on it to perform consistently, match after match.

The comfortable grip further enhanced the overall playing experience. I tend to have sweaty hands, so being able to grip the paddle well is very important to me.
