Signature 16

The ProXR Signature 16 is an elongated paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. The 16mm core thickness is often associated with control-oriented paddles. Carbon fiber faces are known for their potential to provide a balance of power and control. The elongated shape may offer a larger sweet spot and increased reach. Weighing 8.2 oz with a 108 swing weight (considered low), this paddle could be relatively easy to maneuver. The 5.5-inch grip length is standard. The manufacturer suggests this paddle is suitable for players of all skill levels. The combination of core and face materials may offer a blend of power and control. The low swing weight could be beneficial for players seeking maneuverability and quick reactions. However, players who prefer a heavier paddle for more power might find this paddle lacking. Its twist weight of 5.42, while not extremely low, is in the 6th percentile, suggesting it may be slightly less resistant to twisting on off-center hits compared to other paddles. The spin rating is 4.3 out of 10 and falls in the 19th percentile.
