Summary

The Ethos Dunamis is a standard-shaped paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The face is composed of Kevlar and carbon fiber, materials often associated with durability and responsiveness. Weighing 7.6 oz with a 5.35” grip, it falls into the lightweight category, potentially offering maneuverability. The swing weight is low at 100, further enhancing ease of swing. The paddle's twist weight is 6.18, suggesting moderate torsional stability.

With a drive speed of 52.4 mph and a volley speed of 33.8 mph, the Dunamis may be suitable for players prioritizing control and touch over outright power. The spin rating of 4.5/10 suggests moderate spin potential. The relatively thin core may provide decent power for its weight, while the lightweight construction could benefit players with shorter swings or those seeking quick reactions at the net. However, players seeking maximum power or a very head-heavy feel might find this paddle less suitable.
