Summary

The OM AERO1 is a wide-body pickleball paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel. Weighing 8 ounces, it falls into the midweight category, offering maneuverability while still providing some power. Its 5-inch grip may be less suitable for players who prefer two-handed backhands. The AERO1 has a swing weight of 107, categorized as low and requiring less effort to swing.

With a drive speed of 55.7 mph and a volley speed of 35.5 mph, this paddle may be suited for players prioritizing power and pop. The spin rating is 3.9 out of 10. The twist weight of 6.48 contributes to stability on off-center hits. The paddle's power and pop could be beneficial for aggressive players. However, the lower spin rating might limit spin potential. The wide-body shape may offer a larger sweet spot but could also reduce maneuverability for some.
