The ProXR Zane Navratil Signature is a strong all-court paddle for players who find popular thermoformed carbon paddles hard to control. It has less power and pop than other raw carbon paddles, which along with its great spin, gives you accuracy on your drops and dinks. Priced at $209.99, it's a cheaper alternative to a top JOOLA or Selkirk paddle. ProXR paddles remain my sleeper pick for 2024, though I prefer the Standard model because it's even better on control and more forgiving.

ProXR paddle: Paddle had a nice balance to it. Definitely could generate additional spin vs Engage. Was disappointed with the quality of the grip very generic. No ribbing or tackiness.

Paddle Review : The handle is comfortable and small in diameter. Plenty of power in this 14mm paddle. Great graphics and unique looking edge guard.

Great paddle: Love my new Zane paddle. I can create a ton of spin, plenty of power, and I feel much more in control of my drops and drives. When dinking or standing at the kitchen line, I’m able to reach many more balls than before and still get the pace and angles I want…most of the time lol. The weight is great and when blocking hard drives the paddle is very sturdy. Has been an excellent paddle so far and I highly recommend it. This paddle easily brought me from a 4.25 to a 4.30 lol

New Zane Proxr paddle: I bought this paddle at the launch in Mesa with MLP. Love playing with it, the longer handle also doesn't make it feel like it's 8.2 oz. I’ve own the regular Proxr and love them and with the new slim handle for eastern grip they are awesome on the volley.
