The Engage Pickleball Pursuit MAXX EX 6.0 is a standard-shaped paddle with a 16mm polypropylene honeycomb core, a material known for balancing power and control. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel. Weighing 8.2 oz with a 5-inch grip, this paddle may be suitable for players seeking a balance between maneuverability and power. The 117 swing weight (medium) suggests moderate effort is required for swings. Its 16-inch length and 8-inch width are typical of many paddles.
With a spin rating of 5.6/10 and drive/volley speed ratings of 6.1/10 and 5.9/10 respectively, this paddle may offer a blend of spin, power, and quick volleys. The high twist weight rating of 8.1/10 (98th percentile) suggests excellent stability on off-center hits. While the spin and power percentiles are in the 30th-32nd percentile range, the pop percentile (47th) and high twist weight could be beneficial for players focusing on controlled, stable shots. The 5-inch grip may not be ideal for players preferring two-handed backhands.
