CRBN1 Rocks! — Pros: This is my 2nd CRBN1. Decided to try the elongated paddle. I must say it has increased my reach on backhands and overheads. I’m a fan. — Cons: None

Awesome paddle! — Pros: I’ve only been playing for 3 weeks and have tried a dozen different paddles. I enjoy putting a lot of spin on my shots and CRBN paddles have very high spin ratings. Originally purchased the CRBN2 16mm but felt the power was lacking an opted for the elongated 14mm. I would definitely recommend any CRBN paddle, if you play outdoors I would suggest the 14mm instead of the 16mm. Have not tried the 1x models yet. — Cons: Not as much pop as similar paddles, but a perfect blend of power/control.

Perfect Balance — Pros: And is a perfect balance of speed and power. It's got reasonably good sweet spot and once you get used to it you know exactly what it's going to do. It has a great dwell time on the ball and not that you can make a correction and still get the shot where you want it. Doesn't have as much pop as pure power paddles but it's deceptive as well. Spin control is top notch, and it feels like it's getting better the more I play with it. — Cons: Felt a little awkward at first trying to figure out how to play with it. Started out floating the ball putting too much on it but as it settles down that went away in a couple of weeks. If I have any negative thought on it, it would be that the grip gets a little slick when it gets wet but that's an easy fix!
