Summary

The Paddletek Tempest Reign PRO is an elongated paddle with a 14.3mm polypropylene honeycomb core and a carbon fiber face. This combination may offer a blend of power and control. Weighing 7.8 oz with a 5.25-inch grip, it falls into the midweight category. The medium swing weight (115) could provide sufficient power without sacrificing maneuverability. The twist weight of 6.05 suggests moderate torsional stability. The carbon fiber face is often associated with control and feel. The elongated shape might offer a larger sweet spot. This paddle may be suitable for intermediate to advanced players seeking a balance between power and control. The lower spin rating (1.4/10) and spin percentile (5th) suggest spin generation may be a potential limitation.
