The Neonic Flare Ti is an all-court paddle with a standard shape, 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, and a titanium and carbon fiber face. The 16mm core thickness contributes to control-oriented gameplay. Polypropylene honeycomb cores are known for a blend of power and control. The combination of titanium and carbon fiber for the face material may offer a balance of power and feel. It weighs 8.1 oz, placing it in the midweight range, and has a 5.5-inch grip. The swing weight is 115, categorized as medium, which may provide a balance between maneuverability and power. Its twist weight of 7.03 is relatively high, suggesting good stability on off-center hits. With a spin rating of 8.2/10 and a drive speed rating of 7.1/10, this paddle could be suitable for intermediate players looking for a balance of spin, power, and control. The relatively high twist weight rating of 6.7/10 may further enhance control. While the paddle offers potential strengths in spin and drive speed, the lower volley speed rating of 5.7/10 may be a consideration for players prioritizing quick net play.
