Summary
The Vatic Pro Flash 14mm is a hybrid-shaped 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 8.1 oz with a 5.3-inch grip, it falls into the midweight category. Its swing weight of 111 is on the lower end of the spectrum, suggesting ease of maneuverability. The paddle's length is 16.3 inches and width is 7.7 inches.
With a spin rating of 7.9 and a spin percentile of 80, this paddle may offer above-average spin potential. However, its drive speed and volley speed ratings (5.8 and 4.3 respectively) and percentiles (27 and 12) suggest it may generate less power and pop compared to other paddles. The twist weight of 6.165 and rating of 4.6 indicate moderate torsional stability.
This paddle might be suitable for intermediate players seeking a balance of control and maneuverability. The lighter weight and lower swing weight could be beneficial for quick exchanges at the net. Players prioritizing power and pop might find this paddle less suitable. The moderate twist weight may provide adequate stability for off-center hits.
