This is a very soft feeling paddle — Pros: Good sweet spot. Accurate. Good pop. Really spins well. — Cons: To be totally honest I’ve only played with this paddle 4 or 5 times. I purchased it on a try to buy basis. When I think I’m going to hit a deep top spin shot, it doesn’t go deep. About a third of the time my drops end up hitting the nylon and dropping back. I keep going back to my Legacy Pro Air. Too soft.
Best Paddle — Pros: great spin, lots of control and plenty of power if you hiy it in the sweet spot — Cons: could have slightly more power

This is it folks: the Double Black Diamond Control is the best pickleball paddle overall in what offers at this price point. It pulls off something that so many paddles claim but fail to do, giving you a genuine blend of power, control, and spin. It retails for a lot less than its competitors, making it an awesome paddle for a wide range of players.
