Summary

The Summit by Bison Paddles is an elongated paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. The 7.8 oz weight and 117 swing weight (medium) suggest a balance between maneuverability and power. The 5.5-inch grip accommodates most players. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel, while the polypropylene core is known for its blend of power and control. The elongated shape may provide a larger sweet spot. This paddle might be suitable for intermediate to advanced all-court players seeking a balance of power and control. The 6.5 spin rating and 3.2 twist weight rating indicate moderate spin potential and torsional stability. The medium swing weight could provide sufficient power for drives while maintaining maneuverability. A potential limitation could be the 14mm core, which may not provide as much control as thicker cores.
