Love my Franklin — Pros: Great pop, awesome spin. — Cons: None

Franklin
The Franklin FS Tour Dynasty 14mm earns strong praise for its power, spin, and value, with reviewers highlighting its heavy construction and performance for intermediate-advanced players. The main drawback is its weight—both swing weight and static weight are notably high, making it less suitable for players seeking a lighter paddle, and control is adequate but not exceptional for a 14mm thickness.

My thoughts on the newest Franklin — Pros: Great case and grip. Comes with a paddle eraser as well. Great power and spin. High twist weight this feels stable all around. — Cons: On the higher end in swing weight and static weight so avoid if you need a light paddle. Control isn’t terrible for a 14mm but not amazing.

I'm impressed with this comeback from Franklin. The FS Tour Series packs all the top tech and it shows. If you're an intermediate-advanced player who likes heavy paddles that hit hard, the elongated Dynasty is definitely worth considering. It's also one of the best value paddles out there at $150.
