Summary

The Speedup Pyro 16 is an elongated paddle with a 16mm EVA foam core, known for its balance of power and control. The Kevlar and carbon fiber face is often associated with durability and a responsive feel. Weighing 8.2 oz with a 6-inch grip, it accommodates two-handed backhands. The Pyro 16 has a high swing weight (123), placing it in the high range, which may provide more power but require more effort to swing. The twist weight is 5.97, offering moderate torsional stability. The longer handle and head-heavy balance (243mm) could benefit players seeking more reach and power. The combination of materials and specifications suggests this paddle may be suitable for intermediate to advanced players looking for a blend of power and control in an elongated format. While the higher swing weight may enhance power, it could also reduce maneuverability for some.
