This is Six Zero’s new flagship paddle the Black Opal, and while it is definitely a performance paddle, I think it’s going to be very polarizing.

This is a definitive upgrade to the Six Zero DBD, and it’s a better paddle in the context of today’s market. It’s more powerful and lively. While I don’t think it will replace the B&B Loco Elongated as my main paddle, I’m definitely keeping it as the hybrid in my bag. I’ll whip it out every few games, especially when I want a powerful paddle that can finish points quickly.
