Summary

The Ronbus Ripple.R2.14 is a standard-shaped paddle with a 14mm carbon fiber core and a carbon fiber face. Carbon fiber is known for its potential to provide both power and control. Weighing 7.8 oz with a 5.5-inch grip, it falls into the midweight category. Its swing weight of 104 is considered low, suggesting ease of maneuverability. The 14mm core thickness may contribute to a balance of power and control. This paddle may be suitable for a wide range of players, from intermediate to advanced, seeking a blend of power and control. With high spin (2131 RPM), drive speed (56 MPH), and volley speed (36 MPH) ratings, this paddle could offer strong offensive capabilities. The relatively low twist weight of 6.15 might make it slightly less stable on off-center hits for some players. The high spin and power ratings (94th and 94th percentile, respectively) suggest potential for generating spin and powerful shots.
