Summary
The Adidas PB Drive 2 is a standard-shaped paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The fiberglass face is often associated with a blend of power and touch. Weighing 7.8 oz with a 4.75-inch grip, this paddle is relatively lightweight and may be maneuverable. Its 105 swing weight (low) suggests ease of swing. The twist weight of 7.11, rated 6.95/10 and in the 91st percentile, indicates good resistance to twisting on off-center hits, potentially enhancing control. With a spin rating of 6.0/10 and falling in the 37th percentile, the paddle may offer moderate spin generation. This paddle might be suitable for beginner to intermediate players seeking a balance of power, control, and maneuverability. The lighter weight could benefit players who prefer quick reactions at the net. However, players seeking maximum power or spin might find its performance in these areas limited.
